Old English, sometimes known as Anglo Saxon, is a precursor of the Modern English language.
It was spoken between the 5th and 12th century in areas of what is now England and Southern Scotland.
Words can be entered directly including æ þ ð characters EG ofþryccaþ. Alternatively .ae (dot ae) will be substituted with æ, .th with þ, and .dh with ð. So ofþryccaþ could be written of.thrycca.th.
