Book Reviews of A Guide to Old English, Sixth Edition
Book Review: this book will turn you into a genius
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is for students and historians alike. It has so many good qualities........ This book's glossary is fantastic. In Old English, as you're going through those texts, you'll come across the really odd, wierd, twisted subjunctives and past forms that (to be honest) only Old English could have. This book not only has these forms in the glossary, but it tells you what part of speech their in, and what the infinitive is. Translating takes half the time. Stress goes out of the window! This really helps you remember the irregular forms. The Glossary also refers back into the book. Here sections are v. clearly marked, and the grammar is clearly explained. Even if you're not into translating, it's a great historical reference book!
