This is an excellent lesson and it would indeed be true for me to give some praise for the learning here. Upon the words I hear there is a sense of frisson a mind's eye burst of hue outside of background greys. The poem, from my point of view is drawing one's emotions near to think of another's works & days to read within a deeper mission And so, I find, that to appraise a rhyme-scheme, with your permission is a noble art and truly dear to the literature we expect of you.
This is great information on rhyme. I've watched a couple of your videos and they're great reviews of the stuff I learned in school a long time ago. Hopefully your videos will help me write more poems.
I always thought a feminine rhyme was simply a two-syllable rhyme: hunger/younger, double/trouble, grumble/stumble. So would a rhyme like (I'm reaching here) deterred and bestirred where the emphasis is on the second syllable (?), not be a feminine rhyme? BTW, I really enjoy your videos -- interesting & educational!
+tortoise dreams Good question! Often those two syllable words are trochaic (stressed unstressed), and therefore feminine, but not always. If it ends on a stressed syllable, then, yes, it's masculine. On the other hand, measuring stresses is fairly nuanced, and no two syllables are equally stressed (or unstressed). So, for instance, your hunger/younger pair seems a feminine rhyme, but consider the difference between your "bestirred" and its present tense, "bestir." They're both masculine, but the present almost seems slightly more so. Robert Pinsky's book The Sounds of Poetry has an excellent exploration of this concept. I highly recommend it.
Did you know you can adjust the speed of a RUclips video? Under settings, you can slow it down as much as .25x or speed it up to double! Hope that helps!
It depends on your purpose. They definitely aren’t strong rhymes, but “rules” can be played with or broken. If you want them to be more impressive, you might try rhyming more syllables. On the other hand, if you’re using them as song lyrics, rhyming can be less sharp as the music blends it all.
Thanks dude. You put a lot of passion in your videos, I wish you had more subs.
Thank you! I’m glad they’re useful!

Looking forward to more vidoes. They remind me of your class lol
Thank you for the information
Consider adding visuals, such as lines from the poem you read, to help visual learners--our largest segment of students.
That’s a good idea! I’m often strapped for time on editing, but I’ll try to work more of that in.

I'll look for it -- thanks!
i wish you were my teacherrrr
This is a great example of infotainment but it's very difficult to keep up with the pace of your speech. Can you please try slowing down?

The last words in each of my line only all rhyme with y like this
Enemy
Country
Society
Luxury
Is this acceptable?? Can anyone tell me😭
