Zeus 05/17/21 2:49:28 PM #17:	FrozenBananas posted... but the a literally separates two different words This. If anything, the topic should be complaining that differently-spelled words have the same pronounciation, but I guess that'd be homonym-phobic.

Zeus 05/17/21 8:11:30 PM #24:	SKARDAVNELNATE posted... Thee was the common form and You was the sophisticated form of addressing someone. Eventually Thee fell out of use and now it sounds like the more fancy word. Well, it was thou and thee, not just thee. For example, it would be "Thou must wear pants in a bakery", whereas you'd say "The baker gave thee a cake" (or, to use a more famous example, "Get thee to a nunnery"). Then it would be, "Can I have a slice of thine cake?" In short, "you" is a lot simpler because it's one thing vs using "thou" and "thee," then the possessive form is more intuitive. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:954016102] in "Aisl...

Eventually Thee fell out of use and now it sounds like the more fancy word. I've actually heard the King James bible blamed for that. Because it uses thee/thou and whatnot quite liberally, it created the sense that those were special God words and that alternatives were more casual and fit for everyday, non-divine use. The irony is that it was written using those words for the sake of portraying a more casual, relaxed relationship with a God who used informal language to help everyone feel more comfortable. Dunno how true that is, and I'm sure there's more to it than that, but it makes sense. --- This is my signature.
