-‘ Obscene’, ‘gloomy’, ‘fashionable’ & ‘generous’ are among the countless new words that Shakespeare introduced. (Actually, ‘countless’ is one of his too.) It’s also because of the Bard that we say ‘catch a cold’, ‘naked truth’ & ‘green-eyed monster’.
-Macbeth never says, ‘ Lead on, Macduff!’ What he actually says is, ‘ Lay on, Macduff’, meaning ‘ Come on, Macduff, let’s get this fight started.’
