Riht-lǽcan

Nach dem Altenglischen Wörterbuch:

riht-lǽcan

Add(?) : to agree, be fitting :-- Gehwǽrlǽcan l riht-[lǽcan] congruant, i. conueniant (quamvis gymnicorum exempla . . . rite congruant ad comparationem eorum, Ald. 3, 23), An. Ox. 66. Rihtlǽcan seems doubtful here, as the verb elsewhere is transitive, and means to set right. Riht seems to refer to rite, and riht-geþwǽrlǽcan to be the completion intended.] riht-læcan,rihtlæcan
