Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound at the start of a series of words in succession whose purpose is to provide an audible pulse that gives a piece of writing a lulling, lyrical, and/or emotive effect.

The correct answer is: Yes


    Answer - Yes. 'An', 'ant', and 'attacking' are the alliterated words. Because all the words are starting in 'a' and has consonant pronounciation. According to english language, 'a' is a vowel but according to phonetics, 'a' sound is consonant based on its context. So, it is alliterated.
