ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Clanging

Clanging is like playing with words that sound the same or very similar to make a silly or funny sentence. It's almost like a game where you try to find words that make the same sound and put them together in a sentence.

For example, if we wanted to use clanging to make a silly sentence, we could say, "I saw a dog fog jog with a log in the smog." In this sentence, all of the words have the same "og" sound, so it sounds kind of funny and playful.

People sometimes use clanging when they want to be silly or make a joke. It's a way of playing with language in a fun and creative way.
