Item 1. This is a statement and, in a broad sense, a topic, but you don't imply any question about this statement that would allow you to probe it very well. If you simply want some general information about the Greek theatrical tradition, then you have a broad topic, but I'd like you to think of a narrower topic that will let you explore an aspect of the Greek theater rather than this wide open statement.

Item 2: It's good that you're thinking of using truncation with "theat*"

Item 3: In looking at your results examples, I see that they are on a couple of very different sub-topics. See if you can pick one to work on for your Lesson 6 assignment and the review exercise you will work on for November 14.
