The speaker of a monologue, while monopolizing the conversation, is speaking to others.

The origin of the word "monologue" is Greek "monologos" - speaking alone. The origin of soliloquy is Latin "soliloquium" - talking to oneself.

monologue?• A. A soliloquy is longer than a monologue.• B. A soliloquy is unheard by other characters,
