Interview with an Anglo-Saxon in Old English
DISCLAIMER: This obviously isn't an actual Anglo-Saxon, it's me in a sheet.
A fun little thing to show reconstructed pronunciation of Old English in a casual setting. I've tried to throw in a few natural abbreviations (for example 'c rather than ic), but I know I missed the mark on one or two of the diphthongs. Either way, hopefully this gives some idea as to how the language sounded in casual speech. Message or comment if you'd like any clarifications, want to correct me on anything, or if you're just interested in the topic and would like to know more!
I didn't have any decent Anglo-Saxon clothing and, rather than cobble together something inaccurate, I just chucked on a linen sheet to hide my modern shirt. An actual Anglo-Saxon would be wearing something more like the reenactors shown in a couple of the other clips; a man would usually wear a tunic with a belt, although styles would vary massively from decade to decade and from place to place.
