Answer:
ALLITERATION is the figure of speech used in the above line.
Answer:
Alliteration is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Alliteration occurs when two or more words beginning with the same sound appear again in a phrase or sentence. Alliteration is produced by the repeating sound, not by the same letter.
For example, 'tasty tacos' is an alliteration, but 'thirty typist' is not since the letters 'th' and 'ty' do not sound alike. Alliteration is a sort of repetition in which sounds are repeated.
Words that begin with the same sound do not have to be in close proximity to be termed alliteration. There is no rule stating how many words apart they can be, but reading aloud is the best way to determine if alliteration is employed in a piece of literature. The sound will undoubtedly tickle your ears!
