Judge Joe Brown Destroys the New World Order - FULL SHOW 6/8/21
Southern Drawl, Elizabethan English Origins
In a linguistic aside, Judge Joe Brown explains that the Southern drawl is actually a "fossilized edition" of Elizabethan English from the time of Shakespeare. He demonstrates this by reciting a passage from Hamlet in a Southern accent, arguing that the dialect makes the original text more understandable and contemporaneous to the period in which it was written.
