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.
Μοτίβο χρήσης:
the [first/last/next] stanza of [a poem/song]
Συχνό λάθος:
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.
Συνώνυμα
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.)
Αντώνυμα
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.
Μοτίβο χρήσης:
in the [first/second/final] stanza
Συχνό λάθος:
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.”
Συνώνυμα
period (Standard sports term for one part of a game; “stanza” is more colorful or journalistic.)
Αντώνυμα
whole game (Refers to the complete match rather than a single segment or period of play.)

Μοτίβο χρήσης:
[software/system] sends an XMPP stanza to [server/client]
Συχνό λάθος:
Learners sometimes assume the technical sense is related to poetry. In computing, “stanza” here is just a name for a formatted block of data; it has no artistic meaning.
Συνώνυμα
packet (General networking term for a unit of data; “stanza” is specific to certain protocols and has a defined XML-like structure.)
Αντώνυμα
continuous stream (Data sent without clear separate units contrasts with the idea of discrete stanzas or packets.)
