If this exchange took place in 1350 AD, the English language would have been in its Middle English phase. The phrasing would be quite different from modern English. Here's a possible rendition of that dialogue:

Character 1: "Art thou afeerd, Ser?" Character 2: "Worse. Ich am racionel."

Middle English had a variety of dialects and spellings were not standardized, so there could be some variation in how it was written or spoken. However, this gives a sense of how the conversation might have sounded during that period.

Tue 9 Jul 01:17:39 CEST 2024 - there's an exchange regarding the strategy of battle in House of the Dragon, and one character asks, "Are you afraid, Ser?" and the other responds, "Worse. I'm rational." if this exchange happened in 1350 AD, how would it most likely have been phrased in the English of the time?
