Which statement about iambic meter is true? Each foot consists of two unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable. Each foot consists of one stressed syllable followed by one unstressed syllable. Each foot consists of three consecutive stressed syllables. Each foot consists of one unstressed followed by a stressed syllable.

Respuesta :

unstressed followed by stressed

Answer:

Each foot consists of one unstressed followed by a stressed syllable.

Explanation:

An iambic meter refers to lines of poetry containing iambs. An iamb is a metrical foot (a group of two or three syllables) that has one UNSTRESSED syllable followed by a STRESSED syllable. For example, the word remark is an example of an iamb because re is an unstressed syllable and mark is a stressed syllable, that is to say, it is pronounced louder, with more emphasis.

Other examples of iamb are belong, destroy, delay, portray, describe and attain.
