[@samuellasyoutube]

Im so convinced that his beloved was Black

[@h0ll0wknight16]

I'm not saying you're wrong perse, but from what in the poem do you gather this ? Like I'm genuinely curious as to what led you to that conclusion.

[@samuellasyoutube]

@h0ll0wknight16 "breast are dun" speaking about her skin, dun as in brown or dal Grey. He mentions that her hair was like black wires which could've meant it was hard and spikey. And also she wasn't the standard of beauty which was the reality of being a black woman back then etc
I don't know but it just seems that way to me😭

[@h0ll0wknight16]

@@samuellasyoutube never caught those before. We have no way of knowing who Oll'William was talking about but I guess your interpretation is just as good as any other

[@guxixi17]

Ma'am. May I please ask if you have a video on iambic pentameter , coz I've been searching yohh. ( Needed before Wednesday😭😭)

[@davidmarcel222]

what’s that

[@guxixi17]

@davidmarcel222 if you watched sonnet 130 she says she's gonna explain iambic pentameter @ the end.

[@Pikkkewyn]

@@guxixi17 iambic pentameter is just a way of saying 10 syllables per line

[@englishislove]

An iamb is a pair of syllables. Pentameter means there are five pairs of these syllables in a line of poetry (hence, 10 syllables per line)
Each iamb (pair of syllables) contains one unstressed and one stressed syllable.
For example, line 3 of ‘Sonnet 130’:
If SNOW be WHITE, why THEN her BREASTS are DUN.

[@englishislove]

@Pikkkewyn Yes, this is true, but there is more to it than just ten syllables per line.

[@ameliaChii]

For those doing supplementary exams now in May... Do we also do these new poems or we are doing the old ones?? Please help... I'm writing paper 2 at the 30th of May, I'm confused as to which poems we are doing.

[@englishislove]

You will be writing on the old poems 🙂 These new poems will only be examined for the first time in November.
