I think you mean "Balderdash" Sir.

This huge error doesn't make you look silly at all.
Beat me to it good sir, well done.

OT: I daresay most of these words might be considered normal words to many people, especially Brits getting on in years. 'Verily' though, is definitely old-timey.
So!

I'faith, nuncle, verily thou art truly an atheling, and I kith you, thou art simply the finest man sith erst Man donned cloth.
Are you trying to type in French?
French?!
Sir, your knowledge of Old English is woefully inadequate, if indeed it exists at all!!
Well seeing as how I am not from the 16th century nor am I a fan of older literature, yes, my knowledge of Old English probably isn't all that good. Which is why I asked you the question, for all I know, you could've been typing French.

Eeek. If you're American than I guess you may be forgiven, but come on. Verily, thou art? Really French?

Fiddle-Sticks and Flap-Doodles...

"Good Sir, I challenge you to a duel.." - one of my common British sayings..

"Oh Shite" - Another of my more common and modern British sayings..

Ahh I know some sort of "Americans don't now anything" comment would come up eventually. Have you maybe considered that I've just never read Old English before? I'm guessing the answer is no, since you simply assumed that I'm just another dumb American.

Hey now, I never inferred that Americans were dumb. Though I admit, I have assumed that Americans are generally clueless about many English things[footnote]Which lots of people have confirmed by being both American and painfully ignorant, though to be fair I don't notice the hundreds of people who aren't.[/footnote], of which Old English seems like it would certainly be one. In hindsight, even mentioning Americans was a mistake, and I apologise. I must seem a right arse...

While certainly I wouldn't expect many people to go and read old works for fun, surely you've read something of Shakespeare?

I'm addicted to 'Oh! Tish!', I really ought to use it less.

Oh, and if 'Be seeing you' counts, I love that phrase.

It's fine, you just need to find a better way to phrase stuff like that.

I have read the works of Shakespeare, Hamlet and Macbeth about 2 or 3 years ago, I really need to read them again though.

Ah, I really do.

All of it's fresh in my mind because I've had to perform Romeo and Juliet at school...
