Do I need to use flowery speech with lots of “thous” and “forsooth” and stuff like that when I talk to SCA people?
The flowery “forsooth speech” that most people associate with chivalric behavior is a matter of choice. At most practices and meetings, people will converse as they normally would. Sometimes at events, particularly in matters of public speaking, a way with words and the ability to turn a courtly phrase is helpful, but by no means required. If it comes naturally to you and you like it, use it. If not, don’t worry about it too much.
