Use the limerick to answer the question.

There once was a fair man from Beirut,
who dreamed he was hearing a moo.
He awoke in the morning
when his alarm gave warning,
and found out that he had cow flu.

The two correct answers that would best help identify a limerick are:

1. What is the rhyme scheme?
2. What is the meter?

These two questions focus on the essential characteristics that define the structure of a limerick. Limericks typically have a specific AABBA rhyme scheme and a distinct meter, often consisting of three long lines followed by two shorter ones.

Yes, I’m sure. To identify a limerick, understanding its rhyme scheme (AABBA) and its meter (usually anapestic or amphibrachic) is essential. These aspects are key structural features that differentiate limericks from other types of poetry.

The other options, such as the number of stanzas or details about refrains, are less relevant for identifying the specific structure of a limerick. Each limerick typically consists of one stanza, and they do not use refrains in the way that other forms might.

So, the best questions to identify a limerick are indeed:

1. What is the rhyme scheme?
2. What is the meter?
