What is an active voice? I got 5 of these questions and I had no idea of what it was. I tried using context clues but it was so confuzzlign!!!
a kind of humorous verse of five lines, in which the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines, which are shorter, form a rhymed couplet.
What is the difference between a ballad, and a normal poem? I had about 7 questions involving ballads, and I was wondering what the difference is between a ballad and other types of poems.
Marium: a poem or song narrating a story in short stanzas. Traditional ballads are typically of unknown authorship, having been passed on orally from one generation to the next.
Ernest: I can't find what a iambic decameter is but there is iambic pentameter.
