Saxon, also known as Anglo-Saxon or simply Old English, was an early form of the English language spoken in England until the thirteenth century.[1] The diary of Gertie Keddle was written in "badly spelled" Saxon.[2] The word werewolf is taken from the Anglo-Saxon word wer meaning man and the word wolf, manwolf.
