•Learning to read Shakespeare is a bit like learning a foreign language, but it is well worth the effort.

•Here are a few tricks to understanding Shakespeare – this will help you impress the ladies as well !

1. Thou, thee and thy – These mean you, you, and your, respectively. These words dropped out of our language a couple centuries ago, but Shakespeare uses them. The verb that is used with “thou” changes as well.

•Example: “ Thou wilt fall backward when thou hast more wit,

• Wilt thou not Jule?”

•Translation: You will fall backward• when you have more wit,• Will you not, Jule?

2. Inversion – Sometimes Shakespeare will invert the verb and the subject.

• For instance, he might write, “Went I to Bellarmine.” instead of “I Went to Bellarmine.”

• Example: “Then dreams he of another’s benefice.”

• Translation: He dreams of another’s benefice.

3. Diction – There are three problems with Shakespeare’s word choice.

• First - he uses words that no longer exist in the English we speak.

• Second - he uses words that are in our language, but now have a different meaning to us.

• Third – he uses words that are in our language, but we simply don’t know what these words mean – you should look them up.

Some translations to help you …• still = always

• soft = slowly, gently

• mark = listen

• an = if

• fell = cruel, fierce, deadly

• to-night = last night

• perforce = we must, you must

• kind = true to one’s nature

• ay = yes

• fain = gladly

• marry = swear word

• anon = at once

• plague, pox, ague = disease

• wherefore= why

• THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE DIFFICULT WORDS …

4. Contractions – for purposes of rhythm Shakespeare uses contractions to cut out syllables.•Examples:

•o’ = on•th’ = the•i’ = in•‘t – it•ta’en = taken•‘em = them•‘a = he (often)•o’er = over

Copy these lines down and translate them on a separate piece of paper.

1. For I ne’er saw true beauty till this night.

2. Tickling a parson’s nose as a’ lies asleep.

3. O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?

4. Do not swear at all/ or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self …

5. A plague a both your houses.

6. Tybalt, liest thou there in thy bloody sheet?
