No that was actually one of the clues to the plot. It was a group of modern people trying to sound like an old dialect. This is why the accents and phrases were sometimes odd and inconsistent. I remember saying early on that the accents were terrible. Then I began to wonder if it was on purpose. I liked the movie.

If you put yourself into the shoes of the villagers there was absolutely no good reason to intentionally twist your English from something like "eat your porridge" to "your porridge eat you shall".
It was not a provided clue. I get that the villagers might have wanted to change their clothing to a simpler, less ornate, less modern style. But that doesn't work for language. If you're going to have a twist at least make it an honest one, like in The Sixth Sense.
