  • Answer:

False.

  • Explanation:

A pun is not a literary work, but a rhetorical device which consists in the use of words similar in form or sound, but in different senses, close to one another in order to create an unexpected effect on the listener or reader. That is, it is an ambiguous game of words with sounds similar or alike, but with different meanings and applications. Puns are one of the rhetorical resources most used in humorous and advertising speeches.

One of the techniques which is frequently used and which can be often observed in our everyday lives - news, movies, entertainment sector - is Alliteration.

The similar sound of the initial words/first letter in a line/sentence is alliteration. When there is repetition of the letter that produces the same sound while pronouncing, it creates a pattern in how we understand that sentence.

Here, 'float free' is an example of alliteration - <u>f </u>loat <u>f </u>ree - similar sound of initial words. In alliteration, the words of which first letters are repetitive and have a similarity in sound are always consonants.
