Final answer:

An 'Aside' is a secretive remark from a character to the audience, a 'Monologue' is a lengthy speech by a character that can be honest or deceptive, and a 'Soliloquy' is a sincere speech by a character who is alone onstage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching each term to its description:

  • Aside: When one character delivers a line that other characters do not hear. This character may address the audience directly, sharing thoughts or commentary without the other characters listening in.
  • Monologue: A longer speech where one character delivers their thoughts out loud. Other characters may be present, and the intentions of the speaker might be honest or deceptive.
  • Soliloquy: This occurs when a character is alone onstage and speaks their thoughts aloud. It's a window into the character's innermost feelings and is generally considered sincere as they grapple with their thoughts.
