  • Comment on (A): Coryli avellanae fructus, hazelnut, Haselnuss

    L ABELLANA, etc. (cf. André 1985, s.v. CORULUS).

  • Comment on (B): Juglandis regiae nucum, walnut, Walnuss

    L IUGLANS (from IOVIS GLANS).

  • Comment on (C): -, nut, Nuss

    Cf. PD, HA and Banham (1990,157): identifying hnutu with hazel and walnut is too specific, the general meaning 'nut' would be better. It probably denotes hazelnut more often, because this fruit is more often encountered in Anglo-Saxon England than the walnut.

It is not justified to assume a nsg. nytu because of the form nyte; cf. ClH s.v.: "nytu (Mt(R) 7,16) = hnutu." The gloss nyte is a "guess" of the glossator. Mt(Li): ficbeamas.
