I like this channel because it allows me to be able to have characters of mine based off of saxons to talk

[@learningoldgermaniclanguages]

I am glad you like this channel and may your characters speak Old Saxon! :D

They say Old Saxon and Wessex dialect of Old English, still were mutually inteligible around the 8th century?

Oh, my Goodness. I took a private class with a Scholar before graduation with English. What I learned did not look like this. It looked German, and other perhaps Nordic language. . Did you learn the lettering of Anglo Saxon in the original form ? Or, this form.

[@learningoldgermaniclanguages]

That is because this is not Old English but Old Saxon. Old Saxon was spoken on continental Europe, specifically Northern Germany. This isn't the language of the Anglo-Saxons. My first Old Germanic language was Old English and I have a channel dedicated to that called Leornende Eald Englisc. Link is below: kzbin.info/door/LnwScGuOxVlaN5aV9in9ag

[@esthersanborn7581]

Yes, yes, as below. German and Dutch

[@celtofcanaanesurix2245]

Also you let us know the language of (some of our) ancestors

[@learningoldgermaniclanguages]

That's one of the channel's goals. :)

Modern Westphalian He gaf it gift. Ik was hyr. Ik nem det sword. Du kennest dän man. He geng to den elf. Soi is der. Ek bin leofed. Was dod wy? It was min. Gey sind lock.

[@arino253]

Sounds quite like Westphalian

[@SpaceSloth707]

a lot of this sounds very familiar! My native language is Dutch.

[@iceomistar4302]

Thats because Old Low Franconian and Old Saxon were closely related.
