 pentameter, trochaic hexameter. Hi friends, welcome to my channel. Are these literary tones and big pentameter, trochaic hexameter sounds great to you? If yes, then don't worry, we'll be exploring all these tones in our video today so that by the end of this video you will have crystal clear clarity about all the literary meters, what it means to be called as iambic pentameter, how is a poem written in my ambic pentameter drippers from a poem written in trochaic hexameter. We will be exploring all these tones in our video today but before that let me give you example of two very famous poetry and let us see how these two poems differ from each other. The first poem is Tiger Tiger by William Blake and the poem begins with Tiger Tiger burning bright in the forest of the night. The second poem is Break Break Break by Lord Alfred Tennyson and the poem begins with Break Break Break on that cold grey stones OC and I would that my tongue could utter the thoughts that arise in me. Now let's see how these two poems are different from each other. The first poem we find that it's rhymes the words the ending words rhyme, rhyme is repetition of sounds and two words like can and man, gold and hold. So these are rhyming words you've been related to on bachpan mein rhymes perfect in nursery rhymes. So all those nursery rhymes have words to last me similar sound ke vote de jay se twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder who you are. So are and star these are so in the first poem by William Blake Tiger Tiger burning bright in the forest of the night so bright and night are rhyming words. In the second poem we find that the words don't rhyme. So how does that poem differs from poetry because ek poem ko poem hone ke liye hame aisa lukta tha hum isha rhyme ki zar rata hai. If a poem rhymes then that is poem agar agar po rhyme nahi karati then how does that sound very musical so that is what meter is meter or rhythm we have rhyme and we have rhythm. These are the two components which give musical quality to a poem. So if we talk about rhythm rhythm and meter are one and the same thing and meter is the one which gives musical sound to a piece. koi bhi musical piece aap sunthe hain koi song sunthe hain tha hain. aap depe hain aapin lines rhyme nahin karati koi bhi boiler word ya english song aap suni hai to aap deke hi ki lines rhyme nahin karri hai. But still they have a beat da da da da da this kind of effect is there in the poetry that comes from rhythm. So we'll be talking about rhythm in detail in this video because rhythm se hi later he will come to know what is a big pentameter, what is troke ek exameter and what are the other meters in the poetry and how these meters affect the tone and the musical quality of the poetry. So let's start. Now in order to understand rhythm ya meter we need to first look at the poetry structure how a poem is composed. So if you see any poem the poems has lines okay so we have lines each line has foot and foot are made up of syllable so we have lines which is made up of foot foot is made up of syllables now lines we all know so I don't need to explain that but in this video I'll be talking about syllables and foot and syllables and foot ki combination se different tari ki rhythm banti hai we have iambic pentameter which uses another type of foot we have troke ek exameter which uses another type of foot. So let's first understand syllable then we'll be understanding foot and then at the end we'll see how different kind of foot combined together to make different kind of poetry meters. So let's start with syllable first. Syllable is a sound in a word okay kaya words rote hain jhein mein ek syllable hota hai jaisi sleep sleep ek saath gola gata hai sleep so it has one syllable then we have words like thank you it has two syllable thank you two syllable ek word ki andar bhi bohat saale syllable ho sata hai jaisi guitar guitar do sound nikalte hai jab hum guitar bohte guitar guitar guitar so two syllables amazing three syllable amazing amazing whenever we say that amazing three sounds nikal re amazing understand understand understand three syllables again so ek word ki andar do teen chaar kitne bhi syllables ho sata hai depending upon the sounds just jitne sound just word we contain hai so we have looked at syllable we can have one syllable two syllable three syllable in a single word now let's look at what are the types of syllables we have strong syllable and weak syllable strong syllables are words sounds jyur thode se zada tez gole jata hai jaisi guitar guitar word me tar is more loud than ghee guitar louder tar is louder than ghee so that makes tar as a strong syllable and ghee as a weak syllable so it's a combination of guitar one week syllable followed by a strong syllable