The lexical database is built from the printed dictionary:
Dalin, Anders Fredrik Ordbok Öfver svenska språket. Vol I-II. (Stockholm 1850-1853).
The resource was developed by Språkbanken, University of Gothenburg. Searchable categories:
- lexical entries
- alternative lexical entries
- other orthographic variants
- compounds
- derivations
- particle verbs (loose compounds)
Dalin's dictionary is no longer restricted by copuright law, as the author has been dead for more than 70 years (Anders Fredrik Dalin 1806-1873).
The lexicon has been manually encoded at Språkbanken, University of Gothenburg. The encoded data has not been proof read.
