that which we call a rose by any other NAME would smell as sweet. i did this as my monologue in drama II and what you have is incorrect...please, change it. Shakespeare is rolling in his grave.

actually i am not wrong, my book says it and the internet says it is right too, you indeed are the one who is wrong, therefore i have no reason to change it, i just have to add name as another option, dont have to call me out on being incorrect in such a bossy tone when you are not completely correct

I've got it as 'word' as well... But I'm sure Shakespeare will just be glad we're still having this discussion 400 years after his death!

jblanch, you are vindicated. It is "word" in both the second quarto of 1599 and the folio of 1623. It is "name" in the "bad" quarto of 1597, but then we wouldn't listen to someone who said "It's really 'to be or not to be ay that's the point' I just did a monologue on this" would we?

No need for anyone to get snippy. Sometimes entire scenes can be different between the folios and quatros of Shakespeare's plays. And oftentimes editors will mix and match bits of both when they publish new editions. There really is no way to tell which way Shakespeare intended it to be, but he'd probably laugh his head off at people arguing this heatedly about something so trivial.

Much better than her lesser known SNL monologue.

Going to go ahead and admit that my knowledge of this speech comes mainly from the episode of the Brady Bunch when Marcia practiced it over and over again.

Once upon a time I knew this. I played Juliet in this scene in my acting class in high school. It didn't stick, apparently.

I only missed 5 blanks. When I gave up (with 4 1/2 minutes left) I was so annoyed! Grr.
