Hi FallDownGuys,
Your Question:
Read the excerpt from Act III, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet. Friar Laurence: Romeo, come forth; come forth, thou fearful man: Affliction is enamour’d of thy parts, And thou art wedded to calamity. What is the meaning of the phrase "thou art wedded to calamity”? You have not had enough disaster in your life. You often have disaster around you. Your marriage will be a complete disaster. Your confusion is the cause of many disasters
Answer:
Your marriage will be a complete disaster.
The reason its the answer i choose because it states in the sentence "thouh art wedded" which means they got married and the fact that it says calamity at the end states the marriage wont last due to the disasters that will happen between them.
Calamity - "an event causing great and often sudden damage or distress; a disaster."
Wedded - getting married
