Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

The Dictionary of the Older Scottish Tongue defines and illustrates every meaning of every word used in written English in Scotland up to 1700, when the Scots language merges with standard English. It touches every facet of medieval and renaissance Scottish life and society, supplying a wealth of illustration in the form of quotations accompanying every word and meaning it discusses. It is an indispensable reference tool for historians of Scots language, literature, politics, law, medicine, agriculture, and all other aspects of Scottish society. This 'Scots OED' is published in yearly paperbound parts (fascicles). Every 4-5 years, recent fascicles are published also in a clothbound volume. Part 44 takes the dictionary up to S(c)hot, and A - S(c)hake is available in either fascicles or bound volumes from OUP.
