<hw>\'92</hw> or <hw>Ae</hw></mhw>. <def>A diphthong in the Latin language; used also by the Saxon writers. It answers to the Gr. <?/. The Anglo-Saxon short <i>\'91</i> was generally replaced by <i>a</i>, the long <?/ by <i>e</i> or <i>ee</i>. In derivatives from Latin words with <i>ae</i>, it is mostly superseded by <i>e</i>. For most words found with this initial combination, the reader will therefore search under the letter E.</def>
