Etymology
The term was coined in modern Chinese linguistics by combining the character 头 (meaning 'head/start') and 韵 (meaning 'rhyme/sound'), to calque the English concept of alliteration.
Memory Aid
Break the word into two parts: 头 means 'beginning', 韵 means 'sound' — remember it as matching sounds at the beginning of words.
