Hey, How many stressed syllables are in each line?

"The sea was as wet as wet could be"
"The sands were as dry as dry"

1 answer

"stressed syllables" just means that they are pronounced a bit more loudly (I'm putting them in CAPS) than the others. You need to read it all aloud in order to tell. I'll do one line, then you do the other.

The SEA was as WET as WET could BE
