What is a soap opera?By Trevor Lang

A soap opera is a daytime radio or television drama serial about the daily lives and problems of the same group of people. Soap operas are characterised by romance, sentimentality and melodrama. The term 'soap opera' was coined by the American press in the 1930s because these serials were sponsored by soap manufacturers. The serials were mainly watched by women, most of whom at that time didn't work, they were housewives. They were also major consumers of soap.

Мыльная опера — это дневной радио- или телесериал о повседневной жизни и проблемах группы людей. Он характеризуется романтикой, сентиментальностью и мелодрамой. Термин «мыльная опера» был придуман в 1930-х годах, потому что эти сериалы спонсировались производителями мыла, а их основной аудиторией были домохозяйки, которые также являлись основными потребителями мыла.
