Germanic (Anglian, Old Norse, Middle Dutch, Middle Low German), Latin, and Greek geminates are all retained. OF consonants usually become single, with the exception of rr which stays geminated. 5 Initial f, þ/ð, s, h remain voiceless, medial f, þ/ð, s, g become voiced between voiced sounds and remain or become voiceless next to voiceless sounds, and final f, þ/ð, s, h/g remain or become voiceless. Ff, þþ/ðð, ss, hh all remain voiceless, as does sċ. 1 Often when final are depalatalized (the usual phonetic law), often alongside variants that retain final palatalization (from inflected forms). Also related words might influence whether palatalized or not. Unstressed Vowels (classical Old English) Unstressed a is retained everywhere as ə [ə]. Unstressed final u is lost, except where u represents vocalized w, which becomes -u [u] (inflected -w- [w]), and where it corresponds to the īn-declension in other languages, in which case it becomes ə. Unstressed e (< i), o (< u), and u before final l, r, m, n were lost (except in grammatical syllables) since they were regularly lost in this position when inflected, unless they were originally in a long syllable (whether the vowel or the consonant was long), or the resulting consonant sequence was unpronounceable, in which case they become ə; Final e becomes ə. Any e from earlier æ also becomes ə. Otherwise i and u are retained as i and u in the endings -ic, -iht, -ing, -isc, -lic, -sum, -uc, -ung. The ending -iġ becomes -i [i], before vowels -y- [j]. Unstressed e in -ness, -scepe (later -scipe) remains as such; otherwise halfstressed suffixes and prefixes preserve full vowels like those of stressed syllables. Unstressed -i- before vowels in class II weak verbs becomes i + vowel, pronounced [i] usually (rather than [j]), except where the syllabification prefers [j] (such as after an unstressed syllable). Final ġ after a consonant becomes -i [i] (inflected -y- [j]). Old Norse unstressed vowels (a, i, u) are preserved everywhere as ə. Old French unstressed e is retained as ə before single consonants and finally, and as e before two or more consonants including geminates (> single consonants in unstressed position). All other Old French unstressed vowels are retained as full vowels. Middle Dutch and Middle Low German unstressed e is retained as ə. Latin and Greek unstressed vowels are usually (but not invariably) preserved as full vowels. Occasionally they may be reduced to ə, usually depending on the age of the loanword.

(Note that the conditional is expressed by mündə, mündən plus infinitive, and future in past by mundə, mundən plus infinitive.) The imperative of maʒən serves to indicate precative statements. The infinitive endings are -ən (-n), -iən (-yən); -ənə (-nə) and -iənə (-yənə) are the (indeclinable) gerunds (i.e. verbal nouns, often appearing after prepositions, corresponding to English constructions such as ‘by saying..’, ‘in revealing...’ as well as the form used after til ‘for (to), in order to’, but also used after on to form a quasi-progressive ‘in the process of...’). The present participle is -əndə (< *-ende < *-andjaz). 26 1. Strong Verbs Indicative Subjunctive Imperative Present Sg 1. 2. 3.
