Mōnaþ-spell is not a real Old English word, although its components are real: mōnaþ (month) + spell (story/narrative/message). It’s the same spell that’s in modern English ‘gospel’, from Old English god-spell (God’s story/narrative/message).

At the end of each month, I post my mōnaþ-spell, an account of the Old English- and medieval-related things I’ve done/read/seen over the past month. I tell about how my current projects are progressing, any interesting texts or words I’ve come across, etc. I give a sneak peek at what I’m working on for Book 3.

If you become a $5+/month supporter on Patreon, you will get to read my mōnaþ-spell each month. You will also have access to an archive of 400 Wordhord Wednesday posts. These posts address a variety of topics. Where does a word appear in Old English? How is it used? What’s its etymology? What modern words and place names are derived from it? Some posts include audio files of me reading from Old English texts, so you can hear how the words are pronounced and how they fit into the rhythm of the poetry.

Below are links to some free posts, so you can get an idea of what my Patreon content is like. If you like what you read, consider becoming a Goldgifa on my Patreon page. You can donate as little as $1 per month to support the hours I put into the Wordhord every week.
