[Transcriber's Note: This text is intended for users whose text readers cannot use the real (Unicode, UTF8) version of the file. Some compromises have been made, mainly in the spelling of Old English. Where possible, macrons (long marks) are shown with circumflex accents: Long is split up as , while long y is approximated with . (The dictionary rarely uses acute accents, and never for Old English.) The oe ligature (rare) is shown in brackets as [oe]. Greek words and letters (also rare) have been transliterated and are shown between +marks+. 2

Unless otherwise noted, words are spelled and alphabetized as in the original. The letter is alphabetized as ae. The letter (eth) is alphabetized separately after t. The letters j and v are not used; medial k occurs only once. When two words are otherwise identical, the one containing a macron is usually given second. Crossreferences are shown as printed. When there is an error or ambiguity, corrections are given in [[double brackets]] at the end of the entry or as a separate paragraph. Where possible, these standard wordings were used: under ms The referenced word is either a secondary entry or a parenthesized alternative spelling in the form ms (). headword spelled ms Minor difference, generally an added or omitted macron or a predictable vowel variation such as for . form of ms The referenced word is an inflected form. A few very common patterns such as adverbs in lce listed under adjectives in lic are not individually noted. redirected to ms The crossreferenced form leads to further crossreferences.

A CONCISE ANGLOSAXON DICTIONARY FOR THE USE OF STUDENTS by JOHN R. CLARK HALL, M.A., Ph.D. Second Edition Revised And Enlarged New York: The Macmillan Company 1916
Cambridge: Printed by John Clay, M.A. at the University Press
PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION
The first edition of this dictionary having been exhausted, it has been extensively revised, and certain new features and alterations have been introduced into it. 1. The principle of arranging all words according to their actual spelling has been to a considerable extent abandoned. It was admittedly an unscientific one, and opened the door to a good many errors and inconsistencies. The head form in this edition may be either a normalised form or one which actually occurs. 2. Words beginning with ge have been distributed among the letters of the alphabet which follow that prefix, and the sign + has been employed instead of ge in order to make the break in alphabetical continuity as little apparent to the eye as possible. The sign has been used where a word occurs both with and without the prefix. 3. References to Cook's translation of Sievers' AngloSaxon Grammar , and to the Grammatical Introduction to Sweet's Reader have been taken out, as Wright's or Wyatt's Old English Grammar will have taken their place with most English students. 4. A new feature which, it is hoped, will prove widely useful, is the introduction of references to all, or nearly all, the headings in the New English Dictionary under which quotations from AngloSaxon texts are to be found. A vast mass of valuable information as to the etymology, meaning and occurrence of Old English words is contained in that Dictionary, but is to a very large extent overlooked because it is to be found under the head of words which are now obsolete, so that unless one happens to know what was the last form which they had in Middle English, one does not know how to get at it. This information will be made readily available by the references in the present work, which will form a practically complete index to the AngloSaxon material in the larger dictionary and will at the same time put the student on the track of interesting Middle English examples of the use of Old English words. Besides directing the reader (by means of quotation marks) to the heading in the New English Dictionary where the relevant matter may be found, an indication has been given of the texts from which quotations are made therein, when these do not exceed four or five[1]. [Footnote 1: As regards the letter W and some small parts of other letters which have not yet appeared in the NED, a reference has been given to its abridgement (The Concise Oxford Dictionary ).] 5. There have been many valuable contributions to AngloSaxon lexicography (by Napier, Swaen, Schltter, Frster, Wlfing and others) since the first edition of this Dictionary appeared, and these have been made use of, but (as before) unglossaried matter has not been systematically searched for words not hitherto recorded in AngloSaxon Dictionaries[2]. [Footnote 2: The part of the Supplement to 'BosworthToller' which has already appeared shows that Professor Toller is examining such matter with great care and thoroughness.] 