They do not know what Old English is. If they understood that Old English was the language in which Beowulf was written and which disappeared about 1100 they would know that Shakespeare could not have written in or even understood it.
People tend to get caught up in the reality of their own generation, and anything that belonged to an earlier generation gets lumped together as "old". Chaucer, Shakespeare, Jane Austen, The Beatles--it's all "old". I mean the Beatles wrote "Please Please Me" and not "Plz plz me" so it must have been Old English right?

How do you say 'your welcome' in Shakespearean language?
Shakespeare's language is English. In English, "your welcome" means "the welcome that belongs to you", as in this quotation from Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors: "I hold your dainties cheap, sir, and your welcome dear." Clearly he thinks that the person's welcome is valuable but his dainties are not. Of course, you may have meant "you're welcome" which means that you are welcome (to whatever you are thanking me for). An example of this is from Shakespeare's Cymbeline: "Send your trunk to me; it shall safe be kept, And truly yielded you. You're very welcome."

How do you say the in Shakespearean language?
Shakespearean English is english. It is the same language. If you wish to write in Shakespeare's style, first start writing in blank verse, or iambic pentameter. Use metaphors, similes and personifications to enrich the dialogue. Employ allusions to Roman history and mythology. Where needed, use long and complex sentences especially in description. To maintain the rhythm you may have to invert some verbs. There is no need to use any archaic words or grammatical forms (Shakespeare did do this sometimes but it is not the essence of his style.) For if his verse be copied by your words, And drip in golden drops from silver pen, Like honey from the bee's most careful comb, Then forth your thoughts like Icarus will fly, And seem to all you see to be the words Of our most glorious Bard and gracious Will Who used no language but the tongue Of mother England as is spoken now; From this poor sample you can clearly see That anyone can Shakespeare's style employ. You must admit that it is clearly true That with these hints it's something you can do.
How do you say idiot in Elizabethan English?
Elizabethan English is still English, and "idiot" in English is "idiot". It is ridiculous to think that Shakespeare wrote in a foreign language. Examples of "idiot" in Shakespeare include "Tis a tale told by an idiot" (Macbeth) and "the portrait of a blinking idiot" (Merchant of Venice)
How do you say your in shakespearean?
There is no such language as "Shakespearean". Shakespeare wrote in modern English, the same language you write in. That is why when Shakespeare wrote "Friends, Romans, Countrymen: lend me your ears", "your" was his way of saying "your". It's exactly the same as it is now.But in the dialect of modern English Shakespeare used, they made a greater use of the second person singular pronouns and verb endings than we now do. In pre-Modern English, as in most other European languages, there were different pronouns and verb endings if you were talking to one person rather than to a group. If you know French, think of the difference between "tu es" and "vous êtes". Well, in older forms of English if you were talking to a crowd (as Antony is in Julius Caesar) you would say "lend me your ears" but if you were only talking to one person you would say, "lend me thy ears". At the time Shakespeare was writing a lot of Londoners particularly were using these forms less and less even for talking to one person, so it would be "your ears" unless someone were talking very respectfully or affectionately. (People talking to pets, to lovers, to their employers or to God.) But Shakespeare was from Warwickshire and his Warwickshire English was a little old-fashioned.The word "thy" and all the other second-person singular forms are still a part of Modern English, although rarely seen outside of a religious or poetic context. However, how does Darth Vader address the Emperor? "What is thy bidding, my Master?"
