The word aelf is from old English and the word has connection to the meaning of brightness or shining. The word more than likely later became elf. They could vary from physical to more ephemeral in nature. There strong references to seductiveness and beauty. The gender was confusing in the literature as they are initially viewed as a sexual or interchangeable with male/female. #mythology #folklore #fairylore
