Parachesis
Well hello there, little friend! Parachesis is a really big word, and it means when you use two words that start with the same letter or sound, right next to each other.
For example, if you say "Silly Sally," those two words both start with the letter S, so that's an example of parachesis.
People use parachesis to make their words sound really fun and playful, almost like a little rhyme.
So, next time you're talking to your friends or reading a book and you hear two words that start with the same sound, you can tell them that's called parachesis!
