English

I believe that “chat” is stressed/accented and “el” is unstressed. Similar to the word “present,” where emphasis/accent is placed on “pres.” Hope this helps!

The syllable that should be accented in "chattel" is "chat".

A syllable is the smallest unit of word. Furthermore, it can influence the stress pattern in a specific word. In that way, a word can have one or two stressed syllables and more unstressed syllables.

The word "chattel" has two syllables "chat" and "tel" and it has only one stressed syllable ("chat"). It is called 'stressed syllable' to the syllable that is emphasized or pronounced louder than others. In addition, vowels in a stressed syllable are pronounced longer and at a higher pitch.

How does the structure of this Italian sonnet by Petrarch support its theme?
seropon [69]
In my opinion, the correct answer is D. <span>The octave builds an idea about love, while the sestet comments on that idea. This is a typical structure of a Petrarchan sonnet, where the octave presents a problem, and the sestet resolves it. In this particular case, the octave is about love that the poet feels for his beloved. We only suspect that something isn't right, and only in the last line of the octave we see that the beloved has probably died: "</span><span>Are now but dust, poor dust, that nothing knows." The sestet talks about this love in contrast with the way it did in the octave; it talks about the speaker's grief and the impossibility to live a meaningful life without her.</span>
