How does antinous answer telemachus's charges?

Antinous is a character in Odyssey, where he was a suitor for Penelope. Telemachus was Penelope's son. The charges were that he overstayed in Penelope's house, and his answer was that Penelope has caused that by her trick of weaving a funeral material longer than necessary. ( she said that she will only choose a new husband when she's done, and they would stay in the house until then).

The three steps before modern english were indo-european, germanic, and old english. as peoples moved around the eurasian continent, their languages changed. throughout the ages, the languages became more specialized. as english has many germanic influences, it is easy to see how this was one of the forebears. also, old english was one of the main ancestors of the modern language, spoken in the 5th through about the 13th centuries.
