This is a passage from Romeo and Juliet in the so-called "original pronunciation" i.e. a reconstruction of how London English (or rather a couple varieties thereof) was pronounced in the early 1600s, from your friendly neighborhood historical linguist and poetry nerd. For this one I gave Mercutio a somewhat more innovative accent than Romeo, with raising and monophthongization of the WAIT vowel.
If you like this video and want to help me make more things like it, wherein I read texts in dead accents, consider making a pledge at my patreon: / azforeman
There you can get access to all kinds of subscriber-only stuff like my weekly readings of Shakespeare's sonnets and the King James Bible in various 17th century accents, and you'll get advance access to my public recordings as well (this recording for example was made available five days early).Got questions? (Like "Why does this not sound like Crystal's OP!?") Check my FAQ: / faq-64053058
