How do you say she does in shakespearean?

Answer 1

Elizabethan English is also called Early Modern English because it is Modern English, the same as we speak and write nowadays. "We" in Modern English is "we", and never anything else. See Claudius's line in Hamlet, "We have done but greenly and huggermugger to inter him."

Answer 2

"Shakespearean" is not a language. Shakespeare wrote in English, the same as you and me.

e.g. "She does abuse our ears: to prison with her" All's Well that Ends Well V,3

"This is the prettiest low-born lass that ever

Ran on the green-sward: nothing she does or seems

But smacks of something greater than herself,

Too noble for this place." Winter's Tale IV,4

"But she knows what she does." King Lear II,4

"Now shame upon you, whether she does or no!" King John, II, 1

"Me believe it! You may as soon make her that you love believe it; which, I warrant, she is apter to do than to confess she does." As You Like It III,2

"What is it she does now? Look, how she rubs her hands." Macbeth V,1

Shakespeare also used a different form of the word "does", which was "doth". Apparently the third person singular ending for verbs, which is now universally "-s" could also be "-th" in some dialects including the Wiltshire one which Shakespeare grew up with. Thus "he walks" could also be "he walketh", "she sings" could also be "she singeth", and "she does" could also be "she doeth" or "she doth" for short. The "doth" form appears a lot in Shakespeare's earlier plays, to be replaced increasingly by "does" the longer he hung out in London. An example is "Brother, she is not worth what she doth cost The holding." Troilus and Cressida II,2

Shakespeare continued to use the "doth" form to the end of his career especially when it was used as an auxiliary verb with another verb: "she doth unroll", she doth resemble", "she doth court", "she doth talk", and as quoted above, "she doth cost".

Answer 3

Elizabethan English (sometimes wrongly called Shakespearean Language) is still English. "His" in English is "his". Shakespeare uses it eight times in the "All the world's a stage" speech alone. There is no other word in English for "his".

If you see a word in Shakespeare that looks familiar, odds are that it's exactly the word you think it is (not all of the time, but mostly).

Answer 4

Elizabethan English is Modern English, and so "she" is "she". E.g. "Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright"--Romeo and Juliet.
