Thanks for giving those words. To be arly/honest, I’ve learned more FLaG words from this leaf than English ones 😂. I guess that’s a good token for the lay/state of English, though.
I find sunderly intryst in the word “meter”, which thou mentionest above. It was only a short while ago that I bemarked that “meter” in the sinn/sense of “metel”, “meteþor”, “meting rig” is a fully English word: “mete” + “-er”.
