I'm German and I tried reading Shakespeare in the original.

As you may know, I speak english fluently but . . . gotta admit 'ye olden English' from back then is difficult when you are not a native speaker.


Mainly because it is no longer spoken like that today . .

I'm used to conversations in english online but sometimes 'ye olden english' can be tough for one.
