A literary device that involves each word of a sentence or phrase (generally three words or more) beginning with the same letter. Alliteration can be used to draw attention to an important point or phrase, for emphasis, or just because it sounds better.
"What was worse was when what woke Willa went west with William" is a prime example of alliteration.
