Question

‘The road not taken’ is a profound literary piece. Why do you think the poet gave it the title ‘The road not taken’ instead of ‘The road taken’?​

Answer 1

Because the poem isn't “The Road Less Traveled.” It's “The Road Not Taken.” And the road not taken, of course, is the road one didn't take—which means that the title passes over the “less traveled” road the speaker claims to have followed in order to foreground the road he never tried.
