Ugh, PLEASE tell me we're not going to PURPOSEFULLY mess up Frog's 'old' (or w/e the right term) english

I just did a search for 'frog' in the script, and his first lines are even wrong:
Quote
[Frog]
   Lower thine guard and thou'rt allowing
   the enemy in.

   Thou'rt here to save the Queen?

   The lair is deep within.
   Will thee accompany me?


Again, thine can't go with gaurd.. and 'thee' is objective, not subjective, so the word would be 'thou'

Quote
Frog: I failed to protect
   Queen Leene.
   I hath disgraced thee.

Ugh, hath is for 3rd person.. guh

Quote
Frog: Crono, you hath potential
   to be a good swordsman!

Ugh, more discrepency.. he uses 'thee/thou' when they're not supposed to be used, then suddenly switches to 'you'GUH.. anyway, 'thou hast', not 'you hath

Quote
Frog: 'Tis thee, Crono!
   Thou art here to practice thy
   skill in swordplay?

This isn't TOO bad, since most people make the same mistake in modern english; should be 'tis thou', just as it should be 'it is I', not 'it is me'

Quote
Frog: What?!
   The King hast been injured?

hath.. not hast

Quote
Frog: 'Tis nary a thing I canst do...
   Please be on thy way.[./quote]
can, just can
and I'm not sure about that thy, it might be thine; thine sounds right, but you say 'a way', not 'an way', so it might be thy

Quote
Frog: You hath done well to find
   this locale.
   Th, the Hero Badge!

Frog: Thee hath returned?
   Th, the Hero Medal!

Frog: Aye...
   Then thou hast seen the lad.
   Yet there's nary a thing I canst do
   against Magus.

these were all bunched together.. so meh
Thou hast done well
Thou hast returned
nary a thing I can do

Quote
Frog: Nary a soul remains to
   mend'eth the Masamune.

Since when are infinitives considered to be 3rd person present singular? mend

Quote
Frog: 'Tis thee again.

Frog: I must ponder this turn of
   events.
   Remain'eth here the night.

Tis thou again, again (HAHAHAHA)
Remain'eth should just be remain.. if it were singular (like, you, one person, remain here!) it might be remainst, but I'm not sure.. BUT YOU NEVER PUT APOSTROPHES BETWEEN A WORD AND A SUFFIX


I think I'm done <_<

I would probably make a damn good Magus, but you'd need to change the script, as that's not something he would say.

I'd try out for Magus, not that other prince dude next to him.

That IS something he'd say...and he DID say it. =P  Again, it's in the game script.  That's not to say it won't be paraphrased when we get there though.

About Frog's speech, we will be correcting it.  But more importantly at the moment, this is more about the voices saying stuff with the right inflection, not whether they say hath or hast...at least, not yet. :)

Wow...I really need to play CT again then lol.
I don't recall him ever saying that, I always thought he was more concealed with the way he talks; not like a spectator.

Questions about frog's speech:

1) Why does he only talk like that after being transformed?

2) Why doesn't anybody else in 600AD talk like that?

Just for theatrical effect, I surmise. Should go in with the fact that Truce might actually be a town of 10000 NPCs, and we see like 10.

There is a theory that it is easier for Frog to speak like that due to his change of appearance, and also so that he wouldn't be recognized as Glenn upon his return to Guardia.

Isn't Melchoir gonna be hard to cast, especially in this forum?  Along with the other Gurus, he's gonna be someone older, with a deeper and more experienced voice.  I'm guessing no one here is capable of doing that.  I mean, no offense to anyone who's tried out for him, but I can't picture a 20 year-olds voice as Melchoir.

I'll probably end up being Magus if things continue to shape up how they are now...  I'll may also be Norstein Bekklar and maybe even Dalton, just 'cause I have no problem acting insane. :lol:

Oh wait a minute...acting insane?  Who said I was acting?! :shock:

I wasn't sure if he was being sarcastic or not, 'cause I didn't look at WHO said it first. :lol:  Just as I was about to click Reply, I saw that it was Dewey.  Figures. :roll:
