In Chicago, the Mayor has declared today “Talk Like Shakespeare Day.”

We here at 7 West are always up for “Talk Like a [Fill in Your Silly Idea Here]” Day.

Suggestions from the official Talk Like Shakespeare site include:

Instead of you or y’all, say thou.

When in doubt, add the letters “eth” to the end of verbs (he runneth, he trippeth, he falleth).

Verse for lovers, prose for ruffians, songs for clowns.

Or just try iambic pentameter.
