Asssonance and Alliteration are of different types of sounds. The correction is C.

There are five vowels sounds in English language, namely: A, E, I, O, U. When one of these vowel sounds is repeated by using different words, that is assonance.

Therefore, Assonance is simply the repetition of same vowel sound within different words in a phrase, sentence, paragraph, or in a line of poetry.

Example of Assonance

The different bolded words in the above example have the same vowels sounds repeated.

But, Alliteration is the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning or neighboring words or words closely put together. The consonant sounds in English language are 21, which are [b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, y, z].

Some of the Examples of alliteration

NOTE: In alliteration, the sounds must be consonant, then this consonant must be of the same kind at the beginning each word. just like it appeared in the example above.

Alliteration and assonance are of different sounds because in'' Assonance'', repetition of sounds is within different words while in alliteration, repetition of same sounds begins different words.
