Ræde þa gehæmendan larboc!
Thanks to Pascale for pointing me to this lovely wordhord for the Anglo-Saxon geek. Made my day.
My Old English is purely secondhand (reading over my husband’s shoulder while he took it, many years ago), but this does look to be the straight-up deal. Take leohtspecca for “pixel.” Light-speck. Makes sense. And “feorransprecagewrit,” far-speak-written, for fax.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some weagebetung to do with my gifgaderung.
