THEME THURSDAY: WORDS FROM SHAKESPEARE (RANT)

Hello, readers!

For April we are looking at words from Shakespeare for our Theme Thursday posts. Today we are looking at the verb RANT. 

Definition: to speak or shout in an angry, impassioned way. 

Example 1: The celebrity ranted on Twitter. I think he was drunk. 

Example 2: The politician ranted about her opponent during her speech. 

We also use it often in the expression TO GO ON A RANT. 

Example 3: Before you go on a rant, make sure you understand what happened here. 

Example 4: The customer went on a rant and it made the other customers really uncomfortable.

Shakespeare used this word in Hamlet with the line:

"I'll rant as well as thou." (Translation: "I'll rant as well as you do.")

That's all for today! I hope you have a great day!
