You don't need to speak old English or medieval English fluently. You only need to know enough to speak.
EXAMPLES: *\/Old English\/* "We'll have a jolly good time eh wot?" *\/Medieval English\/* "Thou hast insulted me for the last time, knave!" Just try it, you'll probably get hooked on it pretty quick.

Re: Old English Speaking Thread
Oy, Illusions of Sand. From whither doth thou hail (XD I'll never get the hang of this)? And to find that thee be a Christian... Pray do pray for me. I have grave need of it. And may thy faith never be lost from you; the world we live in has great need of it.
