Monday's homework:
- Who was the best insulter? Who has more vivid insults, Shakespeare's era or our own? Why? The best insulter in my opinion was elena, because she put a lot of feeling into her work and she also used body language. I think we have better insults then in Shakespeare because our insults are easier to pronounce and they are more hurtful.
- How can something like that, which is fun, devolve into something much more serious? Maybe if we lived in that age and knew the meaning of all those words we would take it more seriously and maybe be insulted by those words.
What makes modern insults more hurtful than those from the past?
ReplyDeleteModern insults go more to the point then the once in the past. For example in the past instead of saying ugly they said eye-insulting. Plus, our insults are shorter, easier to pronounce and you don't need a lot of brain to understand them.
DeleteI think that insults from the past were more insulting than modern ones because now we can use almost every word and put in a context which is similar as a bad word.
