Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Oh, day and _____, but this is wonderous strange!"

Answer: night

Said by Horatio, the only character not to die.

2. "But break my ____ I must hold my tongue."

Answer: heart

Said by Hamlet. One of my favourite lines.

3. "Tender yourself more dearly lest you tender me a ____."

Answer: fool

Said by Polonius. A very clever pun. In Shakespeare's time, fool was slang or synonomus for child.

4. "I am ___!" (said by Polonius when he's stabbed)

Answer: slain

Ah, Polonius.... such an unintelligent man.

5. "Frailty thy name is ____."

Answer: woman

Said by Hamlet. This is my friend Andrei's favourite line.

6. "Sir, I ____ advancement."

Answer: lack

Said by Hamlet. The funniest line in the whole play.

7. "I will be ____. Your noble son is mad."

Answer: brief

Said by Polonius, but then he wasn't! He went on for like a page and a half about how he "proved" Hamlet was crazy.

8. "Get thee to a _____."

Answer: nunnery

Said by Hamlet to Ophelia. Nunnery was slang for a brothel.

9. "He is ____ and _____, lady." (one of Ophelia's crazy songs)

Answer: dead and gone

Crazy Ophelia is my favourite part of the whole play.

10. "Mad for thy ___?"

Answer: love

Said by Polonius. You really have to feel bad for Ophelia- her father was not a very nice person.
