English term or phrase: aside
Definition from Bedford/St. Martin's:
In drama, a speech directed to the audience that supposedly is not audible to the other characters onstage at the time. When Hamlet first appears onstage, for example, his aside "A little more than kin, and less than kind!" gives the audience a strong sense of his alienation from King Claudius.

Example sentence(s):
  • In order to highlight Palaestrio’s craftiness, Plautus has Periplectomenus in a long aside describe the slave's planning while the actor playing the slave mimes intense deliberation Brooklyn College
  • What does not occur very often in Faust, though, are true asides, and most particularly those comical remarks which would normally produce a laugh in the audience. Nancy Thuleen
  • Rene would regularly explain his ongoing predicament at the start, and make asides at the Audience regarding other people's leading statements. tvtropes.org

Definition from Glossary of literary terms:
Dramaturgijoje žiūrovams skirtas tekstas, tariamai negirdimas tuo metu scenoje esantiems veikėjams.

Example sentence(s):
  • Romėnų poeto tragedijose laiką stabdo: herojų replikos į šalį (skirtos publikai), įėjimo monologai, pokalbiai su savo dvasia (animus). - Literatūra  
  • Replikos į šalį buvo naudojamos ir klasikiniame teatre, pavyzdžiui, Shakespeare`o dramose, bet jos buvo kitokio pobūdžio - tarsi trumpi komentarai. O E.O`Neillo pjesėje šie "asides", kaip sakoma angliškai, yra jau ne replikos, o ilgiausi vidiniai monologai, kuriuos herojus taria pačiam sau ir kuriuose atsiskleidžia visas jo vidinis pasaulis. - Literatūra ir menas
