This was something we did in English yesterday, we spokist in Shakespearian fashion. I thought this would be fun for us to try.
How to speak like Shakespeare!:
1. Add the ending of "st" or "ith" to as many words as possible.
2. Use Old English. Ex. Thy, thee, thou, thine, doth
3. Mix up word order Ex. She went to the store. To the store went she.

The easiest way to do this is to ask a question in Shakespearian then let someone answer in Shakespearian.

I'll start:

Shall thee respondst to thine threadith?:rotfl:

Have Funith!
