Answer 2

d) the pleasing sound of alliteration makes the ideas and Proverbs seem true ​

Step-by-step explanation:

Alliteration refers to the repetition of the same sound or letter at the beginning of contiguous or nearby words. Thus, since proverbs are short statements which express general truths, the funny occurrence of adjacent sounds from alliteration makes them rhyme and gives them melody, which makes them easier to remember and to be accepted as words of wisdom.
