Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Betsey the Milk-Maid/Blackberry Fold
I note the word "wonnit", a Scots word that I have not met before. I assume it's the past tense of a verb cognate with German wohnen, with the same meaning. I have found "wonning", meaning a dwelling, in The Scots Dictionary but not the verb. Anyone know the present tense?
