Iambic pentameter is a verse form, a rhythm of ten syllables where weak stresses alternate with strong ones, creating a sound like ta-DUM-ta-Dum-ta-DUM-ta-DUM-ta-DUM.
Typical lines showing this rhythm are:
"In sooth I know not why I am so sad." (Merchant of Venice)
"Deny thy father and refuse thy name" (Romeo and Juliet)
"O Hamlet thou hast cleft my heart in twain" (Hamlet)
"Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more!" (Henry V)
"I am a very foolish fond old man" (King Lear)
