A choliamb is a rare and ancient Greek poetic form, also known as a "limping dactyl". It consists of four lines, with a specific pattern of long and short syllables. The first, second, and fourth lines have seven syllables each, with a distinct pattern of long and short syllables, while the third line has five syllables. The choliamb was often used by ancient Greek poets to express witty or humorous observations, and was considered a more casual and colloquial form of poetry compared to other forms like the hexameter or elegiac couplet.
