Each line contains ten syllables

An iamb is only two syllables but Shakespeare's lines are made of 10 syllables. It's called iambic pentameter because two syllables (one unstressed and one stressed) five (penta) times equals 10 for the meter. Meter in poetry is the rhythm of the line or poem.

Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter in most of his poetry and plays because it is the meter most similar to everyday speech. This made it easier for performers to memorize and perform.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Based on The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, the  statement that best describes the influence Thomas Young had on the work of Jean-François Champollion is Through changes made to some of Young's findings, Champollion was able to decipher some of the Rosetta Stone hieroglyphs.

Explanation:

Thomas Young and Jean-François Champollion were considered rivals, but ironically they work indirectly together since Thomas Young was the first in deciphering the Rosetta Stone hieroglyphs, but after being incapable of finish it, Jean-François Champollion succeeded after taking young's prior work and complemented it to fully decipher it.
