Title: my archaic english is poor :(
Post by: Darrav Ulcrus on June 06, 2007, 12:52:02 pm
for all who don't know archaic english is the use of words such as thou or thy, rather than you or they (or something)

Aye, Sinist is correct. The archaic English tends to be more used in the church.

FYI, "sa'" isn't archaic English. Let me dig out a Ye Olde English book I read once, I'll post most of the funny words.
