Choriamb

The Choriambus is composed of a trochee (-u ) (also called Choreus ) and an iambic ( u ) composite metrical foot.

The Choriambus can also be interpreted as katalektische dactylic dipody. The ancients turned his Choriambus mostly only in conjunction with other rhythms. The modern languages ​​give heaped Choriamben because of the combination of stressed syllables sounding verses a passionate character.

Example: " wonneberauscht "
