Slovenščina 2.0, 7 (1): 39–52. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4312/slo2.0.2019.1.39-52. Monolingual lexicography for Norwegian started some decades after political independence from Denmark in 1814. Since 1885 two written standards have been recognized, one based on Danish as spoken in Norway (today Bokmål), and one based on the Norwegian vernacular (Nynorsk). Both are fully described in major scholarly dictionaries, now completed and freely available on the web. Both receive some public funding, with a view to further development. Because of frequent orthographic revisions, at first aimed at bringing the written stan- dards closer to each other, spellers dominated the market through most of the 20th century. Today linguistic stability is aimed for, incorporating only such changes in the written standards as are supported by general usage. The first general monolingual defining dictionaries Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskord- boka, covering the central vocabulary of each written standard, were first pub- lished as parallel volumes in 1986, and are now undergoing revision at the Uni- versity of Bergen in cooperation with the Language Council of Norway. These dictionaries are now stored in databases, are available on the web and as a free smartphone app. Public funding of monolingual mother tongue lexicography is seen as an investment in essential linguistic infrastructure, as is bilingual lexi- cography between the Nordic languages and Norwegian, while other bilingual lexicography is dealt with by private publishers.

This has to do with the history of standardizing modern Norwegian. After the political separation from Denmark in 1814, Danish remained the chief written standard language until about 1900, al- though the lexicon could be seen to diverge from Danish. However, although Norwegian and Danish are cognate languages, Danish was unsatisfactory as the standard language both for political reasons and because of its remote- ness from the Norwegian vernacular. The Norwegian vernacular was docu- mented during the 19th century, and a written standard proposed, which in 1885 was given equal status to Danish by the Norwegian Parliament. Since then two written standards have been in use for Norwegian, now named Bokmål and Nynorsk. From after 1900 and until about 1970, the aim of official language policy in Nor- way was to bring the two standards together in one common language, and this was to be brought about through orthographic reform. Since 1970, official policy has shifted to maintaining the two standards on equal terms, and respecting the linguistic choices expressed in general usage (Vikør 1995, p. 204). As a consequence of a language policy expressed in the orthography, the Nor- wegian focus for a long time was centered on spellers (simple orthographic dictionaries listing only headwords, part of speech and occasionally additional information in order to distinguish between homographs), and not on lan- guage description through monolingual lexicography, centered on definitions and documented usage. Norwegian is therefore well equipped with spelling dictionaries at all levels. The first monolingual dictionaries to give a full de- scription of Bokmål and Nynorsk, with definitions, usage examples and the full apparatus of a modern dictionary, were Bokmålsordboka (Landrø and Wangensteen 1986) and Nynorskordboka (Hovdenak et al. 1986), which were produced in parallel and published as twin dictionaries in 1986. Scholarly monolingual lexicography started in Europe about 1800 with the advent of comparative language studies, necessitating collections of instances of language use, where the collections are maintained for quality control, ref- erence and new use. Scholarly monolingual lexicography came late to Norway, starting about 1920, with the collection of materials for Norsk riksmålsordbok 41 O. GRØNVIK, S. BERG-OLSEN, M. HOVDENAK, K. E. KARLSEN: State-of-the-art... (NRO, Sommerfelt et al. 1937–1957). NRO documented Bokmål as expressed in literature written in Norway after 1814 and as used by the educated classes early in the 20th century. NRO had two additional volumes