English term or phrase: stanza
Definition from Infoplease:
Two or more lines of poetry that together form one of the divisions of a poem. The stanzas of a poem are usually of the same length and follow the same pattern of meter and rhyme.

Example sentence(s):
  • Stanzas provide structure and format within a poem. In many ways they are the equivalent of a paragraph in a prose work. The use of stanzas can make a poem more visually appealing, and give the poem a means of division. Even poems without rhyme or meter will gain structure from the use of stanzas. PoeWar
  • A sestina is usually an unrhymed poem consisting of six stanzas made up of six lines each. The sestina employs word repetition rather than rhyme. The last word of each line in the first stanza is repeated in a different order in the following five stanzas. Poets’ Graves
  • The type of stanza in a poem may be determined by counting the number of lines in the stanza. In English, for example, the most common type of stanza is the quatrain, or four line stanza. everything2

छंद, पद्यांश
Definition:
छंद का सबसे पहले उल्लेख ऋग्वेद में हुआ है।

वर्णों की संख्या, क्रम, मात्रा और गति-यति के नियमों से नियोजित पद्य रचना छन्द कहलाती है।

छंद को पद्य रचना का मापदंड कहा जा सकता है। बिना कठिन साधना के कविता में छंद योजना को साकार नहीं किया जा सकता।

छंद, पद्यांश


Definition from hi.wikipedia.org:
छंद का सबसे पहले उल्लेख ऋग्वेद में हुआ है।

वर्णों की संख्या, क्रम, मात्रा और गति-यति के नियमों से नियोजित पद्य रचना छन्द कहलाती है।

छंद को पद्य रचना का मापदंड कहा जा सकता है। बिना कठिन साधना के कविता में छंद योजना को साकार नहीं किया जा सकता।

Example sentence(s):
  • छंद की संरचना में लय का होना आवश्यक है कि क्योंकि छंद का प्राण लय और ध्वनि है। यह भी ज़रूरी है कि गीत का छंद हो या मुक्तछंद का छंद हो- दोनों के लिए लय का होना परमावश्यक है। मुक्त छंद का अर्थ यह नहीं है कि छंद लयहीन हो, मुक्त हो क्योंकि मुक्तछंद भी छंद है। - abhivyakti-hindi.org
