"Alliteration "

I thought it was but an online dictionary says that applies to words beginning with the same sounds not merely letters. ie Pe is |= Pi

I've never understood how Peter picked a peck of PICKLED peppers. How were they pickled before being picked?

Maybe picked as in chose rather than picked as in plucked from a plant.

Many thanks for the replies.

Its not Onnomatapea ( spelling huh).

On a wider reading it is Alliteration as other sources require only the same starting consonant.

re a query : Perhaps Peter pissed on the peppers before he picked them?

Malapropisms are even better.

It was reported in New Scientist that an office worker had described a colleague as "a vast suppository of information" (i.e., repository or depository). The worker then apologised for his "Miss-Marple-ism" (i.e. malapropism).[20] New Scientist noted this as possibly the first time anyone had uttered a malapropism for the word malapropism itself.

Is that stupidity squared?
