THOU, THEE, THY, THINE. SAME THING RIGHT?

NO.

Although they seem very similar, Shakespeare would be in tears if he saw how most people mix them up. lets save William the misery and teach you when to correctly use thou, thy, and thine.

THOU

Thou = You (in subject form)

"Thou art killing me." "Art Thou crying?"

THEE

Thee = You (in object form)

"I want to kill thee." "My dog ate thee in my dream."

THY

Thy = Your (before a word that starts with a consonant)

"Thy mother." "Give me thy duck."

Thyself is used the same as any other thy+word combination like "thy mother" but without a space

"Take care of thyself."

THINE

Thine = Your (before a word that starts with a vowel)

"Thou art on thine own." "Thine answer hath satisfied mine query."

OR

Thine = Yours

“This is thine.” “The throne is thine, should thou choose to take it.”

(last 2 examples by @bookishwenchmeltha)

Now Shakespeare can truly rest in peace.

Feelings

How do you describe that feeling,

when you cry and cry,

but you also feel joy when ur crying,

and when you feel that joy,

you remember you believed in unicorns and fairies when you were younger,

but now everythings changed.

And you have to braid ur own hair,

make ur own food

and cry by yourself.

Pledging

Wouldst thou callst me thine

My heart thy pleadings yearns to hear

In moments fleeting ever divine

I wish thou closer, bide thou here

The moment nearer draws

As two now one becoming

Breathing, living pause

To witness vows forthcoming

Jesus Christ dude, it started very simple but now it's rocket science

NO ONE knows how to use thou/thee/thy/thine and i need to see that change if ur going to keep making “talking like a medieval peasant” jokes. /lh

They play the same roles as I/me/my/mine. In modern english, we use “you” for both the subject and the direct object/object of preposition/etc, so it’s difficult to compare “thou” to “you”.

So the trick is this: if you are trying to turn something Olde, first turn every “you” into first-person and then replace it like so:

“I” →  “thou”

“Me” →  “thee”

“My” →  “thy”

“Mine” →  “thine”

Let’s suppose we had the sentences “You have a cow. He gave it to you. It is your cow. The cow is yours”.

We could first imagine it in the first person-

“I have a cow. He gave it to me. It is my cow. The cow is mine”.

And then replace it-

“Thou hast a cow. He gave it to thee. It is thy cow. The cow is thine.”

Pond for @muskroom !

[banafanax]

Every generation of English-speaking youth reinvents the informal tense we left behind in the Bible.

the gen z all lowercase minimal punctuation thing could easily be replaced with the true informal/intimate tense: Thee, Thou, Thy, and Thine. It's not too late for Gen Alpha, we can still mold them.

Thou should be the change that thou wouldst desire in the world.
