I promise

2018-10-05 05:43:11 UTC

Some words are inconsistent with old english

2018-10-05 05:43:13 UTC

It's from beowulf man

2018-10-05 05:43:17 UTC

It's old english

2018-10-05 05:43:31 UTC

yeah man it's west saxon old english

2018-10-05 05:43:32 UTC

You're sure it's 100% accurate

2018-10-05 05:43:34 UTC

Like

2018-10-05 05:43:36 UTC

100%

2018-10-05 05:43:44 UTC

Yes that is literally a copy paste of the original text of beowulf

2018-10-05 05:43:52 UTC

Beowulf was written in Old English

2018-10-05 05:43:54 UTC

yeah it's from here

2018-10-05 05:44:03 UTC

Looks like it stumbled across a few mistranslations

2018-10-05 05:44:15 UTC

"I know I can treat you better than she can"

2018-10-05 05:44:18 UTC

But other than that it appears to be mainly Old English

2018-10-05 05:44:24 UTC

Look quantum man

2018-10-05 05:44:27 UTC

<:PepeChill:378748692741750794>

2018-10-05 05:44:31 UTC

you clearly don't know what old english looks like

2018-10-05 05:44:34 UTC

because that is old english

2018-10-05 05:44:37 UTC

yeah that's pure old english

2018-10-05 05:44:46 UTC

There were a few incosistencies.

2018-10-05 05:44:49 UTC

What's the present generation of english

2018-10-05 05:44:54 UTC

modern english

2018-10-05 05:44:55 UTC

Grammatical Errors

2018-10-05 05:45:02 UTC

Oo

2018-10-05 05:45:04 UTC

It can't be an inconsistency when it is a literal straight copy from the original text of beowulf

2018-10-05 05:45:07 UTC

2018-10-05 05:45:16 UTC

I prefer ancient English

2018-10-05 05:45:31 UTC

Nay, drihten secean is supposed to be vice versa

2018-10-05 05:45:53 UTC

no it's not because the writer who wrote this in old english didn't write it that way

2018-10-05 05:45:56 UTC

I know not why am so sad

2018-10-05 05:46:00 UTC

and he was a native old english speaker

2018-10-05 05:46:10 UTC

But it wearies me you say it wearies you

2018-10-05 05:46:39 UTC

It's not pure english

2018-10-05 05:46:43 UTC

It's a dialect

2018-10-05 05:46:48 UTC

It is pure old english

2018-10-05 05:46:52 UTC

West Saxon.

2018-10-05 05:46:53 UTC

it's West Saxon Old English

2018-10-05 05:46:58 UTC

yeah that's the main literary dialect

2018-10-05 05:47:10 UTC

if you see an Old English text it's probably gonna be West Saxon Old English

2018-10-05 05:47:16 UTC

Main aspect is

2018-10-05 05:47:21 UTC

"It was West Saxon that formed the basis for the literary standard of the later Old English period"

2018-10-05 05:47:25 UTC

It hit one rock in transcripture

2018-10-05 05:47:44 UTC

This guy is no Shakespeare

2018-10-05 05:48:10 UTC

The guy that wrote beowulf is an ancient Shakespeare

2018-10-05 05:48:11 UTC

<:PepeChill:378748692741750794>

2018-10-05 05:48:13 UTC

not ancient

2018-10-05 05:48:14 UTC

but

2018-10-05 05:48:15 UTC

old

2018-10-05 05:48:16 UTC

ok

2018-10-05 05:48:24 UTC

There is no recorded author of beowulf

2018-10-05 05:48:26 UTC

Is there

2018-10-05 05:48:33 UTC

it's anonymous

2018-10-05 05:48:35 UTC

Also

2018-10-05 05:48:39 UTC

I think

2018-10-05 05:48:41 UTC

It's not pure west saxon

2018-10-05 05:48:52 UTC

I just noticed

2018-10-05 05:48:56 UTC

I don't care

2018-10-05 05:49:08 UTC

There's Northumbrian and Kentish linguistics

2018-10-05 05:49:21 UTC

I know you don't know about it

2018-10-05 05:49:27 UTC

Sure you do

2018-10-05 05:49:41 UTC

It definitely took a stumble

2018-10-05 05:49:44 UTC

Hello

2018-10-05 05:49:50 UTC

It was written during Rurik's time

2018-10-05 05:49:52 UTC

Like

2018-10-05 05:50:07 UTC

You'd expect it to be perfectly translated

2018-10-05 05:50:20 UTC

Beowulf is a true story man

2018-10-05 05:50:26 UTC

I know

2018-10-05 05:50:34 UTC

Beowulf is a great epic

2018-10-05 05:50:45 UTC

But I'm merely noting

2018-10-05 05:50:51 UTC

they even found the hall it takes place in

2018-10-05 05:50:54 UTC

The story took a run down the beaten path

2018-10-05 05:50:58 UTC

Ahhhh so this is where Grendel comes from

2018-10-05 05:51:01 UTC

But its convincing

2018-10-05 05:51:23 UTC

Tales usually hyperbolize real things

2018-10-05 05:51:34 UTC

So they're close to the truth

2018-10-05 05:51:43 UTC

So sagas were semi non fiction

2018-10-05 05:52:54 UTC

Book of Revelation is trippy man

Retellers in medieval anglia

2018-10-05 05:53:14 UTC

Were usually partially literate

@Thule-Gesellschaft [โ˜ฉ] Plot sounds like my type of show, thanks

2018-10-05 06:05:51 UTC

```The Man in the High Castle (2015)

This series, loosely based Philip K. Dick's novel of the same name, takes a look at what the world might look like had the outcome of World War II turned out differently. ```

When people say โ€œsexually active peopleโ€ to speak formally they may as well call them sluts.

2018-10-05 06:09:24 UTC
2018-10-05 06:09:31 UTC

lol it depicts the Reich as a borderline utopia

Also, sexually active does not infer prostitution

2018-10-05 06:17:48 UTC

If someone goes home and has sex with their wife every night, they are not prostitutes (well, they most likely arenโ€™t)
