<h2><a name="Introduction">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>Welcome to the project for providing freely available dictionaries, spell- and grammar checking systems for Norwegian bokm�l and nynorsk. This
project is a continuation of the good work done previously by Rune
Kleveland, and is the source of all the freely available spell
checking systems for these languages. Currently, support for ispell,
aspell and myspell is included.</p>
<p>The maintenance of the word database is done using the system
<a href="http://www.speling.org/">speling.org</a>. This is an email
driven system where everybody can help to make the database better by
proof reading the words.</p>
<p>This project includes the following for bokm�l and nynorsk:
<ul>
<li>Hunspell <b>spellchecker</b>:</li>
<li>Word database, with word class and conjugation information.</li>
<li>Thesaurus database.
<li>Hyphenation rules (in TeX format, automatically transformed to
OpenOffice.org format).
<li>Affix rules (in ispell format, automatically transformed to aspell
and myspell format).
<li>Word frequency information, in cooperation the �An Gramadoir�
project and others.
<li>LanguageTool <b>grammar checker</b>:</li>
<li>Norwegian grammar ;)</li>
<li>deambiguators</li>
<li>rules, algorithms </li>

to get help from the An Gramadoir project.</li>
</ul>
The plans for the future :
<ul>
<li>Make spell checker that can do grammar checking, this is a major
task.</li>
<li>Improve the wordlists for bokmål and nynorsk to be
up-to-date with regards of new words.</li>
