Age-related macular degeneration (AMD or ARMD) is the most common cause of vision loss in those aged over 50. It causes a gradual loss of central (but not peripheral) vision. Central vision is needed for detailed work and for things like reading and driving. The disease does not lead to complete blindness.
Definition of Dissonance Dissonance is the use of impolite, harsh-sounding, and unusual words in poetry. In other words, it is a deliberate use of inharmonious words, phrases, or syllables intended to create harsh sounding effects.
Assonance likewise, is the repetition of Vowels. Consonance is the repetition of Consonants. Like Rhyme and Alliteration, Consonance and Assonance give your story or poem a more unified SOUND. Any time a sound is repeated the reader or listener feels that sense of harmony or continuity. It is not a coincidence that the definition of Consonance is accord or agreement, or also harmony of sound.
