4 Review- Unlocking Shakespeare Vocabulary
Remember: Most of Shakespeare’s words will have notes in the margins. If you don’t understand what is going on, look there. If you ignore the margins, that is your own fault. They contain valuable information! Shakespeare invented a lot of words, and many we still use today. Review- Unlocking Shakespeare Vocabulary

5 Review- Unlocking Shakespeare Meter and Rhythm
Iambic Pentameter- not exclusive to Shakespeare Shakespeare uses it a lot, but also uses prose Shakespeare makes changes in HOW he presents his character’s dialogue to convey meaning People don’t talk in iambic pentameter on purpose, nor do they perform it with such a strong cadence Review- Unlocking Shakespeare Meter and Rhythm

6 What is “this” in the last line?
Shall I compare you to a summer’s day? You are more lovely and more calm (than a summer’s day) := because There are rough winds that shake delicate buds during May, And summer doesn’t stay around for very long Sometimes it is too hot in the summer And often the sun is covered by clouds And every beautiful thing might grow old/be less beautiful By chance, or just by natural decay But your eternal beauty will not fade Nor will you lose possession of the beauty that you own Death (personified) won’t be able to brag that you’re in his company Because in lines you will continue to grow So long as men can breathe or eyes can see So long lives this, and this gives life to you. What is “this” in the last line?
