Abstract

The formula for the liberation of slaves is handed down in the vernacular in chapter xxvi of the ‘Pactus legis Salicae’ and chapter xxxvii of the ‘Lex Salica’ [both C6]. The language of this particular part of the text seems to have strong characteristics of Low Franconian, such as the pronoun thi in the accusative and the prefix â- in verbs. In this respect it differs somewhat from the other so-called ‘Malberg Glosses’ in this Latin text.
