One of the interesting challenges for JAFF writers is the ever-evolving nature of the English language. All languages change over time, leaving modern French speakers trying to read Old French, like the Eulalia text:

Buona pulcella fut eulalia./ Bel auret corps bellezour anima/ Voldrent la veintre li deo Inimi.

almost as lost as your average English speaker would be at trying to read Beowulf:

Hwæt. We Gardena in geardagum,/ þeodcyninga, þrym gefrunon,/ hu ða æþelingas ellen fremedon.

Jane Auste...
