makhyia7812:

how does shakespeahere make certain lines within his plays seem more important than others?

Valirium:

Is this multiple choice? If so, could you post them as it may help with answering? (:

makhyia7812:

A- by having some lines contain more than 10 syllables B- by capitalizing some words so they are spoken with more force C- by shortening words to fit within the meter of the line D- by using old-fashioned word with hidden meanings

Valirium:

I would say A, because he used Iambic Pentameter (about 10 syllables) to help the audience understand what he, or the actors/actresses, were saying.

Valirium:

Also, it was to aid in the memorization of the actors/actresses.
