Question

Analyze the foot of the following phrase.

music theory

number of feet:

kind of feet:

Answer 1

trochaic... if that is what you are referring to

Answer 2

2 feet trochee.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Poetry Foundation: "A foot usually contains one stressed syllable and at least one unstressed syllable". So, since we have 5 syllables in "music theory", we cannot have more than 2 feet. Considering that the kind of feet depends on the first syllable being unstressed (trochee) or stressed (iamb), and the fact that the word "Music" starts with a stressed syllableit seems that we have a 2 feet trochee.
