ALLITERATION

(803 Posts)

Definition: Alliteration is the repetition of the initial letter or sound in two or more closely associated words.

Rules: List them alphabetically in sentences, one per post. They can be as sensible or as silly as you like, provided they are sentences.

Examples:

Messy Martha Maddox makes matching motorbikes.

Voluptuous Vicky likes vineyard vino.

Daring Duncan drives down dirty ditches.

You can make them as long as you like:

Poor Pandora Peterson pricks pears, pares pineapples, poaches potatoes, prepares porridge, proudly pleasing Peter Parkinson's peculiar, particular, pedantic panderings.

Or as short as this:

Dora danced.

Anything is good, provided you post them in alphabetical order. Feel free to omit X.

Rehearsal’s really rather raucous: Ron’s rioting, Richard’s rabbiting, Roland’s roaring.

Laura loves lettuce leaves, lollipops, lemonade. Lionel likes langoustine, lasagne, legumes .... leftovers. Ludicrous!

helpmate, hires hovercraft, heads Hawaii.
