Do English and Middle English have other examples of dg -> gg accordance: bridge -> brigge, hedge -> hegge, midge -> migge, ridge -> rigge, edge -> egge?
@NickTheodorov,
Middle English didn't have any standardisation.
Geoffrey Chaucer wrote in his own dialect, so we don't know what other dialects were like in England at the time.
