Anglo-Saxon grammar[edit]

Anglo-Saxon was an inflected language, it was not reliant on word order to indicate subject-object relationships. Here I have had to use 'th' for the letter 'thorn: Se cyning ofsloh thone biscop has exactly the same meaning as Thone biscop ofsloh se cyning - both mean "the king slew the bishop". Thone indicates the object, while se indicates the subject, of the sentence.

In the particular case of Westseaxna rice, then the ending '-na' is a contracted version of the weak plural genitive ending '-ena'. Thus Westseaxna rice means "[the] kingdom belonging to [the] West Saxons", or in usable Modern English, "The Kingdom of the West Saxons". Urselius (talk) 14:11, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
