[Old Timey Language Liberrian 20:30:51]: Librarian ‘(Censored)’ has joined the session.
[OTLL 20:30:58]: Hi, I’m (Censored), a OTLL helping to answer questions for your library. How can I help you?
[OTLL 20:31:30]: did you have a question?
[Travish 20:31:43]: i hear that alot but i dont know what it means?
[OTLL 20:32:02]: ok, let me find some information about that saying for you
[Travish 20:32:17]: Thanks!
[OTLL 20:35:01]: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/hear_ye
[Travish 20:36:18]: so it means listen to me? that would explain why mr matthews says it
[OTLL 20:36:40]: it is used now at the beginning of court procedures, or in French Oyez, Oyez
[OTLL 20:37:33]: but in medieval times it would have been the first thing a town crier said before reading a document announcing something for the King
[OTLL 20:37:38]: does that help?
[Travish 20:37:58]: so the french version of mr matthews says oyez oyez?
[OTLL 20:38:07]: O dpm
[Travish 20:38:14]: oh i did NOT see your last part!
[OTLL 20:38:20]: sorry, I’m not familiar with Mr. Matthews
[Travish 20:38:38]: so if mr matthews is making an announcement for the principal then it would make perfect sense!
[Travish 20:38:47]: mr matthews is my teacher and a idiot
