ygo[edit]

An obsolete past participle of go, used by w:Edmund Spencer, apparently. I am doubtful. It would surely be ygone or somesuch. † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 15:26, 27 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

It looks like it is archaic for ago, according to these: [1], [2], [3].sewnmouthsecret 16:42, 27 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
OK. I’ve corrected the definition. Do you care to cite it? † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 20:11, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Indeed, OED.com provides six citations for it, including Spenser, and lists "ygone", "ygoe" as alternative spellings. Would it be alright for me to copy the citation itself from the OED entry into ygo, since the cited work is definitely in the public domain? – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 04:28, 1 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Generally speaking, no, that is not OK. --Connel MacKenzie 20:40, 17 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
