Glossarium mediae et infimae Latinitatis (Glossary of medieval and late Latin, Paris, 1678) is a work by Charles du Fresne, sieur du Cange. This work, together with a glossary of medieval and late Greek that he published ten years later, has gone through numerous editions and revisions and is still consulted frequently by scholars today. Du Cange's pioneering work distinguished medieval Latin and Greek from their earlier classical forms, marking the beginning of the study of the historical development of languages.
