Answer 2

is alliteration the correct answer

Answer 3

onomatopoeia

Answer 4

No, onomatopoeia refers to words that imitate or suggest the sound of what they describe, such as "buzz," "crash," or "hiss". The example given does not include any onomatopoeic words. The correct answer in this case would be alliteration, as it is the repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of multiple words in the phrase "comb," "rake," and "thought."

Answer 5

Yes, alliteration is the correct answer. Alliteration is a stylistic technique that involves the repetition of the same sound or letter at the beginning of multiple words in a phrase or sentence. In the example given, the repetition of the "th" sound in "comb," "rake," and "thought" is an example of alliteration.
