+Ich+, _adj._ each, S, S2; see +Eche+.
+Ieden+, _pt. pl._ went, S; see +Eode+.
+Joutes.+ For _juta_ read _juta_. For other cognates of this wide-spread word, see Kluge (s.v. _jauche_). See also s.v. _kase_, where Kluge remarks that Icel. _ostr_, cheese, and Finnish _juusto_, cheese, are etymologically connected with G. _jauche_, and Latin _jus_.
+Kepen.+ AS. _cepan_, to keep, should be kept quite distinct from AS.
_cpan_, to sell. AS. _cpan_ is the phonetic representative of OTeut.
_kaupjan_, whereas _cepan_, to keep, represents an OTeut. *_kopjan_. Cp.
E. _keen_, the representative of AS. _cene_, OTeut. *_koni_ (G. _kuhn_).
See Kluge's note in P. & B. Beitrage, viii. 538.
+Mo.+ Add ) at the end.
+Note+, _sb._ nut. A better explanation of _not-heed_ is 'with the hair of the head closely cut.' The verb to _nott_ means to cut the hair close. '_Tondre_, to sheer, clip, cut, powle, _nott_'; Cotgrave.
+Onond+, _prep._ as regards, respecting, S; +onont+, S; see +An-ent+.
+Quene.+ It should be noted that E. _queen_ is not precisely the same word as E. _quean_. For _queen_ is the phonetic equivalent of AS.
_cwen_, Goth. _kwens_, whereas _quean_ represents AS. _cwene_, Goth.
_kwino_.
+Senged+, _pp._ sun-burnt, S3 (p. 364, l. 29); see +Sengin+.
+Sisour+, _sb._ juror, PP; +sysour+, P; see +Asisour+.
+Stok.+ Prof. Napier maintains that the +stokess+ of the Ormulum cannot be identified with AS. _stocc_, as the gemination of the consonant persists in the Ormulum. He suggests that +stokess+ means 'places,'
comparing the use of _stoke_ in place-names, e.g. _Wude stoke_ in Chron.
(Earle, p. 249), He also cites in ill.u.s.tration AS. _stoc-weard_, 'oppida.n.u.s,' see Leo, p. 206.
+Sum+ (1). _Dele_ '+sumere+, dat., S;'
+Twichand+, _pres. pt._ touching, regarding, S3 (13. 271).
+Tyred+, _pp._ attired, dressed, S2; see +Atyren+.
+Ure+ (written +Vre+), _sb._ earth, S2; see +Erthe+.
+Whicche+, a chest, trunk, box; +whucche+, PP; +whyche+, Prompt.; +hoche+, Prompt.--AS. _hwicce_; 'Cl.u.s.tella, _hwicce_;' Engl. Studien, xi. 65.
+Wike+, _sb. pl._ the corners of the mouth, S (4 a. 49).--Cf. Icel.
_munnvik_, pl., the corners of the mouth; see CV (s.v. _munnr_). The word _wikes_ is still in use in this sense at Whitby. See Whitby Glossary (E.D.S.).
+Wone+, _adj._ one, S3 (7. 97); see +Oon+.
+Wyne-grapis+, _sb. pl._ vine-grapes, S3 (13. 99).
ERRORS AND INCONSISTENCIES
Misprinted words or letters are extremely rare. Significant errors were noted at the point of occurrence.
Variations in source and language abbreviations such as "O.H.G." for "OHG." have been regularized to the forms given in the Authorities and Language lists. Errors in Greek accents were silently corrected. A few minor variations were retained, including:
"hedgehog" and "hedghog"
(_n_) or (_n._) _pt. pr._ or _pt.-pr._
The word "invisible" means that there is an appropriately sized blank s.p.a.ce in the printed text.

More serious errors, such as references to words that could not be found in the Dictionary, are explained in separate paragraphs.
