What is nurse saying? "ah! mocker; that's the dog's name. r is for the—no; i know it begins with some other letter: and she had the prettiest sententious of it, of you and rosemary, that it would do you good to hear it. (ii, iv, 103-106)" a. juliet, like romeo, is witty and clever with words. b. juliet is too good for romeo, who she sees as a "dog." c. romeo is a lot like rosemary—pretty and sweet-smelling. d. nurse has exposed romeo's poor spelling ability.

I would say the correct answer is C. Romeo is a lot like rosemary—pretty and sweet-smelling. The Nurse is alluding to the fact that rosemary was considered a symbol of remembrance between two lovers. But she is teasing Romeo with this comparison, as she is afraid that he might trick Juliet into yielding to him, and then hurt her. This comparison with rosemary implies that young Romeo might be sweet in words, fresh and beautiful in looks - but not much more than that.
