Odysseus tells Polyphemus that his name is "Nobody." When Polyphemus asks for help during an attack, Odysseus and his men blind him using a wooden stake. When Polyphemus calls out for help, he tells the other Cyclopes that "Nobody" is attacking him, so they do not come to his aid.
Initially, Odysseus is cunning in being able to trick the Cyclops into believing his name was "Nobody" because the Cyclops would then be prevented from calling for help continually saying "Nobody is here!" However, Odysseus demonstrates excessive pride in having tricked the Cyclops and foolishly reveals that he is not "Nobody" but in fact the great "Odysseus." Enraged, the Cyclops calls upon his father Poseidon to punish Odysseus, and thus Odysseus's long journey home.
a better way of saying choose is "I chose this dress".......or maybe "I selected this dress"
Saying no would imply that the answer is yes, and so that would imply the answer is no. And that would go on forever.It is like saying "this sentence is false."by stating the sentence you are saying it is true.
A moral is defined as a wise saying that describes the lesson taught at the end of a fable.

I wouldn't call it a battle, per se, but Polyphemus was the Cyclops that imprisoned Odysseus and his men. Odysseus put out his eye and tricked the giant into saying that No Man hurt him when calling for aid.
saying his name was "no man."
when he's like "Nobody hurt me." they think that he means like nobody hurt him and so there all like he's weird.
Gets him drunkOdysseus gets Polyphemus drunk on wine, so much so that Polyphemus falls into a deep sleep.Pokes out his eyeWhen Polyphemus has fallen asleep, Odysseus and his men grab a large burning log, and wrap leather around the end. They thrust the burning log into the Cyclops Polyphemus' eye, at the same time pulling the leather around the log so that the flaming log burrows like a screw into his eye. This blinds Polyphemus and causes him to bleed profusely.Makes him look like a foolOdysseus earlier tricks Polyphemus by saying his name is No Man, or Nobody. After having his eye gouged, Polyphemus cries out for help saying "Nobody is hurting me!", making the other Cyclops laugh at Polyphemus' ridiculousness.Taunts himAs Odysseus and his crew are escaping, Odysseus taunts Polyphemus, revealing his true name.
In the end, after Odysseus and his men escape, the cyclops eats nobody since they have all escaped.
He drunk him and tricked him by saying his name was Nobdy. Odysseus poke his eye out and when people came in he was yelling " Nobdy did this to me". Odysseus and his sailors hid underneath the sheeps
1. When the Cyclops Polyphemus asks Odysseus where his ship is, Odysseus lies and says it was destroyed upon the rocks of the shore. 2. Odysseus told the cyclops that his name was "Nobody". When Odysseus and his men blind the cyclops (neither Odysseus nor the Cyclops dies), he yells to his friends for help. They ask him what is wrong and he answers saying, "Nobody's killing me now by fraud and not by force!" (Fagles' translation 9.455). They respond by saying that it must be the plague killing him and they can't help. They advise him to pray.
polyphemus isn't right he is son of poseidon and thinks poseidon loves him for being cruel, Odysseus was able to trick him many times by saying hisname was nobody, getting him drunk. and stabbing him in the eye when he was asleep.

An example of rhyme in The Odyssey is in Book 9, where Odysseus and his men encounter the cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus tells the cyclops his name is "Nobody" to deceive him. When Odysseus and his men blind Polyphemus and he calls for help, the other cyclopes hear him saying that "Nobody has blinded me." This creates a rhyme within the dialogue.
