Sound devices are techniques used in writing to create a musical quality or enhance the emotional impact of a piece. Common examples include alliteration, where the same consonant sound is repeated at the beginning of words, and rhyme, which involves matching sounds at the end of lines. These devices can make poetry and prose more engaging and memorable. Another important sound device is assonance, the repetition of vowel sounds within words, which can create rhythm and mood. Onomatopoeia is also significant, as it uses words that imitate natural sounds, like "buzz" or "sizzle." Together, these devices enrich the reading experience and deepen the connection to the text.
