3. Practical task to be done in written form:
1. Write down the list of words that were first used in W. Shakespear’s works in the sense we use in now:
- hazel - O.E. hæsl, from P.Gmc. *khasalaz (cf. O.N. hasl, M.Du. hasel, Ger. hasel), from PIE *koslos (cf. L. corulus, O.Ir. coll "hazel"). Shakespeare ("Romeo and Juliet," 1592) was first to use it (in print) in the sense of "reddish-brown color of eyes" (in reference to the color of ripe hazel-nuts), when Mercutio accuses Benvolio of being testy with: “Thou wilt quarrell with a man for cracking Nuts, hauing no reason, but because thou hast hasell eyes."
2. Make up a list of idioms that were first used by W. Shakespear
3. Learn an abstract from an original text of Shakespear’s plays (7-10 lines)
