We had to learn alliteration in seventh grade US English class, where we were told in no uncertain terms that we would fail the class if we didn't master it with examples.

Another word in this category was assonance which as seventh graders we found quite useful for various purposes during instructional hiatus.

Guy is pleased he learned something new today, what you replied sounds a lot like a put-down. Just a few minutes ago I learnt of the satanic sounding Cacodyl Cyanide but i'm sure a ton of chemists are very familiar with it. Learn and let learn.
