I just want to say. the way you speak modern English is very clear. sharp and you have good breath control. keep up the good work!

Hearing you speak old English is so strange, thinking a language so different from modern English became it is so interesting

Do you get to speak conversationally with others who understand fluently because I would think it would be frustrating to just be uttering these amazing words alone like into a mirror

Herr Umdrehen :

some of the letters in Old English also exist in Old Norse and if King Harold had won the Battle of Hastings William the bastard would have never brought his Norman French over here and we probably would be speaking something very Germanic today instead of what we do spake

Germanic north barbaric language like Vikings with some few hundread worlds for primitive communicationwas civilized by the Roman Kelts by adding latin and thousands Greek worlds for example ....like kiss (κυσεω..I am kissing in Homiric) ....excellent ( ex -εξ from Ηellen -Greeks...)
