acatalectic

adjective əˌkatəˈlɛktɪkāˌkadlˈektik
Prosody
  • (of a line of verse) having the full number of syllables.

    (韵文诗行)音节数完整的

    Example sentencesExamples

    • Unlike most English adjectives, ‘catalectic’ and its opposite ‘acatalectic’ usually follow the nouns they qualify: thus the last of Shelley's lines quoted above would be called a trochaic trimeter catalectic.
    • When unstressed syllables are not dropped at the beginning or the end of a line, they are said to be acatalectic.
    • A fierce opponent of literary plagiarism, Poe claims originality for his stanza form in ‘The Raven’: trochaic rhythm; octameter acatalectic alternating with heptameter catalectic repeated in refrain of fifth verse.
