 * Dictionary
+Below you will find a simple Eittlandic to English dictionary. It uses
+some abbreviations you should keep in mind:
+- acc :: accusative
+- adj :: adjective
+- adv :: adverb
+- art :: article
+- aux :: auxiliary
+- comp :: comparative
+- conj :: conjunction
+- Dan :: Danish
+- dat :: dative
+- def :: definite
+- Eng :: English
+- f :: feminine
+- gen :: genitive
+- Ger :: German
+- imp :: imperative
+- ind :: indicative
+- interr :: interrogative
+- m :: masculine
+- ME :: Middle Eittlandic
+- n :: neuter
+- neg :: negative
+- nom :: nominal
+- Nor :: Norwegian (Nynork if no dialect is specified)
+- num :: numeral
+- OE :: Old Eittlandic
+- ON :: Old Norse
+- pl :: plural
+- prep :: preposition
+- pret :: preterite
+- pron :: pronoun
+- sc :: strong common
+- sg :: singular
+- sn :: strong neuter
+- sv :: strong verb
+- Swe :: Swedish
+- wk :: weak
+- wn :: weak noun
+- wv :: weak verb
+
+Note that when a word is marked solely as /masculine/, /feminine/ or
+/neutral/, it is a noun. Otherwise, another marker such as /adj./ should
+be added, for instance /f.adj./ for a feminine adjective.
+
+All words are indexed by their spelling as determined by Standard
+Eittlandic, which roughly corresponds to the accusative of other
+dialects. Each noun has its declension presented to the reader as a
+guide to how it might generally look in dialects other than Standard
+Eittlandic, however variations may exist from one dialect to another.
+For instance, while most Eittlandic dialects lost the /ru/ part of the
+dat.pl. declention, going from /férum/ to /fém/, some dialects in East
+Northern Eittland still retain the former form.
+
+Letters in parenthesis are no longer used when writing Eittlandic but
+are still underlying vowels that can still affect the pronunciation of
+the word and its surroundings. For instance, /dag/ can represent two
+forms of the word /dag(r)/, /dag/ and /dag(a)/. The former is pronounced
+{{{phon(daɣ)}}} while the latter is pronounced {{{phon(daj)}}}. They can also
+represent grammatical cases which are no longer used in Standard
+Eittlandic, such as /dag(r)/ shown above which doesn’t exist as /dagr/ in
+Standard Eittlandic, only as /dag/.
