What are iambic and trochee? How can you tell them apart?

Yamb and trochee are two-meter sizes of syllabo-tonic versification. The size is determined depending on which syllable in this two-stop stop is stressed. If the stress in two-note size falls on the first syllable, then this is a troche. If in a two-foot stop the stress falls on 2 syllables, then this is iambic.

For example, Pushkin’s poem “Demons” was written by a chorea, and the novel “Eugene Onegin”, “southern” poems – by iambic.

In two-foot sizes, pyrrhicias are often found, when there is no stress at all in a two-syllable foot.
