English prose
Britain's unmetered writing
English prose is writing in the English language that follows natural speech patterns rather than metrical or verse structure.
It encompasses fiction, essays, journalism, and most everyday writing.
The term often implies a standard of clarity and style: Her English prose is elegant but accessible.
Discussing someone's English prose usually evaluates their command of written expression.
