thou hashtag performance

What’s especially ironic is how it’s sometime used nowadays to intentionally sound overly formal; but originally, it would’ve been LESS formal than just using you! #thou #you #english #history #language #england #britain #pronoun #quaker #language #linguistics

#ትጾማለህን? #በቅዱስ #ዮሐንስ #አፈወርቅ ትጾማለህን? እንግዲያውስ በሥራህ አረጋግጥልኝ! በምን ዓይነት ሥራ ካልከኝ? *ደሃውን ካየህ እዘንለት (ቸርነትን አድርግለት)! *የተጣላኸውን ካየህ ታረቀው! *ጓደኛህ ክብርን ሲያገኝ ካየህ አትቅናበት! *መልከኛ ሴት ካየህ እለፋት! *አፍህ ብቻ ከምግብ አይከልከል፤ አይንህም፣ ጆሮህም፣ እግርህም፣ እጆችህም፣ ሁሉም የሰውነትህ ክፍሎች ይጹሙ። እጆችህ ከንጥቂያና ስግብግብነት (ንፉግነት) ይጹሙ። እግሮችህ የማይገቡ ትእይንቶችን ለመመልከት ከመንደርደር ይጹሙ። አይኖችህ ውብ መልኮች ላይ ያልተገቡ እይታዎችን መቼም መች ከማሳረፍ መከልከልን ይማሩ እና ቁንጅና ላይ ከመጠመድ ይጹሙ። ማየት ለዐይን ምግብ ስለሆነ ያልተገባ እና የተከለከለን እይታ ካደረግህ ጾምህን ያፈርሰዋል፣ የነፍስህንም ሙሉ ደህንነት ያነዋውጣል፤ ነገር ግን የተገባና ጥንቁቅ ከሆነ ጾምህን ያስጌጣታል። የተከለከለውን በዓይን እየነካህ ነገር ግን በጾም ምክንያት ከማያረክስ ምግብ መጾሙ ከንቱ ከሆኑ ነገሮች መካከል ይቆጠራል። ሥጋን አትበላም አይደል? ስለዚህ በዐይኖችህ አማካኝነት ፍትወትን አትመገብ። ጆሮም ይጹም። የጆሮ ጾም ክፉ ወሬን እና ሐሜትን አለመቀበልን ያካትታል። “ሐሰተኛ ወሬ አትቀበል” እንዲል። (ዘጸ. 23፥1) አፍም እንዲሁ ከመጥፎ እና ከጥላቻ ንግግሮች ይጹም። ከአዕዋፋትና አሳዎች ብንከለከል ነገር ግን ወንድማችንን ብንበላው ምን ይጠቅመናል? ክፉ ተናጋሪ የወንድሙን ሥጋ ይበላል የባልንጀራውንም ሰውነት ይነክሳልና። ምንጭ፦ St. John Chrysostom; The Homilies on the Statues to the People of Antioch, Homily lll: 11-12, NPNF Series 1 Volume 9, Page 359/503 ትርጉም፦ መ/ር እሱእንዳለ ሽመልስ #Dost #thou #fast? #St. #John #Chrysostom Dost thou fast? Give me proof of it by thy works! Is it said by what kind of works? If thou seest a poor man, take pity on him! If thou seest in enemy, be reconciled to him! If thou seest a friend gaining honour, envy him not! If thou seest an attractive woman, pass her by! For let not the mouth only fast, but also the eye, and the ear, and the feet, and the hands, and all the members of our bodies. Let the hands fast, by being pure from rapine and avarice. Let the feet fast, by ceasing from running to the unlawful spectacles. Let the eyes fast, being taught never to fix themselves rudely upon gorgeous countenances, or to busy themselves with strange beauties. For looking is the food of the eyes, but if this be such as is unlawful or forbidden, it mars the fast; and upsets the whole safety of the soul; but if it be lawful and safe, it adorns fasting. For it would be among things the most absurd to abstain from lawful food because of the fast, but with the eyes to touch even what is forbidden. Dost thou not eat flesh? Feed not upon lasciviousness by means of the eyes. Let the ear fast also. The fasting of the ear consists in refusing to receive evil speakings and calumnies. “Thou shalt not receive a false report,” it says. Let the mouth too fast from disgraceful speeches and railing. For what doth it profit if we abstain from birds and fishes; and yet bite and devour our brethren? The evil speaker eateth the flesh of his brother, and biteth the body of his neighbour.
