The words jump and stunt are examples of which sound device? A. alliteration B. consonance C. assonance D. onomatopoeia
Let me help:)
Can you tell me what alliteration is?
sadly no
Okay :) Do you know what any of those poetry vocab words mean?
I have bad memory
Don't worry about it :) I can still help you.
Alliteration is the repetition of the beginning sounds of words like.... Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers. Do you see how the beginning sounds of the words are the same?
ya
Okay, do JUMP and STUNT have the same beginning sounds?
no...
Okay :) so you can rule out alliteration.
ok
Consonance is the repetition on consonant sounds (Repetition of sound of any letters other than A, E, I, O, or U)
I'll attach a file of an example.
Once you view that, let me know if you understand that concept and tell me if JUMP and STUNT have consonance.
i have to go
Okay, anyways alliteration is the repetition of vowel sounds, and onomatopoeia is words that sound like their actions. the answer is onomatopoeia.
I hope that I helped you :)
