Lexicographic resources
Several dictionaries of Medieval Nordic languages are accessible on the web. They are presently in different formats and the interfaces are not uniform, but they do represent an extremely useful resource:
- Fritzner’s dictionary (Icelandic and Norwegian)
- Söderwall and Schlyter’s dictionaries (Swedish) – queries in Fornsvensk lexikalisk databas
- Kalkar’s dictionary (Danish) – scanned images of the printed dictionary (launched in 2000)
- Kalkar’s dictionary (Danish) – full search capabilities (launched in 2017)
A project headed by Hans Fix, University of Greifswald, has made Walter Baetke’s Wörterbuch zur altnordischen Prosaliteratur accessible in an updated version for free usage. The dictionary can be downloaded as a PDF file (75 MB). A fast connection is thus essential.
