Notes:Glossary

Special terms in the Anne of Green Gables series are hard to understand. This guide will help clarify the meanings of Victorian Era words.
 * Putting one's oar in. This means to involve yourself in someone else's buisness. Matthew promised Marilla he wouldn't put his oar in the upbringing of Anne. In other words, he promised to mind his own buisness.
 * Homely. This means not good-looking. This world was used a lot to by Anne at first, when she describes herself.
