[–] ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 child) Is it literally just the letter a? permalink fedilink source hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] alapakala [S] 1 point 2 months ago Correct. I was researching if Middle English Speakers had accusatives & possessives transformations for “a,” but I couldn't find any of the available papers alive if they had any transformations whatsoever. I am trying to see if we can make our own, or stick to David Lindsay’s ae/aer (1920), or Francis Augustus Brewster’s e/em/es (1841). “Ou” doesn't fit right with modern “We/us/our” permalink fedilink source parent