strong syllable ko hum isha bold mein denote kiya chata hai similarly we can have a phrase to sleep to sleep two words two syllables two is lesser pronounced hum aise nahi bolte to sleep we say to sleep upar ki tara chata hai two thoda sa jeere hota hai jeere jeere sleep thoda sa upar hota hai so to sleep weak syllable followed by a strong syllable thank you thank you nahi bolte hum thank you thank is a strong syllable you is a weak syllable so ab aateke gitaar mein a weak syllable followed by a strong syllable then we have thank you a strong syllable followed by a weak syllable so is tari ke combinations hota hai now let's look at foot foot is a group of strong and weak syllable or a combination of strong and weak syllable hum ne dekha syllables make foot and foot makes a line so syllable is single sound guitar has two syllables now if we take a word sleep it has one syllable guitar and sleep will together come under the category of foot two sleep will become a foot it contains one weak syllable and one strong syllable similarly we have guitar guitar itself is a foot because we have a weak syllable followed by a strong syllable now let's look at some common type of foot first one is ayam ayam is a kind of foot in which we have one weak syllable followed by one strong syllable like gitaar to sleep we have second example of foot which is toki toki is a kind of foot which has one strong syllable followed by one weak syllable example baseball thank you third type of foot is called anapest it has two weak syllable followed by one strong syllable example understand in the dark in the dark three syllables understand three syllables then we have anapest ke baadne de fourth kind of foot is diktile diktile has two strong syllable followed by one weak syllable example this is a this is a strong syllable is a is a two weak syllable camera kya me rah three syllables in a single word then we have other common types of foot we have pondi which has two strong syllable we have another phyric which has two weak syllable so these are some common types of foot now let's look at number of foot in one line because we see that syllables will combine to form foot foot will combine to form a line so let's take example of a very famous line from shakespearean solid shall i compare the two or summer's day and now let's see how many feet are there in this line shall i is one foot shall i two sounds combination of a weak syllable followed by a strong syllable shall i compare apne naap me ek foot hai compare kum is a weak syllable followed by a strong syllable so now if we summarize we'll find out that rhythm consists of meter and meter is dependent on two factors in a poem number of feet in one line and type of foot so type of foot in number of feet these two things will combine to determine the meter of that poem let's take example of some common poetry and see how the meter differs from each other the first kind of poem is iambic pentameter we've just seen the example shall i compare the two or summer's day iambic because it has a strong weak syllable followed by a strong syllable pentameter because it has the total five feet in one line now let's take another example iambic tetrometer from the poem by Emily Dickinson i heard of flybuzz when i died so i heard of flybuzz when i died in this poem we have iambic meter because it has a weak syllable followed by a strong syllable also it has four feet in one line so we it will have tetrometer and not pentameter the third kind of poetry is tokei tetrometer tokei as we know is a strong syllable followed by a weak syllable and tetrometer is having four feet in one line example is piping down the valley's vile piping songs is pleasant glee so if we look at these two lines we'll find that each line has a strong syllable followed by a weak syllable piping down now understand one more thing that strong and weak syllables identify karee words hote hain jo bole hi thode se tez jaate hain piping down is foots ko agar aap piping down goleinge it will not sound nice to the viewers okay piping down piping down the word is coming piping pezada focus hain down pe kam hain so it has a strong syllable followed by a weak syllable shall aayi shall aayi shall aayi shall aayi nahin bolde hain shall aayi piping down so strong syllable followed by a weak syllable so tokei tetrometer mein we see that we have a strong syllable followed by a weak syllable second criteria is tetrometer four feet in one line piping down the valley's vile piping songs pleasantly each line has four feet so this is how meter develops in any poem we also have so many things to discuss when it comes to rhyme because rhyme is not as simple as man and can it has so many other things exact rhyme feminine rhyme masculine rhyme approximate
