PROSE

“Prose is often classified as the “other” category of interpretation…So what is prose? Prose combines multiple elements of oral interpretation of literature. Prose corresponds to usual speech patterns—that you would find most every day in a particular space and time (in contrast to poetic form and language).

Prose may have humorous elements embedded, much like Humorous Interpretation. In short, while many categories have specific interpretation focal points” – NSDA
