It generates a link to the Dictionnaire du moyen français, which is maintained by the University of Lorraine and the Centre national de la recherche scientifique. It takes the following parameters, none of which are mandatory:


 * 1 the page to be linked to. The default is.
 * alt an alternative display title visible to the reader other than the one that is being linked to. Useful for entries that use the modern French title in their URL instead of the Middle French (e.g. uses the title ). Default is 1 or if that is not specified.
 * num the entry number, superscripted and after the display word to match the dictionary's own format
 * ref to work around a bug in the syntax, when used inside this syntax, specify.


 * It may occasionally be used in Old French entries as our cutoff date is 1340 (About Old French) and the Dictionnaire du moyen français has a cutoff date of 1330.
