Example text
There are also words which are quite strange to the modern reader, like neiȝede ‘approached’ and clepide ‘called’. There are familiar-looking words with unfamiliar meanings, like symfonye ‘musical instrument’, crowde ‘fiddle’, largely ‘liberally, plenteously’, thyngis ‘goods’ and for ‘because’ (in ‘for he receyued him saf’). ) and past participles ending in -n (comen, founden). In spelling, only u occurs in the passage, not v, but in Wycliffe’s time they tended to be used interchangeably, and not distributed as they are in the 1611 passage: the use of v initially and u elsewhere was a printer’s convention, which in England lasted until about 1630, but manuscripts often use the two letters indiscriminately.
And he answeringe to his fadir seide, Lo, so manye ȝeeris I serue to thee, and I brak neuere thi commaundement, thou hast neuer ȝouun a kyde to me, that I schulde ete largely with my frendis. But aftir that this thi sone, which deuouride his substaunce with hooris, cam, thou hast slayn to him a fat calf. And he seide to him, Sone, thou ert euere with me, and alle myne thingis ben thyne. Forsothe it bihofte to ete plenteously, and for to ioye: for this thi brother was deed, and lyuede aȝeyn: he peryschide, and he is founden.
The use of intonation for conveying meaning can be shown very simply by speaking the two sentences: (a) He’s going to be there? (b) He’s going to be there. In (a) we have a rising tone on the final stressed syllable, and in (b) a falling tone, and in many varieties of English this makes the difference between a question and a statement. These two are very common intonation patterns in English: (b) is used in statements and in ‘wh- questions’ (ones beginning with words like which, where and who), while (a) is used in questions which can be answered ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
