Meter in poetry refers to the rhythmic structure of verses, determined by the arrangement of stressed and unstressed syllables. The most common types include iambic (unstressed-stressed), trochaic (stressed-unstressed), anapestic (unstressed-unstressed-stressed), and dactylic (stressed-unstressed-unstressed). Additionally, there are variations like spondees (stressed-stressed) and pyrrhic (unstressed-unstressed). Meter can also be categorized by the number of feet per line, such as monometer, dimeter, trimester, tetrameter, pentameter, and so on.

In the word "desperate," the stressed syllable is "des" and the unstressed syllables are "per" and "ate." Stressed syllables are pronounced with more emphasis and are typically longer and louder than unstressed syllables.
In English poetry and literature, stressed syllables are those that receive more emphasis in pronunciation, while unstressed syllables are pronounced with less emphasis. The pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables is crucial in creating rhythm and meter in poetry. Various poetic forms, such as iambic pentameter or trochaic tetrameter, rely on specific arrangements of stressed and unstressed syllables to establish a particular poetic structure.
Take and word are stressed, the rest unstressed.
A trochee is a word containing two syllables, the first stressed and the second unstressed (such as FORest). "Beautiful" has three syllables in the stressed-unstressed-unstressed pattern (BEAUtiful), which makes it a dactyl.
One stressed syllable followed by two unstressed is called a dactyl, and a line of verse written in that style is called dactyllic. Here are the other kinds of metrical feet as well: iamb: unstressed, stressed trochee: stressed, unstressed dactyl: stressed, unstressed, unstressed anapest: unstressed, unstressed, stressed amphibrach: unstressed, stressed, unstressed amphimacer: stressed, unstressed, stressed bacchius: unstressed, stressed, stressed antibacchius: stressed, unstressed, unstressed pyrrhus: unstressed, unstressed spondee: stressed, stressed tribrach: unstressed, unstressed, unstressed molossus: stressed, stressed, stressed
