1. DUM da = trochaic

Trochee is a metrical foot which consists of two syllables. The first syllable will be emphasized, or stressed (as is the case in the example above - DUM is the first syllable and it is stressed), and the syllable which follows it will be unstressed (as you can see, da is unstressed). Stressed syllables are written in capital letters, and unstressed in lower.

2. da da DUM = anapestic

Anapaest is a metrical foot which consists of three syllables. The first two syllables are unstressed (as you can see in the example above, da da are both unstressed), and they are followed by a stressed syllable (DUM is stressed in the example above).

3. da DUM = iamb

Iamb is a metrical foot which consists of two syllables, like trochee. However, unlike trochee, in iamb, the first syllable is unstressed (da in the example above), and the syllable that follows it is stressed (DUM is emphasized). Shakespeare used iamb in his poems - iambic pentameter.

4. DUM da da = dactylic

Dactyl is a metrical foot which consists of three syllables, like anapest. However, unlike anapest, in dactyl, the first syllable is stressed (DUM in the example above), whereas the following two syllables are unstressed (as you can see, da da are written in lower letters, which means they are unstressed).

can you finish the question hun

in this passage from chapter 6 of "animal farm", by george orwell, what the author is ridiculing in this passage is the frivolity of some rules.

clover, the mare, believes she remembers that the fourth commandment forbade sleeping in beds because it was something that humans did. snowball, napoleon, and the pigs are brain-workers who look after the welfare of the farm. they are the obvious leaders because they are smart, and so they are entitled to eat the best food and sleep in beds. it is squealer, who says these lines making the difference between sleeping with sheets, what humans do, and sleeping in beds, what pigs do. the unwillingness to question authority makes the oppressed to obey without thinking.
