March 23, 200719 yr What is the name of those things? You know the rhyming descriptions. Like Sinister Minister Funny Bunny Bug Thug Smelly Deli What are they called in general? like the crow, raven and everything are called birds orion and draco are called constellations F-14 Tomcat F-71 blackbird are called jets what are these things called? Lol, yeah i know this is funny but i am just curious. I have been wanting to figure what these things were called a for like the last week, someone help me?
March 23, 200719 yr I believe that qualifies as alliteration. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
March 23, 200719 yr alliteration only counts for the beginning syllables edit: ie. Bruce Banner Clark Kent :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
March 23, 200719 yr Ah, well. :( I don't think there's a specific name for it then... Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
March 23, 200719 yr Author no no I know like the descriptive meaning but I think they are called Honky Tonks or something I dunno lol.. Read it in a book
March 23, 200719 yr Cockney Rhyming Slang? I'm not sure. :? nah cockney rhyming slang is completely different. I wont embaress myself by trying to give examples.
March 23, 200719 yr I'm not quite sure if it has anything to do with Nurse rhymes. -=Aznhuskarl=- Cleric-=20Cent=- JuggernaughtMore to come...
March 23, 200719 yr The technical name for it is "True Rhyme," but I believe you are looking for something different. ~~Let The Dragon ride again, on the winds of time~~I've always felt as if I'm the only person who can understand the concept of sarcasm on the internet.
March 23, 200719 yr I think you're looking for assonance. That is your answer. Consecutive rhyming words create an assonance. EG: Dream Team. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
March 23, 200719 yr Those are all rhyming epithets. I don't actually know a word for that sort of thing in general -- I'm not entirely sure there is one. They do rhyme, and they have assonance, but these are not names for the things themselves. deviantart account
