group of lines in a poem
A group of lines in a poem or song that are put together as one part, usually with a space before and after it.
Vzorec užití:
the [first/last/next] stanza of [a poem/song]
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse “stanza” with “paragraph.” A stanza is for poems or songs, while a paragraph is for normal (prose) writing. Learners also sometimes call every part of a song a “chorus”; in fact, the main changing parts are stanzas (or verses), and the repeating part is the chorus.
Synonyma
verse (Often used in everyday speech for a section of a poem or song; sometimes less technical than “stanza” and also used for poetry in general.)
Antonyma
paragraph (A main unit in prose writing rather than in poetry; contrasts with how text is organized in stanzas.)

period of play in sports
In sports news or commentary, a way to talk about one part of a game, like a period or round.
Vzorec užití:
in the [first/second/final] stanza
Častá chyba:
Learners may think this sports use is the main meaning of “stanza,” but it is mostly used in sports writing, not in everyday speech. In normal conversation, people say “period,” “quarter,” “half,” or “round,” not “stanza.”
Synonyma
period (Standard sports term for one part of a game; “stanza” is more colorful or journalistic.)
Antonyma
whole game (Refers to the complete match rather than a single segment or period of play.)

Vzorec užití:

packet (General networking term for a unit of data; “stanza” is specific to certain protocols and has a defined XML-like structure.)
Antonyma
