The grammar of Old English differs considerably from Modern English, predominantly being much more inflected. As a Germanic language, Old English has a morphological system similar to that of the Proto-Germanic reconstruction, retaining many of the inflections thought to have been common in Proto-Indo-European and also including ...

6. The long vowels and diphthongs will in this book be designated by the macron ( ̄). Vowel length should in every case be associated by the student with each word learned: quantity alone sometimes distinguishes words meaning wholly different things: fōr, he went, for, for; gōd, good, god, God; mān, crime, man, man. Long vowels and diphthongs: ā a...
8. There is little difference between the values of Old English consonants and those of Modern English. The following distinctions, however, require notice: The digraph th is represented in Old English texts by ð and þ, no consistent distinction being made between them. In the works of Alfred, ð (capital, Ð) is the more common: ðās, those; ðæt, ...
11. The accent in Old English falls usually on the radical syllable, never on the inflectional ending: bríngan, to bring; stānas, stones; bérende, bearing; īdelnes, idleness; frḗonscipe, friendship. But in the case of compound nouns, adjectives, and adverbs the first member of the compound (unless it be ge- or be-) receives the stronger stress: h...
1 Taken separately, every syllable ending in a single consonant is long. It may be said, therefore, that all closed syllables are long; but in the natural flow of language, the single final consonant of a syllable so often blends with a following initial vowel, the syllable thus becoming open and short, that such syllables are not recognized as pr...
12. There are five cases in Old English: the nominative, the genitive, the dative, the accusative, and the instrumental.1 Each of them, except the nominative, may be governed by prepositions. When used without propositions, they have, in general, the following functions: The nominative, as in Modern English, is the case of the subject of a finit...
13. The gender of Old English nouns, unlike that of Modern English, depends partly on meaning and partly on form, or ending. Thus mūð, mouth, is masculine; tunge, tongue, feminine; ēage, eye, neuter. No very comprehensive rules, therefore, can be given; but the gender of every noun should be learned with its meaning. Gender will be indicated in t...

20. The order of words in Old English is more like that of Modern German than of Modern English. Yet it is only the Transposed order that the student will feel to be at all un-English; and the Transposed order, even before the period of the Norman Conquest, was fast yielding place to the Normal order. The three divisions of order are (1) Normal, (...

24. But more important than vowel shifting is the great law of Analogy, for Analogy shapes not only words but constructions.

By this law, minorities tend to pass over to the side of the majorities. “The greater mass of cases exerts an assimilative influ...

Recorded by Thomas M. Cable, Professor Emeritus of the University of Texas at Austin. Old English is the language of the Germanic inhabitants of England, dated from the time of their settlement in the 5th century to the end of the 11th century. It is also referred to as Anglo-Saxon, a name given in contrast with the Old Saxon of the inhabitants ...
In grammar, Old English is chiefly distinguished from later stages in the history of English by greater use of a larger set of inflections in verbs, nouns, adjectives, and pronouns, and also (connected with this) by a rather less fixed word order; it also preserves grammatical gender in nouns and adjectives.
