Norsk Ordbok (
NO) is a comprehensive
dictionary of written New Norwegian (
Nynorsk) and the Norwegian
dialects, planned to twelve volumes and with eleven volumes published. The work will be completed in 2014. It is edited at the
University of Oslo, published by the Norwegian publishing house Det Norske Samlaget, and financed by a direct government grant. Generally regarded as the definitive dictionary of Nynorsk, it defines around 25,000 headwords per volume and will end at around 300 000 headwords. Illustrative quotations are drawn both from spoken Norwegian (with a geographical reference) and from literature.