published in 1995. A revised and updated edition incorporating all former materials was pub- lished as a web dictionary at the end of 2017. This dictionary, renamed Det Norske Akademis ordbok (NAOB), aims to give wide coverage of the Bokmål vocabulary in a current orthography. Scholarly lexicography for Nynorsk started with the work of Ivar Aasen (1813– 1896) and is most fully expressed in his dictionary of 1873. But Aasen’s lexi- cographic work is bilingual – definitions are expressed in Danish. In 1929 ef- forts started to collect materials for a large monolingual dictionary covering the Nynorsk written language and the Norwegian vernacular from the whole coun- try. The result is Norsk Ordbok (NO) I–XII (1966–2016) (cf. Grønvik, 2017). 2 G E N E R A L M O N O L I N G U A L D I C T I O N A R I E S A V A I L A B L E F O R N O R W E G I A N If we regard “a general monolingual dictionary” as a dictionary fully equipped with definitions and usage examples, then there are four general dictionar- ies for Bokmål (Norsk riksmålsordbok; Guttu 2005; Landfald 2006; Landrø and Wangensteen 2006) and two for Nynorsk (Norsk Ordbok; Hovdenak et al. 2006). The dominant e-dictionaries are Bokmålsordboka (based on Landrø and Wangensteen 2006, updated on the web since 2015) and Nynorskordboka (based on Hovdenak et al. 2006, updated since 2012). Both are available on . A revised and extended version of Guttu 2005 is available through the commercial dictionary service Ordnett. The web dictionary NAOB (based on Norsk riksmålsordbok and Guttu 2005) has been available online since 21 December 2017. The dictionaries that come the closest to serving as national symbols are Aas- en (1873) and Norsk riksmålsordbok, owing to their status as pioneer diction- aries of a language form, but these dictionaries are no longer used for current reference as the content is outdated. 42 43 Slovenščina 2.0, 2019 (1) 3 D I C T I O N A R Y U S A G E Search numbers for Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka have been high for years, rising sharply from 2004 to the present day. There are no long-term statistics for preferred reference dictionary, but the Norwegian data from the European survey of dictionary use and culture, received last year, confirm a tendency seen for several years in the logging system: the majority of diction- ary users prefer to use the portal for Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka, and they prefer to search both dictionaries together, rather than the one cor- responding to their chosen form of Norwegian. It seems that many people like looking at the object – the Norwegian language – from more than one angle. 4 S P E L L I N G D I C T I O N A R I E S – T H E I R U S E A N D S T A T U S Most people are acquainted with spellers from school and work. There are many different ones. Two dominant spellers are Tanums store rettskrivning- sordbok (Bokmål) and Nynorsk ordliste. These have been market leaders since the 1950s, though too comprehensive for elementary school use. The Language Council publishes a web list of authorized school spellers which currently has 13 spellers for Bokmål and 5 for Nynorsk (The Language Council, 2017). 5 S P E C I A L M O N O L I N G U A L D I C T I O N A R I E S F O R S C H O O L, F O R- E I G N L E A R N E R S E T C. There are printed spelling dictionaries designed for school use, but no espe- cially adapted defining dictionaries. There are several electronic spell check- ers. The major commercial resources provided to schools are Ordnett and Clarify (formerly known as iFinger). Other resources used in schools are Clue, CD-ord and Lingit. The defining dictionary portal is used in secondary education. Dictionaries for Norwegian as a foreign language exist in electronic form. The bilingual LEXIN series is aimed at immigrants and covers 18 languages. They are designed as unidirectional teaching dictionaries with Norwegian as the source language and the other language as the target language, but could probably also be used by Norwegians trying to master the target language. Use is free of charge. 