Even dark mode is influenced by a medieval-style “dark mode” where manuscripts were inscribed in gold on pages dyed a deep bluish-black.\n\nGold shimmer! Many manuscripts would shimmer under the light due to their use of gold leaf. Gold elements in the Wordhord can shimmer in the same way when you move your device. (This feature can be turned on in settings.)\n\nThe Wordhord aims to be accessible to all with support for Dynamic Type, Reduced Motion, VoiceOver and Voice Control.\n\nWhat is Old English?\nOld English is the language you think you know until you actually hear or see it.  Used throughout much of Britain over a thousand years ago, it is rich with words that haven’t changed (like word), others that are unrecognizable (such as neorxnawang, or paradise) and some that are curious even in translation (gafol-fisc literally means tax-fish).\n\nAll words hoarded by Old English scholar and author of The Wordhord: Daily Life in Old English, Hana Videen.\n\nTerms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/","bundleID":"com.abetterwaytodo.Wordhord","appiconURL":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple221/v4/8a/77/e7/8a77e756-10db-ad75-061c-19d797a13a1c/AppIcon-0-0-1x_U007epad-0-0-0-1-0-85-220.png/1024x1024w.webp","formattedPrice":"Free","appUpdated":"2025-05-27T11:00:32.000Z","appReleased":"2021-07-22T07:00:00.000Z","version":"2.0.0","platforms":["iphone","ipad"],"minOS":{"iphone":"Requires iOS 15.0 or later.","ipad":"Requires iPadOS 15.0 or later.","mac":"Requires macOS 12.0 or later and a Mac with Apple M1 chip or later."},"languages":["EN"],"size":"49.2 MB","category":"Entertainment","developerWebsite":"https://oldenglishwordhord.com/app","screenshots":[{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/45/bc/c4/45bcc4f5-b8d6-31b7-16d2-3ac4188af341/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_1__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/29/71/43/297143f2-062b-d412-579a-4cdaef3f23e2/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_2__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/13/23/fb/1323fb13-f4cb-8a6a-4c37-f7810c620644/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_3__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/22/5b/93/225b932d-1456-0e3f-ecd0-b71ad966f8bd/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_4__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/58/dd/8a/58dd8a2a-6d96-609e-9f0b-0bbdaf4760f9/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_5__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"ipad","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/b6/ea/a4/b6eaa430-ac15-544e-6f74-0eff3cc308fe/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPad_-_13_U0022_Display_-_6__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/2064x2752w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/33/ef/86/33ef86a4-fa2c-17c0-cc8a-07a5293df5dc/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_1__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/5f/ec/ff/5fecffe0-c294-9fe5-e534-dfea5496ddd2/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_2__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/b4/f6/ec/b4f6ec53-0459-c7e6-c6e9-179d9fa05a26/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_3__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/b3/16/b9/b316b991-daf2-9f90-b842-63d6a3c2141b/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_4__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/7f/90/c0/7f90c0c7-cbb3-6061-7ff7-ed6059f14b34/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_5__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"},{"platform":"iphone","url":"https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/34/41/92/34419233-9197-4245-9d4b-92c084fd123b/English__U005ben_U005d__U007c_iPhone_-_6.9_U0022_Display_-_6__U007c_2025-05-05_14-14-59.jpeg/1290x2796w.webp"}]}
