Consonance

Consonance: The repetition of a consonant sound within two or more words in close proximity.



" Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked? "


This is an example of consonance because of the consonance letter"p". The sound of the "p" is used in all the sentences of this tongue twister.
