because sum ediot tells her that news n she the great miss Juliet belives it and kills herself for mr.romeo...previous answer

There are two times in Romeo and Juliet where Juliet believes Romeo is Dead.

Firstly;

( act 3, scene 2) The Nurse walks in crying out;

'Romeo can,

Though heaven cannot: O Romeo, Romeo!

Who ever would have thought it? Romeo! '

then Juliet asks her what she is talking about and then she replys with

I saw the wound, I saw it with mine eyes,--

God save the mark!--here on his manly breast:

A piteous corse, a bloody piteous corse;

Pale, pale as ashes, all bedaub'd in blood,

All in gore-blood; I swounded at the sight.

Now Juliet believes she is talking about Romeo her new Husband until the Nurse states that her best friend was Tybalt and that Romeo had killed Tybalt (Juliet's cousin)

Secondly;

Is when she awakens from her sleep,( DURING THE END OF THE PLAY) as she had taken poison for her to sleep so she could fake her death, she awakens to see Romeo lying beside her dead so she grabs his Dagger and cries 'oh happy dagger' and stabs herself. Then the two star crossed lovers lay dead...

When the Nurse brought the news to Juliet, the Nurse did not say it straight and Juliet thought Romeo was dead, but when the Nurse said that Tybalt is the one who died; she was more confused and she thought that Tybalt and Romeo both died.

Note:

The Nurse spoke Prose


Define Prose: Written or spoken language in its ordinary form, without metrical structure


I hope that helps,

Romeo thinks that Juliet is dead because Balthazar told him so. Balthazar is his servant and has no reason to lie to him. This takes place in Act 5 Scene 1

Why did romeo and Juliet both kill themselves?

Because Romeo thought that Juliet was dead since she took a potion that made her look dead. Romeo therefore killed himself. When Juliet woke up and saw that Romeo was dead she also killed herself. Romeo killed himself with poison and Julet killed herself with a dagger.


How is pyramus and thisbe the same as Romeo and Juliet?

They are not the same, but they are similar. Indeed it is thought that the original Pyramus and Thisbe story is one of the sources of the Romeo and Juliet story. The key part that is similar is that one of a pair of lovers, mistakenly believing his love to be dead, commits suicide, whereupon the other lover, finding that her love is really dead, commits suicide also. In Pyramus and Thisbe, Pyramus believes Thisbe to be dead because he finds her garment stained with blood, whereas Romeo believes Juliet to be dead because he has been told by Balthazar that he saw her buried. Of course if that was all there was to it, Romeo and Juliet would be as short and as silly as Pyramus and Thisbe in Midsummer Night's Dream.
