She is saying "Romeo, Romeo, why are you Romeo?"

"Wherefore" means "why". She's asking why he is Romeo because she doesn't want to fall in a Montague; even though she already has.

No, your quotation is wrong. The correct quotation is "Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo?" The word "wherefore" does not mean "where", it means "why", so the quotation means "Romeo, Romeo! Why are you Romeo?" Juliet is asking why she had to fall in love with Romeo, the son of Montague, since she is supposed to hate all Montagues.

How do you spell where for art thou?

It is spelled "wherefore art thou".Wherefore does not mean where. It means for what reason, or why.So when Juliet says, "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" she means, "O Romeo, Romeo, why are you Romeo?" That is, why are you a guy called Romeo Montague instead of the same guy with a different name? That's why later on in the same speech she says, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."Please correct anyone you hear trying to say that "wherefore" means "where".


What do art thou mean in the bible?
