Go take up half a screen with your poster style!

Your 'language skills' are exhibited eloquently with your imaginative GFY.

Agreed!

I have no idea why someone started to go down the avenue of a personal attack.

This an open forum - and if a discussion is not interesting for someone - then you just don't read or reply - and there is also an 'ignore' feature.

There is no place here for personal abuse - and when it gets uncivilized and includes crass language (direct or implied) - the moderators step in - hopefully.

previous message wrote: Very few of us still speak like Chaucer or even like Dr Samuel Johnson.

Beowulf was written around 700 AD in Old English.
Chaucer wrote around 1400 AD in Middle English.
If you think that Chaucer wrote Beowulf, you have serious problems.

Was not referring to the 'Middle English' of Chaucer - and certainly not to the 'Old English' Beowulf of MANY centuries before that - the best part of a 'millenium,' in fact.

And surely not to Ethelberht's code of the 7th century. :)
