 * ȝeƿrit - the most common word on ang.wikipedia that uses both "ȝ" and "ƿ"
 * Yogh is not a letter in Old English. Sometimes it is used to render  when pronounced as . At Wiktionary though we just use g (or ġ in piped links), so this should be at gewrit or geƿrit. It's a variant prefixed form of writ. Ƿidsiþ 09:59, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

 * or, compare
 * bremlum
 * I feel like this is just alternative form of the dative plural form of brēmle, but I read on another site that it means fire. Do you know where you read this? - Writend
 * it's in the Old English Heptateuch, Ælfric's translation of Genesis 22:13, "Ða beseah Abraham sona underbæc and geseah þær anne ramm betyx þam bremelum, be ðam hornum gehæft. And he ahefde þone ramm to þære offrung and hyne þær ofnsað, God to lace, for hys sunu Isaac" (click, ebook pg 47). here it certainly means brambles. it is in the form "bremlum" (rather than bremelum) on the University of Glasgow's site, click. i'm not sure if it's from another translation or if it's a simplified & normalized version of Ælfric for students.

 * Where did you find this? - Writend


 * ,, the latter mentioned for comparison at OE and German . Both are mentioned at Middle English . From the context both are presumably verbs. The BT has the following possibly relevant forms (evidently using a slightly different orthography) dípan; deópian; deópian; ge-deópian; dýpan; dýpan; dýpan; the DOE has forms for dēopian, ge-dēopian, dȳpan, but not (so far as I can find) dīepan. The form  also shows up at our reconstruction for Proto-Germanic *diupijaną, from context this is presumably a different word but in any case a strange (attestable?) orthography which should probably be checked.
