@p @freemayonnaise @nyanide @Hoss @Hyperhidrosis You can read Chaucer. Just read it out loud and use your ear. It’s the closest dialect of Middle English to modern English. It’s just spelled the way they pronounced it.
Now Sir Gawain & the Green Knight on the other hand might fuck you because they were still using all old school Anglo-Saxon adjectives on that side of the island. You don’t know those words.
Chaucer read out loud sounds closer to English than the average Indian call center.
