Thou, Thee, Thy, Thine

[brosedshield]

 A medieval porn-slanted grammar lesson, pretty much lifted from a comment discussion with lavinialavender who is my grammar guru and beta goddess.

It's here now because I want to be able to find it quickly, because you NEVER KNOW when appropriate formal pronouns will become important.

* * *

thou = you (subjective, like when you'd use "I" instead of "me" for first person; Wilt thou come with me?)

thee = you (objective, when you'd use "me" instead of "I" for first person; I desire thee. I would like to bugger thee. *eyebrow wiggle*)

thy = your (Show me thy sword...baby)

thine = yours (This buttplug is not mine, it is thine.)

Lavinia, is you used as the plural subjective? I read that somewhere...Give me a phrase and I'll add it in. *grin* Let it be a menage! A menage of any number you desire! Menage a huit!

Sweet! Thank you! Probably the book I read used "you" instead of "ye" because it made more sense to spell that way. I mean, I don't think the novel was the height of precision and accuracy. *grin*

*bounce bounce* Shall have to check out the links. Grammarness is great, though I consistently fail to actually check and correct, alas.
