| Summary: | Geographical holes in a national dictionary – about geographical representation of thesources in Norsk Ordbok. Norsk Ordbok covers both the written language ’nynorsk’ and thespoken language in Norway. As a national dictionary, there is a demand for geographicalrepresentation when it comes to the spoken language. Nevertheless this survey shows that thespoken language in the northern part of Northern Norway and in most cities, is very poorlydocumented. The main reason for this seems to be a heritage from an earlier neogrammaticalinfluenced linguistic tradition which was characterised by studies with Old Norse as onecomparative component. Little attention was paid to dialects which were a product of languagecontact, which is the case for both the dialects in the northern part of Northern Norway and inthe cities until late in the 1970's. Norsk Ordbok was organised as a project i 2002 and there is nowsome effort put in balancing the source material with a view to geographical representation. |
