RHYME in English poetry and speech

What are the different types of rhyme? How important is rhyming in poetry? Why do we even rhyme at all? If you’ve watched any of my videos on poetry, you’ll already have seen how important rhyming can be in English. In this lesson I’ll explain what the requirements are to create a rhyme, and the different types of rhyme, from full rhyme, to half rhyme, to eye rhyme. Rhyming is easy when you know how, and it can happen in everyday conversation too, often by accident, which makes people laugh. This video will also help you with pronunciation, because rhyme is all about what the words sound like! Test your rhyme skills with the quiz: www.engvid.com/rhyme-in-engli...

    I have already seen all your previous lessons about poetries, poems, sonnets and rhymes but, surely, I will watch them all again (repetita iuvant the Latins would say). I remember some classes on Shakespeare another about Haiku and another one on a poem by Emily Dickinson. In my small way I read Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters that I advice everyone in particular way The Hill, Fiddler Jones, Doctor Meyers. Thanks a lot Ms Gill.

    Dearest teacher. I'm travelling soon to England and would love to be able to meet you, to have the honor of meeting you. Do you give lessons somewhere other than on line? I'm from Argentina and I give English lessons on a very poor neighborhood in the north of the country in Santiago del Estero. Thank you and sorry to intrude. ❤

    "Namaste" mam i am from India and i am trying to learn to speak english. Today i got your videos on youtube and i found it very useful. There are many videos but when it comes to pronunciation it is very difficult to understand the word for them whos english is not first language. But your voice and pronunciation is very clear. I understand more than 90%. Thank you.

    Hi! Gill. I'm an amateur at writing poems :). But, I love your classes and also poetry. I felt prompted to share one poem that I wrote a long time ago. I hope you like my text. :D How can a few seconds turn life upside down? An unforeseen event that blossomed deep sentiments Contradicting the destiny, you dared to cross the bound Overcoming convictions and impediments. Love, soul of my soul , where have you been these long years? I wandered through the dark streets searching for the light. I tried to find a sense of life in laughter and tears Then I heard your steady voice and life has become bright Because you are the missing fragment in my heart You are the main reason for what I`ve been living for. And since the very beginning, we`ve never been apart . Neither time nor death separates us anymore. Your absence is painful, and my soul is invaded by sorrow But , daily my hopes are revived since you are my morrow. BF

    Dear Ma'am Gill, This lesson on ' Rhymes' is very helpful as we start our life as a kid with the Nursery rhymes.Reading or writing poems elevates our imagination and makes life seem beautiful than it really is ! We certainly like rhyming poems as we get a rhythm while reading poetry ! I have also composed a few poems on my own.Every little child imitates his or her parents.My son as a kid once was hiding from me and writing something so insisted him to show me what was he writing ? He showed me and told very innocently " Mom, i am trying to write a poem like you " and he had written only one line " Life is like a feather " ! Thanks,Ma'am !
