What does contest mean in Shakespeare?
Shakespeare spoke English, so you will not be surprised to find that "contest" means "contest" even on the rare occasions when Shakespeare uses it. Which is, exactly twice. In Coriolanus, Aufidius says, "here I clip/ The anvil of my sword, and do contest/ As hotly and as nobly with thy love/ As ever in ambitious strength I did/ Contend against thy valour."
