Question
I am seeking an old English -modern English dictionary (original).  I am a collector of antique books years 1500-1800 and can read old-English fluently except some words. I have been searching on the UK eBay for over 3 years and have not found one.  I bought one paperback but it is very limited. Can you recommend where I can find a robust one?

Answer
Hello,

Sorry, but I am afraid I cannot help you.

In fact I'm an expert in Ancient Greek and Latin language, but NOT in Old English, of course, or in other ancient languages (See my profile).

Hope you can find somebody who can help you.

Best regards
Maria
