Fartyng and Other Forbidden Words

April 7, 2007 / by faculties

The words I'm using aren't real words, according to my new 21st-century version of Word. Clearly Microsoft needs to invent a version of Word for transgressive medievalists. Maybe they could call it Wyrd. (That's an Anglo-Saxonist joke.) Here are the words it flagged in my latest chapter, which, as you'll see, is a doozy of a chapter:

fartyng
transgressive
dungheap
tun
strawpuppet
firebucket
exudeth
loathsome
layest
hadst
helminths
carnality
bodiliness
chamberpots
wardmote
overdetermined
animality
putrified
mentalité
humidities

Doesn't that make you want to buy my book?!? Step right up!

    [LOL] So you can relate to my frustration when WORD gets total lockjaw when I try to type a letter in French. GRRRR! [THUMBDOWN][MAD]
