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.
