Foreshadowing
Climax
The climax is the highest or most intense point in the development or resolution of something; culmination. Where everything comes together and questions are answered. The climax is not always at the very end of a story.
Plot Twist
A plot twist is a story development that readers do not expect in which either something shocking happens or something shocking is revealed. Generally, the storyteller will set up expectations and then "twist" those expectations by revealing new information.
Famous plot twists include:
Darth Vader's reveal as Luke's father in The Empire Strikes Back.
Norman Bates' true nature in Psycho.
the revelation that the protagonist in The Sixth Sense is actually a ghost.
Alliteration
Alliteration is a literary technique which occurs when two or more words are linked that share the same first consonant sound, such as “fish fry.” Thus, it is the repetition of usually initial consonant sounds in two or more neighboring words or syllables.
Examples:
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Sally sells seashells by the sea shore.
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
“Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation,” Martin Luther King.
