Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | An iamb is a pair of syllables where the stress falls on the second one - ba-DUM (if it goes DUM-ba it's a trochee). Pentameter is verse with five stressed syllables (tetrameter has four, heptameter has seven, etc), so iambic pentameter has five iambs (usually ten syllables, but odd unstressed ones at the beginning or end don't affect the meter much). This kind of verse is very common in Shakespeare, as in for example "Un-EA-sy LIES the HEAD that WEARS a CROWN" (Henry IV Part 2). This trope can apply to any poetic dialogue though. |
