## What is LP Old Norse?

Old Norse can be studied as the language of the Eddas and the Icelandic sagas; the ancestor of the Scandinavian tongues; or, because of the Viking presence in the British Isles, a major influence on the development of English. But while many of its words are recognisable, the connections are often vague or misleading, and it follows a more complicated grammar than most of its modern relatives. The answer is ultimately memorisation, which is where Liberation Philology Old Norse can help.

Whenever you have a moment to spare, your phone can call up a rolling multiple-choice test that helps you practise Old Norse vocabulary and grammar. Each answer you give is immediately confirmed or corrected, and your knowledge is reinforced by as much repetition as you find useful.

• Vocabulary: 335 levels, each testing your ability to translate ten words between English and Old Norse. Interspersed among these are cumulative levels reviewing what has been learned earlier (for a total of 377 levels).

• Nouns: Tests your ability to parse and to decline all types of Old Norse nouns.

• Pronouns: Tests the declension of Old Norse pronouns.

• Verbs: Tests your ability to parse and to conjugate Old Norse verbs, present and past, indicative and subjunctive, active and middle (revised and expanded in 2020).

An additional Reference module allows you to review the word-list for the vocabulary test, and the paradigms for nouns, verbs, and pronouns.

### 2/5 — Needs audio

*2021-12-06*

Needs audio for words

### 4/5 — Audio

*2019-07-10*

Wish I could hear how to say the words.

### 5/5 — Old Norse

*2018-12-23*

I love this app when doing a course it provides great repetition of words plus a few extra but useful wordsHaving the separate sections means you can narrow down on difficult areas. Being multiple choice makes it easier to choose and see how words connect with another and what sound shifts occur over time. Much more than just a vocabulary drill!

### 2/5 — For scholars

*2018-09-02*

If like me you haven’t got a degree in English literature and know things such as genitive and nominative etc and you are just looking to learn old Norse this is not for you.

You have to know some things (unless just doing the vocabulary section) to learn from this otherwise it’s just a hap hazard multiple choice basher without learning the difference between word forms or how to use them in sentences.

### 3/5 — Could be worse, could be better.

*2018-05-02, version 1.4.3*

Audio or even written out “how to pronounce” feature would be ideal. Like, “Kona” = “k-oh-nah” the only reason I know some of them to some extent is because I know some Norwegian and I feel like if there is people out there who don’t have any experience will be saying this all incorrectly.

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2018-03-05*

Thanx for your amazing work, excellent app

### 5/5 — Daring idea

*2017-12-04*

This is what the internet is for: access to those thing before it arrived. 
There is a wide variety of drills and paradigms in all these languages.
The developer may wish to consider making a way of recording what the user forgets for a retest, perhaps also a more effective random selector.
Great stuff; carry on!

### 2/5 — Please make it more customizable

*2017-11-16*

This would be better if one could create customizable vocabulary lists. I would also like the option to change the order in which cases are displayed in the reference window (for example be able to have Nominative Accusative Dative Genitive) . An option to have a chime or buzzer for audio feedback would be useful. Right now, I don't recommend this app.

### 4/5 — Good practice

*2017-11-15*

Could use pronunciations and different practice methods (like how Duolingo, for example, has problems where you have to type the answer without a word bank, and some where one forms sentences with a word bank), but overall, with what little there is available for this language, this is good practice for what is out there, but has room for improvement.

### 5/5 — I love that this exists

*2016-10-06*

I took Old Norse in college and was looking for a way to keep from losing everything. I am so pleased to find this delightful app. Some pronunciation help might improve it for people with no prior Old Norse experience, but, overall, it's a great app for getting a little practice in while waiting at the doctor's, taking on the train, or just relaxing at home.
