Cách sử dụng
The word 'scansion' is often used in the study of poetry. It refers to the process of analyzing a poem to determine its meter, or the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in each line. When you analyze scansion, you might mark stressed syllables with a '/,' and unstressed syllables with a 'u.' This can help you understand the rhythm of a poem and how it affects the meaning. For example, a poem with a regular meter might feel more formal or controlled, while a poem with an irregular meter might feel more free or expressive.
