The word Geteld is is pronounced in the same way as Gesi=F0a in as =
much as the
"Ge" sounds like "Yee" -Yeeteld.
I'm now aware that the "ld" is treated any diferently however I must =
stress
I'm no authority on Old English.
I'll most likely be going to an introductoryy course in the Fall =
which
starts off with 6 weeks of Old English then progresses to Early =
Middle, then
Middle E. to Modern E. then winds up back to Old English.
I'm fortunate that the husband of one of our new members in Canada =
of The
English Companions heads up the Department of Linguisticts at Trent
University, Ontario and has advised me that this would be a good
introduction course to take for myself as I speak no othe languages, =
before
I enter a course which comprises 100% O.E.
On a personal note I think I am a sort of shell in as much as I can =
wear the
finest Anglo-Clothing and display the demeanor but without speaking =
at least
some of the language a very critical component is missing. I think =
that
appplies to any society or persona we are trying to portay.
I'm trying to encourage the members of a nearby SCA group who will =
be
participating in an Anglo-Saxon village event to at least speak some =
easy to
learn one-liners associated to their trade or status. Even if thay =
say to
the public "good morning" or "good afternnoon, my name is ..." - =
"Good
mergen, min nama is ...." "Good afen, min nama is ........"
Out of curiosity, how many of us can speak some Old Norse or Old =
Engilsh ?
Cheers
Martin