6. The number of references to passages has been very largely increased. All words occurring only in poetical texts have been marked. If they occur more than once they bear the sign , if only once, a reference to the passage is generally given. If not they are marked . As regards prose texts, the rule has been only to give references to particular passages in the case of rare words,more especially +hapax legomena+. The references to AO, CP and which were given in the earlier edition have been retained, as a useful indication that the word occurs in Early West Saxon or Late West Saxon prose, as the case may be. 7. By various devices it has been found possible, while much increasing the amount of matter in the book, to add very slightly to the number of pages, and at the same time to reduce the number of columns on a page from three to two. Most of these devices are more or less mechanical, but one method of saving space may be mentioned. Certain compound words, descriptive of places, which, as far as I know, occur only in charters and 5
A Concise AngloSaxon Dictionary which may often be more correctly regarded as proper nouns, have not been separately inserted. Their meaning can however always be ascertained by referring to their components, and where the abbreviation Mdf is inserted the reader will understand that examples of words so compounded, or of the components, or of both, will be found in Birch's Cartularium Saxonicum, or in Earle's Land Charters, and that references to those examples are given in Middendorff's Altenglisches Flurnamenbuch. 8. In the List of Abbreviations, etc. at the commencement of the book, editions of texts which are furnished with a glossary have been specially indicated. J. R. C. H. January, 1916.
LIST OF SIGNS AND ABBREVIATIONS WITH THEIR EXPLANATION
Note 1. Where references are in italic type, quotations from the texts indicated will be found in the New English Dictionary, under the head of the English word which is distinguished in the article by quotation marks (see Preface). In references to special passages volumes have been marked off from pages by an inverted full stop, and lines or verses have been shown, where they follow other numerals, by small superior figures. Occasionally where lines have not been given, the mark has been inserted to show that the quotation is in the lower half of a page. Note 2. In the following list the number (1) after an edition of a text indicates that the edition is supplied with a complete referenced glossary or wordindex, (2) that it has a complete glossary, but without references and (3) that it has a partial glossary or wordindex. Note 3. Some of the abbreviations given below are used in combination. Examples: MtLR the Lindisfarne and Rushworth MSS of St Matthew; BJPs the Bosworth and the Junius Psalters; asf. accusative singular feminine. EK Early Kentish. ' ' Quotation marks are used to enclose the English words which should be looked up in the NED in order to find etymological information as to, and examples of the use of, the AngloSaxon words to which the articles in this Dictionary relate, see Note 1 above. If they enclose Latin words, they indicate the lemmata of AngloSaxon words in glosses or glossaries etc., or the Latin equivalent of such words in the Latin texts from which they are translated. The Latin is especially so given when the Ags. word seems to be merely a blindly mechanical and literal equivalent. * is prefixed or affixed to hypothetical forms. Normalised forms of Ags. words which actually exist are not usually so marked. See Note 1 above. + ge. indicates that the Ags. word to which it is prefixed is found both with and without the prefix ge. occurs in poetical texts only. occurs in a poetical text, and once only. This sign is used to indicate that the words which it follows, and its compounds, are to be found in the Dictionary under the heading given after it, thus meht==miht is equivalent to meht miht and meht miht. a. accusative.

The most common change was adding or removing a macron in crossreferences: Printed text ms (K) ms, v. mus. Crossreferenced entry ms f. gs. ms, mse, nap. ms 'mouse,' ... Since both headwords have a long vowel, the crossreference was changed to match. All apparent errors, whether corrected or not, are listed below in [[double brackets]]. The author's corrections and additions are not repeated unless there is an error in the correction itself. Most errors are trivial, such as missing or incorrect punctuation or misplaced italics. The word invisible in corrections means that there is an appropriately sized blank space in the printed text. Punctuation at the end of entries was silently regularized, and missing or invisible periods (full stops) after standard abbreviations such as m. or pl. were silently supplied. Other errors in punctuation or typography are listed separately, after the more substantive errors. In references to the OED (New English Dictionary"), hyphenization does not always correspond to the OED form. These inconsistencies were left as printed; words split at lineend were not generally checked against their OED form.
