The September 2009 publication "How We'd Talk if the English had Won in 1066" by David Cowley updates Old English words to today's English spelling, seeking mainstream appeal by covering words in five grades ranging from "easy" to "weird and wonderful" and giving many examples of use with drawings and tests. Paul Kingsnorth's 2014 "The Wake" is written in a hybrid of Old English and Modern English to account for its 1066 milieu, and Edmund Fairfax's 2017 satiric literary novel "Outlaws" is similarly written in a "constructed" form of English consisting almost exclusively of words of Germanic origin.
