Old English and Its Closest Relatives

Addendum to previous post: don’t get the electronic version; someone did an especially terrible job of converting it from paper. Faults include:

• Some of the non-ASCII characters are represented as images. This means that they don’t scale with the rest of the text, leading to a bizarre appearance.
• Most of the tables are represented as images. Not only does this have the same scaling problem as above but worse, the ones that started out life as a full page aren’t very high resolution, making them quite hard to read.
• Some of those images are the wrong one.
• Some of the text is wrong, for instance there’s the occasional “p” for “þ”.
• The ancient texts are missing hyphens at intraword line breaks, which are nevertheless preserved from the paper version, presenting an additional challenge to would-be translators. If I wanted to puzzle out essentially typographical issues I’d have gone to the originals!

Most of this is, in principle, user-fixable but it’s a lot of work. I bought a second-hand paper copy.
