NOW you are aware it is modern english. Before you had no clue, example:
" It'd be nice if someone said "Hey, we should put these books out in modern English too, so people can understand it." If someone did that, they'd be my new hero. But no one has. Why? Cause old English is beauuuuuuutiful. "
Do you always add cunt after you finish your argument?

Death to Shakespeare. Too bad he's already dead.

SHAKESPEARE IS IN MODERN ENGLISH IDIOT.
It's not 'old english', you wouldn't be able to read OLD english without translation
Shakespeare is in no way simple, but it is indeed modern english.
What do you actually think people spoke like that in the 'old english days'?
No, because this is art, it's poetry, just like how poetry that we write sounds different than how we speak.
And by the way, going to pinkmonkey.com helps you understand the basic plotline of shakespeare's works, NOT the beauty and detail with which he enriches his works in.
You should study a little bit ABOUT the man himself before you go complaining about his writing.
