The Vocalism of Romanic Words in Chaucer is a linguistic study of the way in which French and Latin words were pronounced in Middle English during the time of Geoffrey Chaucer. Written by Ruben Nojd and originally published in 1919, the book explores the phonetic changes that occurred as these foreign words were assimilated into English pronunciation. Nojd examines the various vowel sounds used in French and Latin, and traces their evolution in Middle English, with particular attention paid to Chaucer's usage. The book includes numerous examples of words and phrases from Chaucer's works, as well as detailed explanations of the linguistic processes at work. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of Middle English literature, linguistics, and historical phonetics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
