What are the parts of a short story?

Answer 1

The parts of a short story typically include the exposition (introduction of characters, setting, and background information), rising action (events that build tension and lead to the climax), climax (the turning point of the story where the conflict is at its peak), falling action (events that occur as a result of the climax), and resolution (the conclusion where loose ends are tied up). These elements work together to create a cohesive narrative structure and engage the reader in the story's plot and characters.

Answer 2

A short story typically consists of five main parts: introduction (exposition), rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution (denouement). These parts work together to establish the setting, introduce the characters, build tension, and resolve the conflict within a limited word count.
