Answer 1

Answer:

1. Soliloquy - extended speech by one character alone on stage (in a soliloquy, the speaker isn't addressing anyone. It's as if time pauses for the speaker to say their thoughts alone. Mostly towards oneself. Also, soliloquy comes from "solus" = alone, and "loqui" = to speak)

2. Aside - lines spoken by one character that aren't heard by other characters (like talking to the audience/4th wall break)

3. Sonnet - poetic form with 14 lines in a defined structure & strict rhyme scheme (Usually done by Shakespeare)

4. Monologue - extended speech by one character speaking in the presence of others. (in a monologue, the speaker is usually addressing others in a long-winded manner[whether audience or other characters])

5. Iambic Parameter - form of poetry with ten syllables per line in an unstressed/stressed pattern
