In this video, I explain 8 common problems people have when trying to read Shakespeare's language:

1) Pronouns: tricky, abstract words.
2) Shifts: abrupt changes in time, place, thought, or idea.
3) SOV=SVO: Sally a burger ate = Sally ate a burger.
4) Punctuation: your friend; I'll explain why.
5) False Friends: you probably know this one.
6) Zeitgeist: very cool word.
7) Junk junk junk: Shakespeare is full of this stuff.
9) Apostrophe: More insanity.
