I’d imagine they fake an American accent. Maybe Burbank, CA?
Why would they speak French or Italian? The Rennaisance happened in Britain too and they spoke ye olde English back then.
Word on the street is that American English is actually closer to the English spoken by the British when they first landed and colonized the Americas. After the war they went back to their lil island and forgot how to pronounce their Rs.
Americans parrot this point. Its not true but sounds like it could be, so it sticks.
Americans often also claim they invented Pizza
Wouldn’t they just speak renaissance English?
Middle or old english?
Old English is ~650-1066
Middle English is ~1066-1500
Early Modern English is ~1500-1650
Modern English is ~1650-now
Beowulf was somewhere between 700 and 1000, so that’s Old English.
Shakespeare lived from 1564 to 1616, so he used Early Modern English.
The King James Bible is from 1611 and it’s counted as Early Modern English.
And the Epic of Gilgamesh was written between 2100-1200 BC in Mesopotamia which is on a different continent than England (today it’s mostly Syria and Iraq).
