There's nothing wrong with it. I just don't want to read it if I need a Dictionary of Historic Slang by my side through the entire process. :/

I actually enjoy that. The slang in pulp crime, for example, is fascinating. And it's extremely funny to realise, once you've learned some Shakespearean English, exactly how bawdy and filthy some of his stuff is. The pinnacle of English literature, and he had this habit of telling really dirty jokes and making really bad puns.

And that's great if you understand it. To the rest of us, Shakespeare's just making up words or stringing together insults that don't make sense, usually before somebody has a long monologue and slits their wrists with seemingly no warning.

I just...can't read some of that stuff. Tried, and can't. Sorry.

Fair enough. I have a fascinating for archaic language, but not everyone has the same. (Actually very few do, I think, don't worry about it).

[(Anonymous)]

OK, I can see why you'd not want to read Shakespeare (then again that's what seeing plays is for - sometimes they put in handy gestures).
But from the 18th century, stuff is usually fairly readable. I don't know, maybe it's because I'm ESL, so I'm used to not understanding everything, but... not understanding everything is fine. If you don't understand a word, eventually it'll get repeated enough times that you get the general meaning, or it isn't and then it just wasn't important.
