'Thy' means 'Your'.
Specifically the singular version of your. You used to be plural version only.
*Thou then
That would make it "Take 'you' money".
Thine.
Meine
And? It still works.
It makes sense, but doesn't follow the format of the meme, which uses "my" (as you, no doubt, already knew).
Silence thyself and take mine wealth?
(Can't use taketh, it's like takes, not take)
“Mine” before a vowel, “my” before a consonant.
Oh! That's why it seemed off. Okay, "take mine earnings" would be okay then?
~~"Earnings" is a consonant and "earn" would be the vowel.~~ Sorry my Bad!
Something tells me you got consonants and vowels mixed up with nouns and verbs. E is always a vowel lol
Hah true! Better not comment before I've had my morning coffee lol
Lmao all good, it gave me a laugh and we all make mistakes XD
But never mine within a bowel.
Or do... We don't kink shame here...
As long as you're wearing a helmet and have a canary, I guess 🤷
Perfect! Time to go body spelunking!
Stint thy clappe und tac thy coyne!
Now, see, we're still running into the same problem here
Whassat?
Love "Stint thy clapped" but the 2nd "thy" puts us back where we started where we started. And "und" and sounds a bit too Germanic to me...
"shut up and take your money" is not the meme
The meme is Monty Python's version of King Arthur. I totally believe they would switch it around for the joke. It might not be grammatically the same, but it's thematically correct.
