This translator attempts to recreate the language of the Anglo-Saxons, who inhabited Britain from the 5th to the 11th centuries. The language, while different in vocabulary and grammar, was a Germanic language. Its poetic nature and directness differ from modern English. This tool focuses on providing a good representation of this linguistic style, using a variety of archaic vocabulary common to the era, attempting to retain the original meaning whenever possible. The user should familiarize themselves with the basics of Anglo-Saxon grammar and vocabulary, as the tool only offers translation in English. It does not produce a verbatim transliteration from Classical Old English.
