Question

Find an example of alliteration in the para gaily o gaily ..............................a pearl on a string​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Alliteration is a poetic technique or literary stylistic device where a series of words in a sentence have the same first consonant sound. In other words: alliteration is when the beginning sound of words are repeated in close succession. For example:

Peter Piped Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers

Alliteration is focused on the sound of a word and not the letters in the word. So for example, “k” and “c” could both be used alliteratively (cherry cookies in the kitchen). Words do not need to be directly next to each other in the sentence to be alliteration. This is often the case but filler words like “the” and “in” are regularly used.
