Hello, Middle English!

Thu Oct 1, 2009, 2:47 PM
Bah, Old English can suck it.
I am so glad that the Normans decided to invade England. :|
They made English SO much easier for those of us that speak it today.
I mean, now we don't have strong verbs or a lot of gender specific stuff or anything!

Therefore, I :heart: the Normans.

Yeah, and I just choked on my own spit. Hmm...

So tomorrow is the day my practice speech is due. It's not the final presentation, but I still have to give my speech. It's a little long, but that's way better than being too short... plus I'll probably speed up once I get up there since I'll be so nervous. ^^;

And I wanted to ask you guys a question.
Is it weird to test your friend's mom?

Because that's what I've been doing thanks to Ted. :|
Not that it's not interesting, lol.
I mean, who else could I have philosophical conversations with through texting? XD

I hate Old English as well. Although, I can't even read Old English. My Beowulf book for AP English was half in Old English and half in somewhat Modern English. I feel your pain.

Good luck with your practice speech.


Ummmm... I think there are weirder things to do with your friend's mom. lol

Engish is a horrible, evil language that was delivered onto mankind straight from the 9th circle of hell.

Personally, I actually found Old English easier than Modern, though I suspect it has something to do with the fact that I'm used to the whole overly complicated gender specific/verb usage thing...

The English language in general can suck it. ;)
