Partial correspondence in sounds of words (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

assonance

(Other definitions for assonance that I've seen before include "as spring sprung demonstrates?" , "Partial correspondence" , "sound agreement" , "In poetry, resemblance in the sounds of words" , "Correspondence in sound" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
