What is "Prose" ?

<p>I see this word often in the SAT/ACT review books. What exactly does it mean? I dont really understand the google definition. Also some examples would be helpful. thanks.</p>

<p>Not poetry.</p>

<p>thats it? its as simple as that?</p>

<p>That’s it</p>

<p>See “The Would Be Gentleman” by Moliere: <a href=“http://moliere-in-english.com/bourgeois.html”>http://moliere-in-english.com/bourgeois.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>It’s hilarious! (this isn’t random; it is pertinent to what you were asking about haha)</p>

<pre><code>"To make the point most terse.
</code></pre>

<p>What isn’t verse is prose, and what’s not prose is verse."</p>

<p>Yup; this is really a case of don’t overthink the answer.</p>

<p>Prose also excludes song lyrics and opera libretti.</p>

<p>Prose is a form of language that exhibits a grammatical structure and a natural flow of speech rather than a rhythmic structure (as in traditional poetry). Hope this helps.
If you any help regarding the test prep, take advise from the best, the Chopras, </p>
