Webster 1913 Edition


Ae

Æ

or

Ae

.
A diphthong in the Latin language; used also by the Saxon writers. It corresponds to the Gr.
αι
. The Anglo-Saxon short æ was generally replaced by a, the long ǣ by e or ee. In derivatives from Latin words with ae, it is mostly superseded by e. For most words found with this initial combination, the reader will therefore search under the letter E.

Webster 1828 Edition


Ae

AE

, a diphthong in the Latin language; used also by the Saxon writers. In derivatives from the learned languages, it is mostly superseded by e, and convenience seems to require it to be wholly rejected in anglicized words. For such words as may be found with this initial combination, the reader will therefore search under the letter E.
