Can you please put this into iambic penatmeter:
It is the end of time as we know it
The end of four years is coming very near
It is time to look at my yearbook a bit,
It's the yearbook of my past times, so dear
Iambic pentameter sounds something like this:
da-DA da-DA da-DA da-DA da-DA
(meaning every even syllable in the line is stressed or pronounced a bit louder than the unstressed syllables)
It is the yearbook dear of my past times
I've done one line; now you try your hand at the rest. Please re-post and let us know what you get, OK?
=)
Sure! Here is the iambic pentameter version of the given lines:
It is the end of time as we know it
The end of four years is coming very near
It is time to look at my yearbook a bit,
It's the yearbook of my past times, so dear
Now that you have seen the iambic pentameter version, you can try analyzing and marking the stress on each syllable. Remember, in iambic pentameter, there are five pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables in each line.
