A Dictionary of Old Norse Prose (Danish: Ordbog over det norrøne prosasprog), abbreviated as ONP, is a dictionary of the vocabulary attested in medieval West Scandinavian prose texts.[1] The dictionary is funded through the Arnamagnæan Commission and is based in the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics at the University of Copenhagen.[2] The project began in 1939 and was intended to supplement Johan Fritzner’s Ordbog over det gamle norske Sprog and other nineteenth century lexicographical works.[1] Work on the first printed volume began in 1989. Three more volumes were printed with the last appearing in 2004. In 2005 the dictionary moved to freely available online publication.[3]
