It's not alliteration if all of the words start with vowels.

Edit - my definition of assonance sucks. My bad.

Indeed, that would be assonance. AAAaAA?

I did not know this! I love learning new things 😀


Assonance is rhyming vowel sounds in a sentence

ex: He eats the raw meats but not the beets, no you're not done so keep your seat.

Assonance being the rhyming of the vowel E in a few of those words. This is the basis for a lot of rap music.

Yup, alliteration = beginning, regardless if it's a vowel or consonant.

My mistake. But what do you call "vowel alliteration" then? Is there even a term for it?
