Characterized by or containing assonance; featuring the repetition of vowel sounds.
From Latin 'assonans' (sounding toward), present participle of 'assonare.' The '-ant' ending is a common Latin adjectival suffix.
A poet might deliberately write 'assonant' lines where the vowels echo each other—'the deep sleep creeps' is 'assonant,' and while it sounds a bit silly, it's a powerful literary tool when used well.
