NO ONE Knows How To Use Thou/thee/thy/thine And I Need To See That Change If Ur Going To Keep Making
NO ONE knows how to use thou/thee/thy/thine and i need to see that change if ur going to keep making “talking like a medieval peasant” jokes. /lh
They play the same roles as I/me/my/mine. In modern english, we use “you” for both the subject and the direct object/object of preposition/etc, so it’s difficult to compare “thou” to “you”.
So the trick is this: if you are trying to turn something Olde, first turn every “you” into first-person and then replace it like so:
“I” → “thou”
“Me” → “thee”
“My” → “thy”
“Mine” → “thine”
Let’s suppose we had the sentences “You have a cow. He gave it to you. It is your cow. The cow is yours”.
We could first imagine it in the first person-
“I have a cow. He gave it to me. It is my cow. The cow is mine”.
And then replace it-
“Thou hast a cow. He gave it to thee. It is thy cow. The cow is thine.”

Important question . How do you pronounce Laios (main character of dunmeshi)
Also tell me where you're from if you feel like it !! reblog for reach etc
EDIT: I mispelled it (Laois instead of Laios), but my original question still stands!! ^^
I'm asking because "Laois" is a county in Ireland (where I'm from) and it's pronounced Leesh, but I'm curious to see how people outside Ireland say it

I hate when I accidentally write beautiful poetry in a smut scene because then I can’t show people it in context but it doesn’t make sense out of context. How dare my writing skills be this good.
