Prose
For the Wikipedia guideline regarding editing articles, see
Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Prose is writing distinguished from
poetry by its greater variety of
rhythm and its closer resemblance to the patterns of everyday
speech. The word prose comes from the
Latin prosa, meaning straightforward, hence the term "prosaic," which is often seen as pejorative. Prose describes the type of writing that prose embodies, unadorned with obvious stylistic devices. Prose writing is usually adopted for the description of facts or the discussion of whatever one's thoughts are, incorporated in free flowing speech. Thus, it may be used for newspapers, capers, magazines, encyclopedias, broadcast media, films, letters, debtor's notes, famous quotes, murder mystery, history, philosophy, biography, linguistic geography and many other forms of media.
