What is revealed in Claudius soliloquy?

In most of Claudius' asides he shows the audience that he is not a completely inhumane character. In act three he describes his guilt as a "heavy burden" showing that he is remorseful for his actions. In his aside in act five he tries to stop Gertrude from drinking the poison, then when she does he describes how it is "too late" showing that he may have had non-sefish feelings for Gertrude.


What do laertes and claudius do to manipulate the outcome of the duel?

In a sense, they do not care about the outcome of the duel. The duel is a smokescreen to give Laertes an opportunity to be within arm's length of Hamlet with a pointy poisoned sword, and with some kind of excuse when Hamlet is killed as a result. Hamlet was, in fact, winning the duel and would have won the bet for Claudius, but that doesn't matter.


Why does Hamlet not kill Claudius when he has the perfect time and opportunity?

Laertes states that he would be willing to cut Hamlet's throat in a church, a divine area. This contrasts with Hamlet's earlier actions in that he wants to avoid murdering Claudius in a holy setting, ensuring that Claudius will not have the opportunity to enter into heaven.


Why is Hamlet the only one suspicious about his father's death?

Hamlet is disposed to believe ill of Claudius. He dislikes him and resents his marriage to his mother. That is why when the Ghost names Claudius as his murderer, Hamlet says "O my prophetic soul!"--he had already suspected as much. Because we hear Claudius admit his guilt (just before the "To Be or Not to Be" speech and in Claudius's "O my offence is rank" soliloquy) we know that the ghost is telling the truth. Otherwise, it might be plausible to believe that Claudius is innocent, as everyone including Gertrude seems to believe.


Who does Hamlet suspect is a murderer?

The uncle poured poison down his father's ear. Hamlet suspects that Claudius, his uncle, is a murderer in that he suspects that Claudius killed Hamlet's father, Claudius's brother, in order to become King. When the Ghost reveals to Hamlet that he was killed by Claudius, Hamlet's immediate reaction is, "O my prophetic soul! My uncle?"--which is a pretty clear indication that Hamlet had some serious suspicions beforehand.

Is the sentence I give you a call correct?

No, that is not correct. If you are telling someone that you will phone them at some future time, the sentence would be, I will give you a call. You might also be talking about a something possible rather than actual; for example, if I give you a call, would you be willing to talk to me? But you would not just say, I give you a call.
