Yes that is literally a copy paste of the original text of beowulf
Beowulf was written in Old English
yeah it's from here
Looks like it stumbled across a few mistranslations
"I know I can treat you better than she can"
But other than that it appears to be mainly Old English
Look quantum man

Oo
It can't be an inconsistency when it is a literal straight copy from the original text of beowulf
Wa biรฐ รพรฆm รฐe sceal รพurh sliรฐne niรฐ sawle bescufan in fyres fรฆรพm, frofre ne wenan, wihte gewendan; wel biรฐ รพรฆm รพe mot รฆfter deaรฐdรฆge drihten secean ond to fรฆder fรฆรพmum freoรฐo wilnian
I prefer ancient English
Nay, drihten secean is supposed to be vice versa
no it's not because the writer who wrote this in old english didn't write it that way
I know not why am so sad
and he was a native old english speaker
But it wearies me you say it wearies you
It's not pure english
It's a dialect
It is pure old english
West Saxon.
it's West Saxon Old English
yeah that's the main literary dialect
if you see an Old English text it's probably gonna be West Saxon Old English
Main aspect is
"It was West Saxon that formed the basis for the literary standard of the later Old English period"
It hit one rock in transcripture
This guy is no Shakespeare
The guy that wrote beowulf is an ancient Shakespeare
<:PepeChill:378748692741750794>
not ancient
but
old
ok
There is no recorded author of beowulf
Is there
it's anonymous
Also
I think
It's not pure west saxon
I just noticed
I don't care
There's Northumbrian and Kentish linguistics
I know you don't know about it
Sure you do
It definitely took a stumble
Hello
It was written during Rurik's time

You'd expect it to be perfectly translated
Beowulf is a true story man
I know
Beowulf is a great epic
But I'm merely noting
they even found the hall it takes place in
The story took a run down the beaten path
Ahhhh so this is where Grendel comes from
But its convincing
Tales usually hyperbolize real things
So they're close to the truth
So sagas were semi non fiction
Book of Revelation is trippy man
Sidenote
Don't drop acid before reading
Retellers in medieval anglia
Were usually partially literate
all of you lads should watch man in the high castle
Nah
Nah

@Thule-Gesellschaft [โฉ] Plot sounds like my type of show, thanks
```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 โsexually active peopleโ to speak formally they may as well call them sluts.
@Supreme Leader Kim ๐งง it's a good show ya
lol it depicts the Reich as a borderline utopia
Surprised I haven't heard leftists sperge about it
Psalm 23
Well
hello there
I am here
Also, sexually active does not infer prostitution
If someone goes home and has sex with their wife every night, they are not prostitutes (well, they most likely arenโt)
