Getting the right word in your writing is essential for conveying the intended meaning to readers. Using the wrong word can completely change the tone and create confusion. One of the most common errors is misusing “beest” and “beast.” While they both refer to an animal, “beest” is an archaic second-person singular present tense form of the verb to be. It is often used in literary and poetic contexts.

“Beest” is not widely used in modern English and may come across as pretentious or outdated if used in casual conversation. In addition, it can be difficult to pronounce correctly. The spelling gives no clue as to the original pronunciation of the word, and sound changes in Middle-Early Modern English left little consistency in how the word was pronounced during that period.
Despite these difficulties, there are still some contexts in which it is appropriate to use “beest.” For example, the line from Shakespeare’s Hamlet that begins with “To be or not to be, that is the question” could be written as “Beest or not to be, that is the issue.” In literary and poetic texts, however, “beest” is often used to add a sense of antiquity and formality.
