Question

'which of the following lines is decasyllabic?...A i am sometimes compared to popular actresses...B meet me by the dock down south....C i sincerely hope you have a bigger fish than that....D to whom it may concern: Hello and bye'

Answer 1

Hi Luis,

 

The definition of decasyllabic is a metrical line of 10 syllables with the prefix deca meaning 10.  So just count the number of syllables in each response and you will find that one of them is exactly 10 syllables long.

Hope this helps,
