Description

A mailing list for a course in Old Norse for beginners. The course material is contained at the course's homepage (below).

Note! This is not a complete course and there is no guarantee that it will ever be completed.

This is also a general list for students of Old Norse to exchange information and ideas. Everything regarding the Old Norse language is on topic here. You are welcome to post your own ponderings, questions, translation problems et cetera.

This is exclusively a language group. There are no religious or political strings attached.

Everyone is welcome.
