FULLEST FAITHFUL TO EARLY ANGLIAN
Vowels (from any language unless specified; English is early Anglian (Epinal Glossary, but without
smoothing; also æCC before back vowels usually becomes retracted to aCC, except where *j or *i
originally followed the CC, or if æ < ǣ; Northumbrian retraction of earC to arC is frequent, with its
subsequent umlaut ærC; also sometimes æht is replaced by aht due to the influence of related verbs; ON
æ, œ, ø develop the same as Anglian ǣ, œ̄ , œ)
C = consonant(s); CC = two or more consonants; ̆ = shortened long vowel (before geminates); V = vowel;
N = northern Anglian dialects (including Scandinavian loans therein); ON = Old Norse; OF = Old
French; MDu = Middle Dutch; MLG = Middle Low German; Lat = Latin; Gk = Greek

Geminate consonants are retained, except after unstressed vowels, where they are simplified. 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.

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.

Verbs
Note that the present subjunctive functions as the subjunctive in Greek (including reporting indirect
speech in present time); it can also express in main clauses, with or without inversion of pronoun and verb, a
possibility; in addition to expressing a subjunctive clause in past time or indirect speech in past time, the past
subjunctive also expresses, after yev (which can be omitted, especially if the past subjunctive form is clearly
distinct from the past indicative form) or by inversion of pronoun and verb, something hypothetical or unreal
(“Irreales”). (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).
