Synopsis
Excerpt from A Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary: For the Use of Students
The above rule is, however, subject to one condition, namely, that the spelling given should actually occur, and should not be merely an assumed form. Hence if a word does not occur in the characteristic Early West Saxon form, I have taken the Late West Saxon, and if this again is not found, I have fallen back on a dialectic form.

A Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary: For the Use of Students (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive dictionary of Old English, a language spoken in England from roughly the 5th to the 12th centuries. The author meticulously compiled this work by analyzing numerous glossaries to Anglo-Saxon textbooks, readers, and other materials. The authorââ â¢s process went beyond simply collecting existing information, however. They added a significant amount of original material, including a manuscript concordance to Alfredian texts and a thorough exploration of words not found in existing dictionaries. The authorââ â¢s dedication to exhaustiveness is evident in their attention to spelling variations, and the book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the complexities of Old English phonology, a field that deals with the sounds of a language. The bookââ â¢s arrangement is strictly alphabetical, a feature that sets it apart from other Anglo-Saxon dictionaries of the time, making it a convenient tool for students and scholars alike. This book serves as a testament to the authorââ â¢s commitment to creating a comprehensive and user-friendly guide to the Old English language, a language that forms the basis of modern English and offers insights into the history and culture of the Anglo-Saxon people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259749004_0
