Answer:
The significance of the title "Was It A Dream" is that it shows the feelings of the narrator, for his lover, who is no more a reality now just like a dream because she is dead now.
Step-by-step explanation:
"Was It A Dream" is a short story by a French short story writer, Guy de Maupassant, who has written 300 short stories in his lifetime.
"Was It A Dream" is written in first person by an unnamed character who is the narrator of the story. The story begins with the narrator, affirming his love for his lover who lies in the grave now, "I had loved her madly!" Then he narrates his love story in which he does not tell us how they met but declares that' "I met her and loved her; that is all." Then the narrator's lover gets sick and dies of the cold. The narrator is lying near his lover's grave, whom he loved so dearly. He becomes unconscious and is found by people on the grave. The title "Was It A Dream" is a question not asked directly in the story but tells of the feeling of the narrator who has lost his love and now will see her no more. Just like a dream, which, when we wake up is a reality no more her lover is also.
