“They may have read Romeo and Juliet.”

My kid once came home & told me his high school English class was studying R & J,
The teacher had advised that the movie, starring Leo DiCaprio & Claire Danes, was “too hard” and had supplied instead a “textbook” in comic book form and written in “normal” language which was ghetto slang.
Mercutio was, IIRC, a homeboy.
I provided him with the Bard’s own version, along with a volume of Shakespeare’s plays written in novella/ form and in in modern, yet proper, English.

LOL. Even less likely.
There’d be no basis for comparison.
Literally.
