Exempel på hur man kan använda CHORIAMBIC i en mening

• The middle foot "– u u –" is a choriambus, as a so-called choriambic nucleus is a defining element of Aeolic verse.
• The lengthening of a penultimate short syllable when a line is made catalectic is found in Persian too; for example, if a metre in choriambic (– u u –) rhythm is shortened, the resulting ending is a cretic (– u –).
• Information about the contents of the later books is less certain: the fourth book appears to have contained many poems in acephalous hipponacteans with double choriambic expansion, and possibly in other metres; the fifth book was metrically heterogeneous, with ancient sources mentioning the use of Phaelecian hendecasyllables and lesser asclepiads; of the sixth, nothing is known; a single couplet from the seventh book is preserved in Hephaestion but it is unclear whether this was an entire stanza or part of a three- or four-line stanza.
