Comment on (A): -, twig, Zweig
-
Comment on (B): -, lot, Los
On L SORS cf. Philippson (1966,226): "Das Wort tan [...] in der Bedeutung 'Los' [...] zeigt noch, daß Zweige zum Losen verwandt wurden, doch ob die Gestalt oder ein geritztes Bild (Rune ?) die Lose unterschied, bleibt unklar."

Cf. R.I. Page (1975,483f.): "In view of the original meaning of δάκτυλος and the translation gloss fingerapplum, it seems […] likely that the word here is the rarer tan, a doublet of ta, "toe". Of course, an Anglo-Saxon copying the gloss may have interpreted it as tan, "twig", with the idea of "fruits developing from that "shoot, sprout"."

For the LB there seems to be no difference in meaning between OE twig and tan but the little number of occurrences is not helping to answer this question. Identification based on all L lemmata but DACTILUS, NICOLAUS, SORS, UULTUS.
