ay be the normal practice at that time, not the poet s invention. For example: Goes the king? You look not well.frequent are the archaic verb forms with the -st ending, such as mistakest, canst, look'st, dost, etc.these features make his texts sound elevated and exotic for modern audience. Some people complain that they are difficult to understand, others suppose that unusual words and phrases add beauty to his verses, but they all agree that Shakespeare s writings are unforgettable masterpieces.
CONCLUSIONS
this work we tried to cover the more prominent features of Shakespeare s language. However, we shouldn t automatically apply these features to the English of the Elizabethan era in general. Shakespeare manipulated the language skillfully, and he boldly brought new elements to the vocabulary. His was innovative in his choice and use of words, but the grammar of his language mostly reflects the general patterns of contemporary usage.is impossible to overestimate Shakespeare s impact on poetry and literature. His writings live through the centuries. He improved blank verse and became an acknowledged standard in poetry. Many great writers of the ages that follow were influenced by Shakespeare. His influence on the Romantic poets, for example, was so strong that George Steiner called their poems pale variations on Shakespearean themes.Shakespeare helped to establish new grammar rules and to widen vocabulary of the early modern English. He also enriched the arsenal of stylistic means of the English language.
