When it comes to Shakespeare's characters in his story, it is evident that his characters speak in different language techniques.

It is common for high-class characters to speak in verse style and for low-class characters to speak in prose style. This allows the audience to distinguish the social classes.

"Blank verse" is a kind of poetry that has unrhymed lines. This is the language style of Juliet and it tells much about her social status, being a daughter of a noble family.
