English

Hi there!

Here are a few examples of iambs!

There are a lot of examples of iambs, here are a few!  “Delay,” “Abscond,” and “Attack,” or with four syllables like “Unquestioning,” “Adorable,” and “Comedienne.” There are also plenty of idioms in English that demonstrate iambic meter: A bitter pill.

I hope this helps!

(I don't really know if this is what you are looking for because there are no choices provided with your question (if there are any choices) but I sure hope this is what you are looking for and I also hope that it is correct, (I mean it should be, i found them in the Dictionary)  Have a good day!

(May I please have brainliest?)

Answer:

Compare

Explanation:

The term iamb stems from Greek poetry. It referred to a short syllable followed by a long one.

Iamb is a type of metrical foot in poetry. It determines the rhythmic measure in the lines of a poem.

An iamb consists of two syllables, the first of them is unstressed and the second stressed.

How does Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.

Explanation:

Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory in the excerpt in the passage affects its meaning because it shows that Cassius thinks Brutus is too optimistic, that is, Brutus expect they would win the war.

Cassius is trying to ask Brutus if he could face the humiliation of losing the battle and be led through the street of Time as trophy.

This means that there are two consequences of fighting a war, either to lose or to win.

Loosing means to be paraded as trophy and winning means to parade the losers as trophy.
