Entertainment / Literature / Long Syllable: Any syllable with (1) a long vowel or (2) any syllable with a short vowel and two or more consonants following it. Such syllables typically take twice as long to sound as a short syllable--and thus become an important component of classical Latin poetry. In English poetry, meter relies on stress rather than long and short syllables.
