Shakespeare's English errors

Nearly walked into that one, self-referential little faggot.

What are you on about? First of all, this is not a troll or a bait thread. Second of all, I compared him to Green to show that he's not as proficient in the English language as much as any common bad writer is. It was to show how bad of a writer he is.

Yup, sounds like a case of autism

I don't know if Shakespeare had autism or not, but that's an interesting theory that should be taken into consideration. Autism could explain his unusual English.

haha now this one was a good bait :DDD

(I will be saging my posts in this thread)

You should find a copy of The Tragedy of Arthur.
Its his most obscure play and rarely performed because its so full of errors.
Interesting because its only one of two Shakespeare plays to mention America and because it predicts a naval disaster similar to The Titanic.

Tragedy of Arthur is pleb tier

Shakespeare loves writing tragedies, but he never realised his own tragedy: his writing.

Is The Tragedy of Arthur even authentic? I'm not surprised it's full of errors; all of his plays are. I doubt it's obsecure for meaningful reasons, I bet it's the result of his hideous English.

this thread is giving me a fucking headache

Shakespeare's plays give me headaches too.

mentioning John Green ruined it imo

Shakespeare lived in a time before the standardization of English; and his improper use of grammar is the playfulness of a man who full knows the rules, and chooses to break them on purpose.

Consider this your token serious response for such a repugnant expression of crass ignorance.

>And why would he fake his death? Is he still alive?

Of course not. Shakespeare died centuries ago. There is no possible way I could be alive.

>his improper use of grammar is the playfulness of a man who full knows the rules, and chooses to break them on purpose.

First of all, you sound like a hardcore Shakespeare fanboy. Second, your reasoning is flawed. How would I know the difference between a retard's writing and an educated man's writing? By judging the quality of their grammar and vocabulary!

I could argue that the retard's nonsensical writing was done on purpose which shows that he's a man who full knows the rules.

Would you hail me as a genius if I started creating new words and writing without following the basic rules of grammar? No, of course not. Nor should you hail Shakespeare.

I know, I was being sarcastic.

>By judging the quality of their grammar and vocabulary!

All this means is that there is no difference between any writing so long as it's grammatically correct. That is to say the things I wrote when I was ten are the equal of the greatest writers in the world.

I know it's b8, it was just too tasty.

Oh, that's because English grammar is so primitive and word order so rigid that Shakespeare merely had to resort to some concessions.

wow

face it kit (or should I say william), nobody cares that you're still alive

Let me elaborate: the quality of a writing is measured by the grammar and verbal IQ of the writer, and the depth of its ideas and sophistication.

Or maybe it's because Shakespeare is no more than a fraud who lacks the intellectual faculties to write intelligibly.

>Horatio
>Before my God, I might not this believe
>Vor meinem Gott, Ich möchte das beileibe nicht.
It's good German; I'd even say it's fancy German. I believe it's not Shakespeare who did not know how to speak English but it's the rest of your upper classes whose Frisian Plattdeutsch skills went down the closet. No wonder he's the only author all the English speakers hold in high esteem.

You don't know how sarcasm works
