trochaeus trochaei N M :: trochee, a metrical foot
Wikipedia EN
In poetic metre, a trochee (/ˈtroʊkiː/), choree (/ˈkɔːriː/), or choreus, is a metrical foot consisting of a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one, in English, or a heavy syllable followed by a light one in Latin or Greek (also described as a long syllable followed by a short one). In this respect, a trochee is the reverse of an iamb.
The adjective form is trochaic. The English word trochee is itself trochaic since it is composed of the stressed syllable /ˈtroʊ/ followed by the unstressed syllable /kiː/.
Trochee comes from French trochée, adapted from Latin trochaeus, originally from the Greek τροχός (trokhós), "wheel", from the phrase trokhaios pous, literally "running foot"; it is connected with the word τρέχω trékhō, "I run". The less-often used word choree comes from χορός, khorós, "dance"; both convey the "rolling" rhythm of this metrical foot. The phrase was adapted into English in the late 16th century.
There was a well-established ancient tradition that trochaic rhythm is faster than iambic. When used in drama it is often associated with lively situations. One ancient commentator notes that it was named from the metaphor of people running (ἐκ μεταφορᾶς τῶν τρεχόντων) and the Roman metrician Marius Victorinus notes that it was named from its running and speed (dictus a cursu et celeritate).