43 O. GRØNVIK, S. BERG-OLSEN, M. HOVDENAK, K. E. KARLSEN: State-of-the-art... Inter-Nordic communication is encouraged through the dictionary website Islex, which covers the Nordic language pairs through small bilingual bidi- rectional dictionaries. Use is free of charge. A children’s dictionary for the Nordic languages, including Bokmål and Nynorsk, Nordisk miniordbok, was published some years ago, without full coverage of the orthography. Bilingual dictionaries for the languages generally taught as second and third lan- guages in school (English, German, French, and Spanish, etc.) are generally aimed at the Norwegian market, but also used by foreign learners of Norwegian. This segment of dictionary production lies under the domain of commercial publishing. 6 F U N D I N G O F N O R W E G I A N M O N O L I N G U A L L E X I C O G R A P H Y In the mid-sixties, it was recognized by the Norwegian government that the Norwegian language market was too small for large monolingual lexicograph- ical projects to be privately funded. A research institute for lexicography was proposed (Gundersen, 1967, p. 120), and established at the University of Oslo in 1972. Since 2016, this activity, with the Norwegian Language collections, has been located at the University of Bergen. The multivolume scholarly dic- tionaries Norsk Ordbok and Norsk riksmålsordbok were both publicly fund- ed, and the materials are now part of the Language Collections at the Univer- sity of Bergen. Det Norske Akademis ordbok is owned by a private publishing company, Kunnskapsforlaget, but has received considerable public funding. The rationale for public funding is that the large scholarly dictionaries serve as reference points for (smaller) commercial ventures within lexicography. Public funding of mother tongue lexicography is in short seen as a political investment in linguistic infrastructure. The full form registers for Bokmål and Nynorsk – Ordbanken (The Word Bank) – can be downloaded for free.1 Since the collections as well as the dictionaries were created with public fund- ing, the public is offered access to the digitized parts of the underlying collec- tions as well as the dictionaries themselves. The collections are heterogeneous, covering ca. 140 years of documentation, and include digitized slip archives, corpora, retro-digitized dictionaries of different kinds, dialect records and maps. These materials are organized through a common index, the Meta 1 The Word bank (Ordbanken).

They are maintained by the Language Collections unit at the University of Bergen. A major five-year revision (2018–2023) project for Bokmålsordboka and Nynor- skordboka has been granted funding by the Ministry of Culture, and an editorial staff is established at the University of Bergen. These very popular dictionaries have had no thorough overhaul of contents since the first publication in 1986, more than thirty years ago, so this project has been well received. The Language Council has also published a pair of spellers (Bokmålsordlista and Nynorskordlista), but these have not been kept updated. Other spellers are published commercially. An important issue is whether monolingual dictionaries are trusted to tell the truth about how a language is written and used in the linguistic community. The trust level for Norwegian monolingual dictionaries has not been looked into, but the portal ordbok.uib.no seems to enjoy a high level of usage and trust. 7 A V A I L A B L E D I C T I O N A R Y F O R M A T S Both paper versions and web versions are available for Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka, but the web versions are the updated ones. Minor correc- tions are made on a day to day basis, while revised alphabet sections will ap- pear according to a publication plan for the total ongoing revision project. The DWS for the database system used by these two dictionaries has style sheets for paper production. If new paper editions are judged financially viable, it is possible to produce a paper edition. Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka are available through a browser3 and through an app (“Ordbøkene”). The browser version has responsive de- sign. Ordnett4 also provides an app for accessing their dictionaries.

