Subject: [norse_course] comparing ON to
OE
What, if any, similarities are there between Old Norse and Old English
grammatically speaking? I ask this because my University is offering an OE
class this semester and was wondering if taking it would help speed up my
learning of ON and vice versa.
Jed Mc Harg re- comparison of Old Norse/Old
English.
Much of the vocabulary is identical or similar as
are the conjugation of verbs. On the whole I found Old English easier to
understand, so hopefully you should find it easier to cope with than I did
with Old Norse.
Go for it and good luck!
Cheers
Jed
