What does Shakespeare mean by the word gi'?

This apparently strange Shakespearean word is simply the word 'Give'.For example: "God gi' ye godd'en" means "God give you good evening" or, in modern words, "Good evening".In Romeo and Juliet (Act 1 Scene 2) when the servant says "God gi' god-den" he means "God give you a good-evening".[Gi' is also short for gin, an Anglic dialect preposition meaning before ( in time) and adverb meaning when, or at the time that. Cf Robert Burns's "Gin a body meet a body comin thro' the rye..."]

What is the name of Shakespeare's theater and where was it located?

The theatre most associated with William Shakespeare was the Globe which was in London. Although the original building was destroyed, a modern but good representation has been rebuilt close to the location of the original. Although Shakespeare acted in it (among other places) and his plays (among others) were performed there, Shakespeare was not responsible for constructing theGlobe Theatreand did not own it, having only a one-eighth monetary interest in it.


Why was the tempest written?

Shakespeare wrote plays because it was part of his job. A good play put bums on seats, which meant more money for the partners in the theatre company putting on the play (Shakespeare was one of them) as well as more money for the owners of the theatre building (Shakespeare was one of them also). All of Shakespeare's plays were written to make money for Shakespeare.
