Many thanks all and thanks for the challenge Buddy. Like Chris, I was surprised by the Coltrane Ellington piece, from a 1963 collaboration it seems. Good walking country.

Tyke, indeed, I had thought I might lay low for a while, oh well, Cheers all

Thanks Buddy. That bit of ye olde English actually made sense on first read. Now I feel olde English. 😄

Thanks for the votes. A bronze! Woohoo! That's v encouraging. 👍

Buddy, how did you do the Middle English translation? Does Luno derive from Juno? Moon and Jupiter?

I think it is iuno as middle english had no J?

I used this site:

https://huggingface.co/spaces/Qilex/EnglishToMiddleEnglish

there are several like it out there

on the other hand that site translated John as Joon, so maybe it just didn't know what to do with "jono". But Google says the J appeared in 1524.

Well done, Joon! Thanks to those who voted for my clues - udderly pleased with a 🥈.
Thanks, Buddy, for the challenge, the language excursion, and the clips.

O NO Buddy! Thanks for setting etc. (Don't know if you saw my weak riposte 41)
Well done Jon - For a (brief) moment I feared I might have to step up...
Thanks everyone for the votes.
Darla 47 - good spot. Is it deliberate Peter?

Well done Jono and thanks for a good challenge Buddy.
A vote here and there keeps me saner.

Bravo, Joon or Iono or whatever. Thanks for hosting and the language lessons, buddy, which apparently is buddy in ME. Thanks also to the few who threw pity votes my way.

Hi Paul. Yes the name (anagram)* was my attempt to come up with a crossword related user name. As a keen Listener, i and Magpie puzzles, and more gender appropriate, I should have gone for Edgeman. 😄
