Mammoth Memory

Prose – Written and spoken language in its ordinary form rather than poetry

PRONUNCIATION

(Pronounced proze)

To remember the definition of the word prose, use the following mnemonic:

The probes rose (prose) from his head and connected to a teleprompter. It revealed the boring, ordinary words and thoughts of the patient.

Written and spoken language in its ordinary form rather than poetry

 

Examples of prose in a sentence

Usually, I prefer poetry, but this prose was beautifully written.

After reading his most recent novel, I was so inspired that I began to write prose myself.

Two forms of prose are the short story and the novel.
