Research subject The history of Swedish and Scandinavian languages

LMNL is a unique lexicographic resource of the medieval legal language of the Nordic region and an important tool for internationalising research of the medieval laws and legal history of the Nordic countries.

The aim of the project is a critical edition of the entire Old Swedish text corpus of Birgitta’s (1303–1373) texts, both her revelations and other shorter texts. An additional goal is to provide transcriptions of all manuscripts including fragmentary material.

The projects aim is to make Swedish runestones accessible to the public by creating an application that shows which runestones are near the user. The user will receive reliable and up-to-date information on each stone's location, condition, reading, interpretation and dating.

The project focusses on syndetic pairs, i.e. coordinating constructions where two words of the same part of speech are placed on an identical level of syntactic hierarchy.
