• beolt

• oltvány

From Old Saxon āld, from Proto-Germanic *aldaz. Cognate with English old, Dutch oud, German alt, West Frisian âld.

• Stem vowel: ô²
  • (originally) IPA^(key): /ɔːlt/ or IPA^(key): /ɔlt/
  • While the combination /ld/ originally lengthened the vowel in Old Saxon, in several Middle Low German dialects it was treated like a geminate, or had actually become /lː/, and in turn shortened long vowels occurring before it. Further, the vowel was shortened before /lt/ from final obstruent devoicing. Dialects then often begun to apply the more common vowel length across all forms.
