current/former

wikt:en:andweard means "current". The article you might have copied that from has said it since 2007, when it was current. I'm not sure how to say former... ping User:Espreon, User:Hogweard, anyone who sees this. PiRSquared17 (talk) 00:59, 30 Winterfylleþ 2013 (UTC)

See: [1]. That's the main OE dictionary I use - albeit you often have to search through lots of pages to get desired result, and it returns results for multiple old Germanic languages, not just OE. As an adjective, "ǣrra" (masculine singular nominative form, as evidenced by the "-a" ending) is adequate.    Ƿes hāl!     20:04, 31 Winterfylleþ 2013 (UTC)
Yes, or just ǣr- as a prefix, which is pretty common.
I use B&T, with a couple of on-line searchables: here and here, or the thesaurus Hogweard (talk) 00:25, 1 Blōtmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)
