NO ONE knows how to use thou/thee/thy/thine and i need to see that change if ur going to keep making “talking like a medieval peasant” jokes. /lh

They play the same roles as I/me/my/mine. In modern english, we use “you” for both the subject and the direct object/object of preposition/etc, so it’s difficult to compare “thou” to “you”.

So the trick is this: if you are trying to turn something Olde, first turn every “you” into first-person and then replace it like so:

“I” →  “thou”

“Me” →  “thee”

“My” →  “thy”

“Mine” →  “thine”

Let’s suppose we had the sentences “You have a cow. He gave it to you. It is your cow. The cow is yours”.

We could first imagine it in the first person-

“I have a cow. He gave it to me. It is my cow. The cow is mine”.

And then replace it-

“Thou hast a cow. He gave it to thee. It is thy cow. The cow is thine.”

5 tips to write less cringe

Do you ever look at something you wrote and let out an audible “yikes”?

No shame, it happens all around. There’s always parts of our writing we wish would improve. Here are my best tips on what to pay attention to in order to avoid this.

Know your whys Knowing why you’re telling a story is still one of the most underrated “tips” out there. You’ll tend to solve 99% of your problems if you just know the reason you’re telling the story, and what specific thematic idea you’re actually trying to deliver.

Indulge in subtext Subtext can be a life-saver. If you’re going into a scene that you don’t know how to tackle, lay out the subtext first.

What is each character trying to achieve?

What is each character feeling?

What does each character want to avoid?

What’s the underlying conflict of the scene?

Are there any thematic arguments you could express that will make the scene feel more relatable?

Immerse yourself in description It’s easy to blaze through a scene when you know where your plot is headed, but allow yourself

Use:

- the senses to immerse readers into the scene

- internal reflection to allow readers a look into the inner workings of your character!

Don’t rush things When we know what we want our story to deliver, it’s difficult not to rush into the scenes we really want to write, or the twists we really want to reveal. But you need to allow yourself the space to build these storylines out and let them grow on their own time!

Read more In whatever way you wish to strengthen your writing, the absolute best way is to find books with similar genres, topics, or styles that you aspire to. Read them with understanding and if you like elements of the author’s writing, figure out how they got there.

Something that’s literally insane to me is the amount of hypocrisy that anti-Jedi people have in regards to the Jedi adopting Anakin.

(or “kidnapping” him, as they’d phrase it—as if Shmi wasn’t literally saying “take Anakin with you to become a Jedi” every other line in TPM, but whatever-)

———

The Jedi: *adopt Anakin*

Anti-Jedi people/Stanakins: they kidnapped him, abused him, brainwashed him into suppressing his emotions, trapped him so that he couldn’t leave, and told him love was evil!!!

The Jedi: *say they probably shouldn’t adopt Anakin since their lifestyle wouldn’t be a good fit for him*

Anti-Jedi people/Stanakins: How dare they not immediately accept him into the Order!!! How dare they actually have criteria for someone joining like any other religion!!! How dare they have valid reasons for thinking that being a Jedi wouldn’t be a good fit for Anakin!!!

———

And it’s usually the same people saying both arguments, depending on which one better fits their argument.

Like…pick a side, for the love of god.

Should the Jedi have not taken him in or should they have taken him in? You can’t have both.

And if you think they were wrong to adopt Anakin, why aren’t y’all getting pissed at Shmi? She’s the one that kept pressuring Qui-Gon to take Anakin and train him to become a Jedi!

And you can’t say- “well, she just wanted to get Anakin out of slavery, she can’t be blamed” -because Shmi could’ve asked Qui-Gon to do anything with Anakin! Take him to an adoption agency, make sure he finds a good home, get him away from Tatooine and make sure he’s safe, etc.

But she told him to take Anakin to the Order and train him to become a Jedi.

And, even if Shmi didn’t know of any other options for Anakin, did y’all want Qui-Gon to fucking lie to her? Say he’ll train Anakin and then just give him to an adoption agency while flipping Shmi the bird?

Or would you have rather Qui-Gon left him in slavery with Shmi? Because remember, Qui-Gon tried to free Shmi but Watto refused to sell her, he would only sell Anakin.

Trick question! Y’all would bash the Jedi no matter what they did!

Like, what was the other option that y’all apparently have in mind? Since you keep shit talking Qui-Gon/the Jedi for literally every decision they could’ve possibly made.

It just…the hypocrisy amazes me.
