Flashcard 13 - High School English I: Reading Flashcard Set for the STAAR test

monologue; soliloquy

Consider using this tip to help you remember the difference between these two terms: a monologue is a speech by one character and as a prefix, mono- means “one” or “single.” So only one character is talking and the rest have to listen to him. A soliloquy is given by a character who is solo or alone on the stage.
