15世紀の英語の「書き言葉標準」として指摘されてきた "Chancery English" については,chancery_standard の各記事で取り上げてきた.Chancery English のアンソロジーを編んだ Fisher et al. (34) には,語源的綴字 (etymological_respelling) について少し記述がある.
Prefixes which appear in MnE with Latin ad still usually appear in their French form a. The MnE noun advice is 32 times a (avis, etc.) and 19 times ad; the MnE verb advise is six times a and five times ad. Adnullacion and adnulling appear once each alongside annullen once. Hypercorrection appears when an official hand notes on the dorse of a petition "he hath be resumed to þe kynges advayle [avail]" (227.20).
ほかには,巻末の "Glossary of Forms" を丹念にたどっていくと,語源的綴字を示す単語の例を拾っていくことができる.ここでは拙論 "Etymological Respellings on the Eve of Spelling Standardisation" で注目した66の語彙項目とその派生語を中心に,Glossary から抜き出すことのできた関連項目を再掲する(赤字筆者).S (= the Signet letters), P (= Privy Seal), C (= Chancery), N (= the Indentures) などの記号はアンソロジー内の典拠を指すが,詳細は同書に譲る.

現代まで残らなかった adnullacion (cf. "annul"), auctorite "authority", advayle "avail" などの綴字が目に留まる.「書き言葉標準」とは名ばかりで,Chancery English の時代は,まだまだ揺れの激しい時代だったことが分かるだろう.
