couplet
The first part of an Italian sonnet is called an octave, which consists of eight lines. The octave typically sets up the problem or situation that is further explored in the sestet.
The last two lines of a Shakespearean sonnet are called a couplet. They are the only adjacent lines which rhyme with each other, the others rhyming alternately. In a Petrarchan sonnet the last two lines form part of a six-line unit called a sestet
Sonnet 307 by Petrarch is part of his collection known as "Canzoniere" or "Song Book." This sonnet is written in Italian and is one of the many poems dedicated to his unrequited love for Laura. In this particular sonnet, Petrarch reflects on the pain and torment he experiences due to his unattainable love for Laura.
A sestet is the second part in an Italian sonnet that is six lines long. An example of a sestet in the sonnet "Soleasi Nel Mio Cor" by Petrarch starts with the line "They weep within my heart; and ears are deaf" and ends at the end of the poem.
A sonnet is a poem with distinct rhyming characteristics, initially a format for ballads (songs). Normal sonnets contain 14 lines. Some of the more famous sonnets were 154 poems by William Shakespeare, first published in 1609.
The resolution or explanation in an English sonnet typically appears in the final couplet, where the poet often offers a conclusion, a twist, or a resolution to the topic or argument presented in the previous twelve lines. This couplet often provides a new perspective or a resolution to the problem or dilemma posed in the earlier part of the sonnet.
A sonnet IS a poem. Not a part in one. If you had just used google you'd of known that immediately.

The main idea of a Shakespearean sonnet is typically restated in the couplet at the end of the sonnet. This final two-line stanza often provides a surprising or profound conclusion that captures the essence of the poem's theme.
Part in Italian is parte.
Occitan is a language (a form of Medieval French) and while it is possible that the sonnet was originally an Occitan invention, there is no special Occitan sonnetform. The first full development of the Sonnet was during the Italian Renaissance, and Petrarch was the most famous sonnetteer of this period. The Italian or Petrarchan sonnet has fourteen lines with a shift of point of view between lines 8 and 9 which is called the 'volta'. The sonnet thus has two clearly separated movements: the Octave and the Sestet. The usual rimepattern for a Petrarchan sonnet is ABBA ABBA CDE CDE. You can vary this a bit (especially the sequence in the sestet) but the change of viewpoint between octave and sestet is crucial. The later English or Shakespearian sonnet also has fourteen lines, but this time they are arranged into three four line Quatrains with a two line Couplet at the end. The Quatrains will usually develop an idea, which is then summed up by the Couplet at the end. So the Big Difference between Italian and English sonnets is that the Italian sonnet is a two-part poem (Octave + Sestet) while the English sonnet has four parts (Quatrain, Quatrain, Quatrain, Couplet).
