  • : THis THin THing THat THe man used to eat with is a fork.
  • My Mother's Maiden name is Smith.

  • A iambic is a special intonation in a line of a poem but I don't know any details about this, sorry.

An alliteration is when there are more than two or three words in a sentence starting with the same sound e.g.:

THis THin THing THat THe man used to eat with is a fork.
My Mother's Maiden name is Smith.
Peter Piper Picked Pickled Peppers...

A iambic is a special intonation in a line of a poem but I don't know any details about this, sorry.

I only saw Germany one time for a few hours when riding in a car
from where the ferry from the UK docked in Germany. On the way
north to Denmark for a month's visit there I saw mostly only German
