Why did Romeo and Benvolio decide to go to the Capulets' ball?
Benvolio was planning to go to check out the girls. He talks Romeo into coming because Rosaline, the girl who refuses to listen to Romeo's protestations of love, will be there, partying it up. Romeo's intention is to hang around Rosaline, but Benvolio is hoping that some other girl who is at the party will make Romeo forget about her. This is a plan which is more successful that Benvolio can imagine.

What does Benvolio mean when he says that Romeo will think that his Swan is a crow?
What Benvolio means by Romeo's swan is Rosaline. Right now, Romeo thinks that Rosaline is incredibly beautiful, in the same way that people find swans to be incredibly beautiful, as they sail majestically around on rivers and lakes. But, Benvolio predicts, when they get to the party, Romeo will see girls who are much more beautiful than Rosaline and who will make him think she is ugly. Instead of a beautiful swan, she will seem like an ugly crow who hangs around highways eating roadkill.
What does Benvolio suggest Romeo do about Rosaline?
He suggests a lot of things. When Romeo is depressed he advises him to "give liberty to thy thine eyes. Examine other beauties" Translation: Look at other beautiful girls When Mercutio and Tybalt are about to get into the fight he suggests that they go home.
Who says You will make thee think thy swan a crow?
This line is from William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." It is spoken by Benvolio in Act 1, Scene 2, where he is trying to comfort Romeo by suggesting that he will soon see other beautiful women who will make him forget about his current love, Rosaline.
Why is Benvolio more important than Mercutio?
Benvolio isn't more important than Mercutio. Benvolio is a good friend to Romeo (Benvolio sort of means 'well-meaning' in street-Italian), but he doesn't make much difference to the plot. Mercutio picks the fight with Tybalt that turns this from a lovestory into a tragedy. Benvolio tries to joke Romeo out of his pash on Rosaline, tries to persuade Mercutio not to fight Tybalt, tries to get the Duke not to banish Romeo - but nobody ever listens to Mercutio. A nice fellow - but not a lot of use to anybody.
What evidence do we have that Romeo went to Capulet's party to see Rosaline?
In the beginning of Romeo and Juliet, it states that he is in love with Rosaline. A little later, the Capulets are having a feast. Romeo thinks it would be a good idea to go, just to see his dear Rosaline. And because he was a Montague, he and his friends wore masks to conceal their identity. At the party, Romeo caught a glimpse of Juliet, where he automatically fell in love with her, therefore forgetting Rosaline. But his original reasoning for attending the ball was to see Rosaline, who he thought was his true love. We know this because a servant of Capulet's asks Romeo to read the guestlist to him. since the servant is illiterate. This Romeo does and reads that one of the guests will be Rosaline. Benvolio then says, " At this same ancient feast of Capulet's sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so loves with all the admired beauties of Verona. Go thither and with unattainted eye, compare her face to some that I can show, and I will make thy swan look like a crow." Romeo replies, "I'll go along, no such sight to be shown, but to rejoice in splendor of my own." In other words, Benvolio wants Romeo to look at other girls, who will take his mind off of the unattainable Rosaline, but Romeo says he will go, not to look at the other girls, but to enjoy the sight of Rosaline.
Tybalt is the first to discover the reason for romeo melancholy?
No, Benvolio discovers why Romeo is such a sourpuss - but then it is hardly a secret. Romeo has the hots for Rosaline, but she is having none of him. Benvolio works out that Romeo is in love near the end of Act 1 Scene 1. He knows who it is by the end of Act 1 Scene 2: At this same ancient feast of Capulet's Sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so lovest, With all the admired beauties of Verona: Go thither; and, with unattainted eye, Compare her face with some that I shall show, And I will make thee think thy swan a crow. Romeo goes to Capulet's Ball because he wants to see Rosaline there. He doesn't know that tonight he will meet Juliet for the first time.
How appropriate are Tybalt's and benvolio's names in romeo and Juliet?
Benvolio is Italian for "good will" and Benvolio is a man of good will, always trying to make peace.
Rome and his inflation with rosaline in romeo and Juliet?
Romeo's infatuation with Rosaline causes him to crash the Capulet's feast where he first encounters Juliet. That's the best answer I can make from the vague question.
