William Shakespeare y’all ready to get

Shakespeare has been translated into
Klingon ah huh talk ba topic that is the
question Shakespeare’s Hamlet has been
translated into at least 75 different
languages the strangest of which is
probably Klingon it’s Chiba hey spelled
with all right cool Klingon Hamlet was
originally published by the Klingon
language Institute and was translated as
part of the Klingon Shakespeare
restoration project the book claims that
Shakespeare was originally a Klingon and
his works have been shown on earth in
English as an elaborate piece of human
propaganda not an malcolm 10th wall rap
at table number four Shakespeare is
responsible for the North American
Starling Eugene chieftain a Shakespeare
enthusiast from the late 19th century
tried to bring a bunch of birds to
America that were referenced in
Shakespeare’s poems and plays Shukla’s
goal was to introduce every
Shakespearean bird to America most of
his releases were unsuccessful and sadly
resulted in lots of dead birds it’s ok
some of these things happen
the major exception to this was the
Starling which really took to the new
world a little too well even in summer
very iridescent purple green with yellow
beaks in winter they are brown with
white spots and dark Bills there are
currently around 200 million starlings
in America and it’s become North
America’s most common songbird their
huge numbers and voracious appetites
have made them an invasive species
the New York Times once called them
quote the costliest and most noxious
Birds on our continent number three
Macbeth isn’t cursed it’s just popular
what about the unfortunate member of the
audience who were struck by a prop
during fight scene suffered a massive
heart attack and died on the spot
there is a history of accidents and
death associated with the production of
Macbeth that has led many to believe
that it’s cursed
this likely isn’t true a possible origin
for the superstition comes from the fact
that it was a surefire crowd-pleaser
and so if a given play was failing it
could be canceled and replaced by
Macbeth the Queen My Lord is dead so
actors may have started to dread Macbeth
because if it was being practiced nearby
they knew their show was going to be
cancelled accidents have happened during
the play but it’s likely because one
there are a lot of fight scenes in the
play and two it has been staged
literally millions of times in the past
400 years so accidents were bound to
happen
number two contrary to popular belief
Shakespeare didn’t coin all the words he
gave us handy words like eyeball puppy
dog and anchovy and more show Effie
words like dauntless hiss merge and
lackluster there is no doubt that
Shakespeare poetry was innovative but
some angle files are way too
enthusiastic when crediting him with
inventing new words sometimes he’s
credited with the creation of as many as
3,300 new words of course it’s possible
other people use these words first
but the dictionary writers liked looking
them up in Shakespeare because there was
more cross-dressing and people choking
each other’s eyes out digital technology
has since dropped that number to under
sixteen hundred and it falls every year
as more books become digitized and
earlier usages are discovered
a lot of these coinages become less
impressive when you realize that most of
them are either existing words used in a
new way or words borrowed from other
languages but not all on caught on here
are some of the ones that didn’t see if
you can put them into a sentence for me
Walter II watch watch I’m going to smoke
drink watch at the moment the number
also shrinks dramatically when you look
at the words that didn’t catch on like
fuss tellurian west wrist and flap
dragon kind of disappointed flap dragon
didn’t catch on finally the number might
be even lower because Shakespeare wrote
at a time when publishing was rare and
many books that he borrowed from didn’t
survive the century’s number one
Shakespeare works better than self-help
books that’s a good fish flittering
scientists at liverpool university have
been examining brain scans of people
reading poetry to see what it does to
the brain they took a bunch of passages
from Shakespeare and made people read
them then modernize the spelling and
made them read it again she helped me
learn how to read the simplified texts
didn’t do much for the brain but they
found that reading the original versions
with all the olden words and strange
metaphors made the parts of the brain
that are associated with reappraisal
mechanisms light up
this suggests that poetry makes you
rethink your own life through the lens
of what you’ve just read and it does so
far more effectively than reading
self-help books basically Shakespeare is
the Elizabethan dr. Phil but that does
not make dr. Phil the modern Shakespeare
they don’t want to stand up on national
television and say holy are you kidding
me
so what do you think whit’s thou by type
