It was only a matter of time before we got around to CHUNKing and WHUMPing.

Historical note: The thou/you division can get confusing; the "th" words are actually the informal, casual versions. French retains this with "tu" vs. "vous", but the distinction is a bit hard to grasp for most English-speakers.
Roughly:
You (subject singular) = Thou
You (object OR plural) = Thee
Your = Thy
Yours = Thine (can also be used ahead of a word starting with H or a vowel)
Also, "ye" does not equal "the". That is caused by confusing the Old English letter Þ (thorn) with a letter Y, which looks similar in some typefaces.
I am pleased to note that this page seems to be largely correct on that front. Most writers wouldn't even bother to make an effort.
