Proper alliteration is NOT a repetition of letters; it is a repetition of sound. For example, never and knight are alliterate because they begin with the same consonant sound. Ex: The Knight never rode to Norway However, even though tin and thank begin with the same letter, they do not alliterate because they don’t begin with the same consonant sound. Ex: Thank you for my Tin ring

Tongue Twisters are examples of alliterative poetry How much wood would a woodchuck chuck If a woodchuck would chuck wood? A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could chuck If a woodchuck would chuck wood.
