Is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in stressed syllables?

When the sounds are at the beginning of a word, it's called alliteration. Most tongue twisters have alliteration, like "Sally sells seashells by the seashore". The "s" and 'sh" sounds are examples of alliteration here. When consonant sounds are repeated in the middles or ends of words, it's called consonance, like "some mammals are clammy". When vowel sounds repeat, it's called assonance. One example is in the tongue twister above, in the long "e" sound, but it can also be something like "mellow wedding bells" (Poe, "The Bells").

What is an alliteration with x?

Alliteration deals not with letters of the alphabet, but with phonetic sounds. /x/ is a phonetic symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet, but it is not a sound that is particularly common in most forms of English, especially American English. The final sound in "loch" is one of the rare examples. The only way to make an alliterative sentence with the letter x, then, is to find words that all start with x but also all make the same phonetic sound. Since x can stand in for several different sounds, this can be difficult. Here is an example: Xenophon xeroxed xerophytic xiphisternums of Xanadu.
