Poetry & Literature / Literary device
English term or phrase: line break
Enjambment is the continuation of a sentence or clause across a line break. The opposite of an enjambed line of poetry is an end-stopped line: a sentence or clause whose end does fall at the end of a line of poetry.
Enjambment has the effect of encouraging the reader to continue reading from one line to the next, since most of the time a line of poetry that's enjambed won't make complete sense until the reader finishes the clause or sentence on the following line or lines. A poetic line break is the deliberately placed threshold where a line of poetry ends and the next one begins.
