Alliteration is when you use a bunch of similar consonants in a row; assonance is when you use a bunch of similar vowel sounds in a row; onomatopoeia is basically sound effects.

Alliteration- the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words

Assonance- is a resemblance in the sounds of words/syllables either between their vowels or between their consonants
