Assonance is often subtler than alliteration because it involves the repetition of vowel sounds, which are less noticeable compared to the repetition of consonant sounds in alliteration. Vowels are more fluid and can blend into the surrounding sounds, making assonance less conspicuous. Additionally, assonance tends to create a more internal rhyme scheme, adding a more subtle rhythmic element to the text.
The repetition of consonant sounds in a sentence is called alliteration. The repetition of vowel sounds is called assonance. Alliteration: "big, bouncing, beautiful balls" Assonance: "fat-assed amateurs"
Alliteration is used more in adverts than assonance because it creates a catchy and memorable rhythm that can easily grab attention. The repetition of initial consonant sounds makes slogans and brand names more impactful and easier to recall. Additionally, alliteration can convey a sense of excitement or urgency, making it effective for marketing purposes. In contrast, assonance, which involves the repetition of vowel sounds, is often subtler and may not have the same immediate appeal in advertising contexts.

No they are not. Alliteration is the use of several words beginning with the same sound, like 'round the rugged rocks'. Assonance is similarity of vowel sounds in nearby words, such as the long 'a' sound in 'about the glade in a frail agony of grace she trailed her rags ' As you can see it's much more subtle.
Consonant sounds tend to be stronger than vowel sounds.
No. It is more properly an example of consonance or alliteration because of the repeating 'n' consonant sounds (consonance) at the beginning of the words (alliteration). Assonance occurs when there is a repeating vowel sound.
Alliteration is a poetic device that appears as repeated sounds, at stressed syllables. The word alliteration itself is alliteration; it is marked by the double "L" sound at the stressed syllable. While it contains also a repeated "A" sound, the A's are at unstressed syllables, therefore non-alliterated.There are three sub-forms of alliteration: assonance, consonance, and sibilance.Assonance:The repetition of vowel sounds within a line of verse for the purpose of supporting or continuing internal rhyme.Consonance:The repetition of consonant sounds within a line of verse for the purpose of supporting or continuing half or slant rhyme.Sibilance:The repetition of sibilants or "ss" sounds in a line of verse. Sibilance is more accurately a special form of consonance.All assonance, consonance, and sibilance are alliteration, but not all alliteration is assonance, consonance, or sibliance.
