The Ormulum is a Middle English text written in the late 12th century by a monk named Orm, who was likely from the region that is now known as England. The work consists of a series of poetic texts that provide a unique record of the English language during that period. The Ormulum is particularly notable for its phonetic spelling, which reflects how words were pronounced at the time, making it an important resource for the study of historical linguistics.
