So, I would rate my understanding of Oedipus the King as 5/10. I do not understand the play in one reading especially the old plays like these because I am not used to reading such difficult words and do not even know their meaning. I am used to reading modern plays as they have easy language usage, so it is easy to understand them. But I appreciate the Professor as during the reading of the play she explained each line and the plot and even asked questions so we all could understand that. I enjoyed reading the play but not that much because of the language usage of difficult words. If I want to play one role from this play then I will choose the character Oedipus King because of the different stories in the play, and his multifaceted nature, allowing me to delve into themes of fate, hubris, and self-discovery, making it a challenging and engaging role.

It seems like you’re giving yourself a fair rating on understanding “Oedipus the King.” Old plays like this can be tough because of the difficult language, especially if you’re used to modern plays. Your professor helping out with explanations is great. Choosing to play Oedipus King could be interesting due to his complexity and the themes he represents.