KARLSEN: State-of-the-art... dictionaries are produced only for the digital medium. This goes for both; the Islex5 and the LEXIN6 series exist only as electronic resources. In addition, Det Norske Akademis ordbok7 is available as an electronic publication. The dictionary writing system (DWS) for Norsk Ordbok, Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka was in 2014 defined as a research result at the Univer- sity of Oslo and registered with Inven2, the innovation company of the Uni- versity of Oslo. 8 W E B D I C T I O N A R I E S A N D T H E I N T E R N E T I N N O R W A Y Internet is in general use throughout the country although coverage may be uneven due to Norwegian topography. Internet coverage as of today ranges from 2G to 4G+ (Telenor, 2017), and public policy is that there should be full coverage in or near permanent dwellings and places of work. At present 97 % of the population aged 9–79 have internet access (Medienorge, 2017), while on average 87 % access internet every day (SSB, 2017). 9 A C C E S S T O E L E C T R O N I C D I C T I O N A R I E S F O R N O R W E G I A N – F R E E O R P A Y S E R V I C E? Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka at the dictionary portal ordbok.uib.no are freely available, as are most of the other electronic resources published by the Language Collections at the University of Bergen. The scholarly dictionary Norsk Ordbok,8 which covers all Norwegian dialects as well as the Nynorsk standard language, is freely available on the web from the letter I and to the end of the alphabet, the last letter being Å. A revision and upgrading project for the web edition of Norsk Ordbok A–H is planned, and has received pre- paratory funding from 2019 from the Ministry of Culture. There are also some pay services, the most important ones being ordnett.no and Clarify, which represents a number of Norwegian dictionary publishers (the latter company recently took over iFinger in Norway). 5 http://islex.is/nn 6 http://lexin.udir.no/ 7 https://www.naob.no/ 8 http://no2014.uib.no/perl/ordbok/no2014.cgi 46 47 Slovenščina 2.0, 2019 (1) Neither Ordnett nor Clarify publish cost details unless you approach them as a customer, and Clarify only accept institutions as customers. Both Ord- nett and Clarify have a wide range of bilingual dictionaries in addition to the monolingual ones, and deliver dictionary services to many schools and local authorities. 10 D I C T I O N A R Y U S E A S A S C H O O L S U B J E C T The national school curriculum for Norwegian states that students by year 7 should have acquired the skill of using different kinds of digital and pa- per-based dictionaries (Udir, 2013). Also see comments in the section for dic- tionary use below. 11 L A N G U A G E C O R P O R A – P U B L I C F A M I L I A R I T Y A N D U S E Most Norwegian language corpora require authentication before use, which effectively puts them beyond most people’s reach, though some are freely ac- cessible. Anyone who takes an interest in language documentation will have heard the word “corpus”, but very few outside the academic community will have used one. There are some exceptions. One is Nynorskkorpuset, a corpus of Nynorsk of 105 mill tokens covering the period 1866–2013. This is available to the gen- eral public through the website of the Language Collections at the University of Bergen. Nynorskkorpuset is also available through SketchEngine. Another exception is HaBiT Norwegian Web Corpus 2015 Bokmål (1.18 billion tokens) and Nynorsk (55 mill tokens) launched by the Text Laboratory, University of Oslo in cooperation with Masaryk University in Brno, the Czech Republic within the framework of the HaBiT project. These corpora are also available through SketchEngine. 12 L E X I C O G R A P H Y A N D C R O W D S O U R C I N G I N N O R W A Y If one considers all unsolicited contributions as a form of crowdsourcing, then there is a certain amount of support, especially in connection with dialect web sites, where people pass on information about words, expressions and usage. One instance is the website “Talemålet i Valle og Hylestad” (‘The vernacular of 47 O. GRØNVIK, S. BERG-OLSEN, M. HOVDENAK, K. E. KARLSEN: State-of-the-art... Valle and Hylestad),9 which has more than 13 000 entries in a simple but con- sistent dictionary format, is competently moderated and frequently updated. Norway has strong language associations (because of our two competing standards and their different political and social affiliations). Many local branches have at some point engaged in dialect lexicography, as have branch- es of other national organisations. No initiatives of importance concerning slang dictionaries or urban dictionar- ies are generally known or in use, though attempts have been made. 13 T H E S T A T U S O F L E X I C O G R A P H Y I N G E N E R A L I N N O R W A Y Lexicography is recognized as a specialized and necessary discipline both in relation to the mother tongue and in learning foreign languages. There is growing recognition of lexicography as a source of language and culture docu- mentation in schools, business and public administration. The awareness of lexicography use at a more advanced level is limited – judg- ing by the letters the dictionaries get, people tend to look at dictionaries as a source of orthographic information rather than a source of precise concept de- scription, though the number of comments on definitions and usage examples is growing. The assumption that a word has to be recorded in dictionaries in order to be safe to use motivates a great deal of the contact between dictionary users and dictionary staff. 