2. When is the play predominantly set in?

From Quiz Romeo and Juliet

Answer: Renaissance

"Romeo and Juliet" is set during the Renaissance. In that time period, there were two families that would constantly bicker. In the town of Verona, there are two controlling families named the Capulets and the Montagues. These two families have a long standing conflict with each other and constantly get into fights over unimportant things. Throughout the play, the two families' dislike for each other increases, until a tragedy happens.

Answer: Thine

This is the final part of the fight scene in Act 3 Scene 1. Romeo has just heard that Mercutio died and now he's going to kill Tybalt. This is a very powerful scene, or I think so at least... ----- "Now, Tybalt, take the 'villain' back again That late thou gavest me; for Mercutio's soul Is but a little way above our heads, Staying for thine to keep him company. Either thou or I, or both, must go with him."

6. Fill in the missing words from 'Romeo and Juliet'. "Two households, both alike in _________, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene".

From Quiz What's Missing From 'Romeo and Juliet'? - Part 1

Of course it's dignity! I knew you knew that! This is the very first line in the play spoken by our Chorus! ----- "Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."

They were from Capulet, and they were walking down the street biting their thumbs and insulting Montagues.

From Quiz Romeo and Juliet

A way of remembering Romeo's last name is Montague is by remembering that Romeo has an M and so does Montague.

10. In the streets of ______________, another brawl breaks about between the Capulets and Montagues.

From Quiz "Romeo and Juliet" Storyline

Answer: Verona

"From ancient grudge break to new mutiny" - from the Prologue. Capulets and Montagues had such hate for one another that a fight would break out nearly every time they saw each other.

16. Fill in the missing words from 'Romeo and Juliet'. "_______ is enanmour'd of thy parts, and thou art wedded to calamity"

From Quiz What's Missing From 'Romeo & Juliet'? Part 2.

Answer: Affliction

It's 'Affliction'! This is the first part of Act 3 Scene 3 (my second favourite scene), and Romeo has gone to Friar Laurence to find out his fate for killing Tybalt. ----- "Romeo, come forth; come forth, thou fearful man. Affliction is enanmour'd of thy parts, And thou art wedded to calamity."

17. Fill in the missing words from 'Romeo and Juliet'. "Do you bite your _______ at us, sir?"

From Quiz What's Missing From 'Romeo and Juliet'? - Part 1

Answer: Thumb

Apparently it's a rude gesture to bite one's thumb at someone else! This line is from Act 1 Scene 1, spoken by Abraham to Sampson. This began the quarrel that caused the Prince to threaten death to anyone caught fighting, but you knew that didn't you! ----- "Abraham. Do you bite your thumb at us, sir? Sampson. I do bite my thumb, sir. Abraham. Do you bite your thumb at us, sir? Sampson (to Gregory). Is the law of our side if I say ay? Gregory. No."

Act II Scene 2. Juliet appears at a window, and unaware that Romeo is below sighs: "O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father, and refuse thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I'll no longer be a Capulet".

From Quiz Romeo and Juliet

Answer: Rosaline

In the beginning, Romeo has not yet met Juliet. He is in a relationship with Rosaline, but Rosaline doesn't love him. Once he goes to the party at the Capulet's house, he then meets Juliet. The answer cannot be Juliet's sister because Juliet is an only child.

21. In Act One, Scene One, who confronts the two parties and tries to stop the fight?

From Quiz Romeo and Juliet

Answer: Benvolio

Benvolio, a lover of peace, tries to head off the fight, but Tybalt comes and sparks the brawl.

22. What is Juliet's last name?

From Quiz Romeo and Juliet

Answer: Capulet

A way of remembering Juliet's last name is that her first and last name rhyme.

From Quiz The Tragedy of ''Romeo and Juliet''
