Good effort :) On a side note, you're reading Middle English, not Old English. Kind of scary if your prof didn't point that out to you and focused on Chaucer in a course on Old English.
Regardless, that's a decent effort you've made with the Miller's Prologue. Well done.
actually, the description of the video says Old English. i was well instructed, hence the decent 10 year old memory that i really didn't polish up (plus you notice the bottle of gin).
Yep, I noticed that the description says "Old English," my point is that you're actually reading Middle English. Two very distinguishable languages to a Mediaevalist/Anglo-Saxonist. So much for my attempt at a compliment for you :)
Gin or no gin, your pronunciation is really good though.
Holy cack yea I did mess up Chaucer is a catalyst of Middle English & Shakes a step into Modern. I wasn't taught wrong, I just drank & smoked too much of my memory away, thanks for pointing that out.
for a rough take that was pretty damn good
