I sort of understand how alliterations work... however when it comes to short phrases im not entirely sure...
Is this an alliteration
"Through this toilsome..."
and "Once and only once..."
Thanks

close enough to count as allieteration

Those are not quite alliterations. The words in the first one begin with the same letter, but it isn't complete, either as a phrase or as a sentence.
Through this toilsome time, Tommy tried to triumph.
The second one introduces 'and' in the middle of three 'o' words, so it breaks the alliterative pattern.

Hm..that's annoying perhaps~ Audacious alliteration? truthfully alliteration? spectacular alliteration? lovable alliteration? Acknowledging alliteration? Aquatic alliteration? Alaskan alliteration? Aborigine's alliterations? nameless alliteration? American alliteration? appearing alliteration? Admitting alliteration? Academy alliteration? ability alliteration? action alliteration? haha purely some strategies! =]

yes.
Alliterations are phrases that start with the same letter, so yours count. =] Usually, "and' doesn't really matter in the alliteration.
