I'm still confused about this question could someone please assist me thanks.
When Lady Capulet asks Juliet how she feels about her being married. What is Juliet's answer (line 72 in act 1 scene 3) and what does this reveal about her character.
I know the first part of the question but I don't know the second part which is what does this reveal about her character.
Isn't Juliet engaged to Romeo at this point? Is she being duplicitious by giving this answer? Or is she expressing the honor of being married?
What do you think?
No she's not being engaged to Romeo at this point she is about to meet her soon to be husband, Paris.
Is she in love with Romeo?
No, she hasn't met him yet.

Is the answer because she doesn't want to be like her mother and get married at a young age or no. I read the article but still I don't know the answer.
To find the answer to the second part of the question, you need to analyze Juliet's answer and consider how it reflects her character. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to approach this:
1. Start by looking at the specific line mentioned in the question: line 72 in act 1, scene 3.
2. Access the play, "Romeo and Juliet," either through a physical copy or an online resource. You can find various websites that provide the full text of the play for free, such as Project Gutenberg or Shakespeare Online.
3. Locate act 1, scene 3, either by navigating through the content or using the search function.
4. Find line 72 in that scene and read Juliet's response to Lady Capulet's question about her being married.
5. Once you have Juliet's answer, analyze it by considering the context of the scene and Juliet's previous actions and dialogues.
6. Look for clues that reveal Juliet's character. Pay attention to her tone, words, and emotions expressed in her response. Consider whether her answer aligns with her previous behavior or if it introduces new aspects of her character.
7. Note any key phrases or lines that offer insight into Juliet's thoughts, feelings, desires, or values.
8. Formulate your answer by summarizing how Juliet's response in line 72 reveals her character. Does it show her as obedient, rebellious, independent, dutiful, or something else? Explain why her answer provides evidence for your interpretation.
Remember, providing evidence from the text to support your interpretation of Juliet's character is essential.
