So, in Romeo and Juliet's Act 1 Scene 1 there's a line Sampson says early on "I mean, if we be in choler, we’ll draw", except that "if" bit appears as "an" in the Folger, Pelican, Norton, and Oxford editions and as "and" in Riverside. It only appears as "if" in the RSC. Not sure about Arden. Fucking autist that I am this bothered me so I decided to do some research and I found out that all the early Folios (F1, F2, F3, F4) and the two first Quartos use "if" while the last Quartos use "and", My question is... if none of the early printings used it then where does this "an" bullshit come from?? Why's this the choice for most of the current versions? Is it an actual English word or is it a misprint of some sort?

German is superior to French. Prove me wrong.
