Sure! Here are the definitions for each literary device:
Simile
A simile is a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two unlike things using connecting words such as "like" or "as." It highlights similarities between the two things to create a vivid image or more profound understanding.
Example: "Her laughter was like music to my ears."
Alliteration
Alliteration is a stylistic literary device that involves the repetition of the same initial consonant sound in a series of words or phrases. This technique is often used in poetry and prose to create rhythm, enhance mood, or make phrases more memorable.
Example: "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."
Rhyme
Rhyme is the repetition of similar sounds in the final stressed syllables of two or more words, typically at the ends of lines in poetry. Rhyme enhances the musical quality of a piece and can create patterns that are pleasing to the ear.
Example: "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, / How I wonder what you are."
