Hi there! So, have you ever watched a play or a movie? Well, dramatis personae is like a list of all the different characters or people involved in the story. It's like when you make a list of all your friends in your class, but instead, it's for a story.
Now, each character in the story has a special role to play. Just like in your classroom, your friends all have different personalities and things they are good at. So, in the story, each character has their own personality and skills that help make the story interesting.
But, it's important to keep track of all the different characters in the story. That's why we have something called dramatis personae. It's a fancy way of saying "list of characters" in Latin. It helps people understand who all the characters are and how they are important to the story.
So, next time you watch a play or read a book, look for the dramatis personae at the beginning. It will help you keep track of all the cool and interesting characters in the story!
