The main tool which I used for my analysis is the Middle English dictionary online, which is an extensive electronic database comprising all preserved ME texts. For the Old English period, we have taken Roberts and Kay's A thesaurus of Old English as a starting point and for the Middle English period we have based our research on the data provided by the ongoing Historical thesaurus of English (1) from the University of Glasgow and the online version of the Middle English dictionary (hereafter, MED). The material for the present study comes from the Oxford English dictionary (OED) supplemented by the Middle English dictionary (MED) as well as Wright's Dictionary of English dialects, Orton's Survey of English dialects (SED), McIntosh's A linguistic atlas of Late Medieval English (LALME), as well as Bjorkman (1900-1902), Rynell (1948), or more recent Hug (1987), Townend (2002) and Dance (2003). |
