ye olde FYR Explanation: Ye Is Not, And Never Was, an English Word (MLP) By dasunt Tue Nov 12th, 2002 at 07:47:10 AM EST I had always thought that the word 'Ye' (pronounced as yee) was an actual word in the English language. Archaic, sure, but still a word. After all, what about 'Ye Olde Shoppe' that sprouts up at every renaissance fair or all the passages in the King James Bible? Without even thinking about it, I believed that 'Ye' was a word. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVERTISEMENT Sponsor: netw1z Yahoo!

ye olde Ye = The Explanation: This just means "The Old Computer Fair". It is an attempt at humor to say that the university has to sponsor all sorts of silly activities and cannot concentrate on their core responsibility. Too bad you graded too early. |