14 R E S E A R C H I N G D I C T I O N A R Y U S E I N N O R W A Y Little has been done in Norway so far regarding gathering information about dictionary use. The Language Council did a survey of the use of web dictionar- ies in elementary and secondary schools in 2014 (Ims, 2015). This survey had responses from roughly 500 teachers and 5000 school pupils. The most impor- tant findings were that dictionary use increases with age, that secondary school pupils in programs preparing for tertiary education used dictionaries weekly or more often, and that Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka were the best known resources. The report is published only in Norwegian (The Language Council, 2015). An earlier study (Karlsen and Rødningen, 2008) surveys the 9 http://www.vallemal.no/frames.jsp?menu=3 48 49 Slovenščina 2.0, 2019 (1) use of monolingual dictionaries in Norwegian mother tongue teaching in up- per-secondary school, in the light of curricula for compulsory school and up- per-secondary school. This survey shows that 86 percent of the teachers pro- vide training in dictionary use, but that attention is mainly given to the formal aspects of language (orthography). An investigation of the textbooks used in mother tongue teaching shows that dictionary use is not a subject, not even where the subject matter strongly supports the use of reference works. 15 C O N C L U S I O N Mother tongue lexicography has come a long way in Norway in the last fifty years. The chief developments have been getting the first modern monolingual definition dictionaries, computerizing the major parts of the Language Col- lections, computerizing lexicography as a discipline and bringing out Norsk Ordbok (NO) and Det Norske Akademis Ordbok (NAOB). With these projects completed, together with the 2015 and 2012 updates of Bokmålsordboka and Nynorskordboka through the dictionary portal ordbok.uib.no, the Norwegian public has an adequate online selection of modern defining dictionaries, and Norway has quality information on the Norwegian language to offer for com- mercial and scholarly development. Access to language corpora will hopefully stimulate interest in language exploration and usage. A major revision project is afoot from the beginning of 2018 for Bokmålsord- boka and Nynorskordboka, which have had no thorough overhaul of contents since the first publication in 1986, more than thirty years ago. It would be natural to look at the needs and wishes of different user groups in connection with this project, and also to develop better systems for registering and speci- fying use, and developing usage statistics.

Od leta 1885 sta veljavna dva pisna standarda, eden temelječ na danščini (bokmål) in eden na norveškem dialektu (nynorsk). Oba sta opisana v večjih akademskih slovarjih, ki so zdaj prosto dostopni na spletu. Oba standarda sta deležna javnega financiranja, z namenom nadaljn- jega razvoja. Zaradi pogostih pravopisnih reform, ki so bile sprva namenjene predvsem približevanju obeh pisnih standardov, so večino 20. stoletja na trgu prevladovali predvsem pravopisni priročniki. Danes je cilj jezikovna stabilnost, tako da so v pisnem standardu sprejete zgolj spremembe, ki so utemeljene v splošni rabi. Prva splošna normativna slovarja, Bokmålsordboka in Nynor- skordboka, ki sta pokrivala osrednje besedišče obeh standarov, sta izšla vz- poredno leta 1986, zdaj pa sta v pregledu na Univerzi v Bergnu, v sodelovanju z Norveškim jezikovnim svetom. Slovarja sta zdaj zapisana kot podatkovni bazi in sta na voljo na spletu ter v obliki brezplačne aplikacije za mobilne telefone. Javno financiranje enojezične leksikografije materinščine je razumljeno kot naložba v kritično jezikovno infrastrukturo, podobno pa velja tudi za dvojezič- no leksikografijo v povezavi med norveščino in drugimi skandinavskimi jeziki, medtem ko za druge dvojezične slovarske projekte skrbijo zasebni založniki. Ključne besede: norveščina, skandinavski jeziki, jezikovna infrastruktura To delo je ponujeno pod licenco Creative Commons: Priznanje avtorstva-Deljenje pod enakimi pogoji 4.0 Mednarodna. / This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share- Alike 4.0 International. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
