bad english, lately. Or should I say: Old English.      Did'ya
know that Shakespeare was horrible at English?     At language
in general.      Then again, everyone at that time was awful at
English.     It's because at that time, and the time before
then, and a few more after then, English wasn't structured. It
had no real rules or real restrictions. People could use words
and give them entirely different meanings...     People often
think "Oh, well, at that time, that word meant something TOTALLY
different- we just limited it with how streamlined we are
nowadays."... but that's only half-true.      Y'see... words
back then usually meant something TOTALLY different, because
rarely did anyone have a REAL grasp on what the word meant! It
wasn't just different back then, it was also DIFFERENT FOR
ALMOST EVERY SINGLE PERSON b
