What does DIPODY mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A unit of verse made of two metrical feet taken together as a single measure.
In classical metre a dipody counts two feet as one beat of the line, so a line of six iambic feet may be read as three of these double units. The idea is mainly used when describing Greek and Latin verse, and it is the reason that a dimeter can mean a line of two such pairs. Most readers will only meet the word in handbooks of prosody.
How DIPODY is used
Technical term of prosody, used in discussions of classical and iambic verse.

- In the trochaic passage every dipody ends on a stressed syllable.
- The commentator treats the dipody as the real unit of the rhythm.
