The poem The Raven?

Question

Where in lines 13 - 18 and 37 - 42 is alliteration used to create onomatopoeia?

Answer 1

I don't have the poem in front of me but ono.. is like "buzz" where you can hear the sound within the word, and alliteration is where a vowel is repetitive like: The old mold sold gold.

Answer 2

Onomatopoeia is the use of words that sound like the things they name -- "splash" and "thud," for example.

Laura Bean is wrong about alliteration.  Alliteration is the repetition of sounds at the start of words: "My mother made meatloaf" (repeats the "m" sound),  "He's dumber than dirt" (repeats the "d" sound), "I was caught in the cold and froze my fingers" (repeats the "c" and "f" sounds).

Answer 3

Lines 13 - 18: "Silken sad uncertain rustling"

Lines 37 - 42: "Many a flirt and flutter"
