HAS ANYONE READ THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH?
SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS AS TO HOW YOU COME TO UNDERSTAND, INTERPRET AND APPLY MEANING TO SHAKESPEARE’S WORDS.
Can you be more specific? This is really broad.

In most books that have the play in there is a key at the side which will tell you what the words mean. If not you just have to wok it out, some are similar to the english variations.

YES I HAVE READ MACBETH!
But it was a while ago, so I will say this: try cliffsnotes.com or sparknotes.com.
I forgot much, so this is all I can do to help.

Download ANY version of the movie. Once you know the overall concept and thru line, and have seen the action,understanding the dialogue will be easier. Don’t let the "haths" and "hences" discourage you.

Hello;
It is a sad fact that Shakespeare is very hard to read … our version of English is a little different than his.
My advice is to try to read it — look at the cliff notes if you wish, but the best way to understand any Shakespeare play is to see it performed.
Check out this very cool Jeremy Brett production:

Orson Wells’ rendition is also very good.

Hope that helps,
Bill
P. S. This is not my favourite of the Bard’s plays — he wrote better stuff!
