      you missed an important fact about Tostig and his heritage in english culture.
      He's the origin of a famous expression that every english speaker uses all the time , and the sadest thing is that he never knew how much consequential he had to be till novadays....
      "TOASTED" !!!

    History has treated me harshly. I am unfairly remembered as the troublesome brother. Nothing I did was ever good enough for anyone. People looked favourably at my brother Harold! But looked down on me. And professing to be wise, Harold become a fool.

    • @Alonglongtimeago

      That's not entirely true, you are Queen Edith's favourite brother! And you're not even the most troublesome, that award must surely go to your other older brother, Swegn.
      That said, you maybe should have treated your people a bit better... and invading your own country to try and dethrone your brother certainly doesn't help your case.

      My plan is to eventually do a vid on every type of question, but I can bump that one up the list of question types for you! I may do the 12 mark explain question first though, as the 16 mark one is basically the 12 mark one but with a conclusion. :)

    What is the difference between the surnames
    Godwin and Godwinson?
    Or can you use either

    • @Alonglongtimeago
      @Alonglongtimeago  4 роки тому +1

      Godwin is actually not a surname. Most people in Saxon England only had one name so Earl Godwin's full name is just Godwin. However, he married a Dane and used the Danish naming tradition to name his children, which was to have a surname that indicates who the father is 'Godwin son', hence his children all have surnames but he is just 'Godwin'. Hope that helps! :)

    Is there a reason why you pronounce his name 'Tosty' and not how it is written? Not trying to sass you but I'm just curious if I'm saying it wrong.

    • @Alonglongtimeago
      @Alonglongtimeago  3 роки тому

      Because the letter 'g' in old English is often (inc in this case) pronounced in the same way a 'y' would be pronounced in modern English :)

  • @michaelwhite8031
    @michaelwhite8031 3 роки тому

    I don't think Tostig found it hard to understand the Northumbrians as he was Anglo/Danish through his mother. It was probably because he treated them harshly.

    • @Alonglongtimeago
      @Alonglongtimeago  3 роки тому

      ?? being Anglo/Danish is different to being raised in Northumbrian culture - as with everything in history, it's a combination of factors, how much responsibility you place with each factor is up for debate though

    • @michaelwhite8031
      @michaelwhite8031 3 роки тому

      @@Alonglongtimeago l think it was probably the fact that they wanted to chose their own Earl. The north turned out to be totally traitorous to the South in the end, by not supporting Harold's cause after he had defended them at Stamford Bridge. The fact that they thought they could deal with William backfired and they eventually got their just rewards.

    My name is Tostig! Not Tosty! Say my name properly please!

    • @Alonglongtimeago
      @Alonglongtimeago  4 роки тому +1

      I hate to break it to you but 'Tosty' is the correct pronunciation. In certain contexts in Old English a letter 'g' would be pronounced like how we would pronounce the letter 'y', such as when a word (e.g. 'Tostig') ends in 'ig'. Another example would be when a word begins with 'ge' (e.g. Geld). Sometimes when people are writing Old English using the modern English alphabet this will be represented by having a dot above the 'g'.
      Also, if you bury into history books you will sometimes see 'Tostig' written in other, modernised spellings, such as 'Tosty' or 'Tosti', and in German it's often written as 'Toste'.
      Would have thought you'd know how to pronounce your own name :p

    • @joey1317
      @joey1317 4 роки тому

      A long, long time ago... And I hate to break it to you but most people in Northumbria were Danish and spoke a different language to the south and hence “Tostig” is not pronounced “Tosty” in Northumbria. As Earl, I ought to have you arrested and thrown in jail lest I become a spectacle to the world!
      You are just like my usurper brother!
      Tostig Godwinson
      Earl of Northumbria
      Rightful king of England.

    • @Alonglongtimeago
      @Alonglongtimeago  4 роки тому +1

      @@joey1317 I hate to break it to you, but even though you are Earl of Northumbria, you're not *from* Northumbria. Just like your bro Harry, and all your other numerous siblings, and also your father, Godwin, you're a southerner, raised in Wessex, where your family's power base is. Therefore, when naming you, your parents would have named you to fit with pronunciation in the south, so your name is still pronounced 'Tosty'.
      The fact you don't even know your own history is just another example of why Harold is that far more fit to run the country than you!! :P
