A Concise Dictionary of Middle English From A.D. 1150 to 1580 A. L. (Anthony Lawson) Mayhew In the etymological part three stops are used as symbols in connexion with the cog nate forms cited, namely the comma, the semi-colon, and the colon. The comma is used to connect various spellings of a word, as well as parallel forms cited from nearly connected languages; for instance, s.v. Daunger, the of. Forms are 50 connected. The semi-colon between two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and that the preceding one is directly derived from, and is historically connected with the one following this symbol for instance, s.v. Bugle, the of. Bugle is the phonetic equivalent of the Lat. 6uculum, and is immediately derived therefrom. The colon be tween two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and that the form following this symbol is an earlier, more primitive form than the one preceding, without an immediate interborrowing between the languages being asserted; for in stance, s.v. Demen, the Goth. Do'nzjan is an older form than the as. A'e'man, but déman is not borrowed from the Gothic. The abbreviation cp.' introduces other cognate forms, and has the same value as the symbol in Skeat's Dictionaries. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
