Geoffrey Chaucer doth humbly request that thou celebrate an old, middle, ancient, archaic or dead language on the first day of April.
Ways that one can celebrate, according to Mr. Chaucer, include:
- Making a video or Vocaroo of yourself reading in the old language. Mr. Chaucer suggests singing. Rapping may not work well, though.
- Sending tweets with the hashtag #whanthataprilleday.
- Making baked goods with ancient words on it.
So this happened – and there was much rejoicing. via @LeVostreGC & @MargaretAtwood pic.twitter.com/l0VMhoUIWO
