📚 I really recommend this edition of Macbeth for you to use when studying: https://amzn.to/3UadwnE
It prints on an A4 page with extra wide margins, so there is loads of space for you to make your annotations. Plus, the glossary is embedded into the text so it is really easy to see the translations of the more challenging words. The link is also an affiliate link, so you'll be helping to support my channel - thank you! 👏
