1. A. Meter is a beat or rhythm of poetry.

Poets create meter using specific syllable patterns. The length of lines and punctuation can also help to create meter. Iambic pentameter is a specific pattern of meter with 5 iambs per line. Each iamb is made of 2 syllables, the first is unstressed and the second stressed.

2. C. Iamb is two syllable meter with the accent on the second syllable.

An iamb is made up of 2 syllables. The first syllable is unstressed and the second syllable is stressed. A common metric structure is iambic pentameter. It was a common meter used by William Shakespeare.

3. B. A trochee is two syllable meter with the accent on the first syllable.

Trochee is the opposite of an iamb. The 2 syllable foot begins with a stressed syllable and is followed by an unstressed syllable.

4. D. Vernacular is common or everyday language.

This is everyday speech and common language. This includes writing that is in an informal tone.

5. E. A stanza is a group of lines in a poem.

A stanza is like a poem paragraph. Some poem structures have a specific number of stanzas or rhyme scheme within a stanza. Other poem structures have lines complete repeat from one stanza to another.
