Question

What is a example of reversed word in Romeo and Juliet in Act 2 Scene 4-6

Answer 1

The reversed word that Shakespeare uses in “Romeo and Juliet” are “upfill,” “nightall,” and “rightall.”

Shakespeare uses the technique of reversing the word order in his dialogues of the characters. He did this as it was easier to rhyme the verbs than the nouns which gave his plays a different rhythm and tone. He had used this technique mainly in his play “Romeo and Juliet” to create a comic relief throughout the play.
