Question



Which one of the following is sometimes called ‘vocalic rhyme’?

A.

Assonance

B.

Personification

C.

Alliteration

D.

Rhyme

Correct option is A


Assonance is sometimes referred to as "vocalic rhyme" because it involves the repetition of similar vowel sounds in closely positioned words. This creates a subtle harmony and rhythm in poetry or prose.
For example: “The light of the fire is a sight to admire.” The repetition of the vowel sound “i” in “light,” “fire,” “sight,” and “admire” is assonance.
