I would need the poem or the phrases from the poem in order to determine which two contain alliteration. Please provide the poem or list the phrases.
To determine which two phrases from the poem contain alliteration, we need to understand what alliteration is. Alliteration is a literary device where the same consonant sound is repeated at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.
Now, let's examine the phrases in the poem and identify any examples of alliteration:
1. "Sally sells seashells by the seashore."
2. "The cat and the fiddle."
3. "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."
4. "She sells sea shells."
5. "The naughty nun cannot say no."
To find the two phrases that contain alliteration, listen for the repetition of the same initial consonant sound in close proximity.
In this case, the two correct answers would be:
1. "Sally sells seashells by the seashore." (repetition of the "s" sound)
2. "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers." (repetition of the "p" sound)
So, the two phrases that contain alliteration in the poem are "Sally sells seashells by the seashore" and "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."
