Onomatopoeia is the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named for example: "Jingle bells, jingle bells...", "Baa baa black sheep have you any wool?", or "Twinkle twinkle little star..."? Whereas alliteration is an occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words for example, "She sells sea-shells down by the sea-shore"

Personification is when human qualities are attributed to non-human things, while onomatopoeia is when words mimic the sound they describe. Personification gives human-like traits to non-human entities, making them more relatable, whereas onomatopoeia uses sound associations to create a sensory experience for the reader or listener.
