<div dir="ltr">Dear colleagues. <br>We have now launched an online atlas based on the data collected under
the ScanDiaSyn project umbrella over the last decade – and which have
been assembled in the Nordic Syntax Database and the Nordic Dialect
Corpus (<a href="http://www.tekstlab.uio.no/nota/scandiasyn/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.tekstlab.uio.no/nota/scandiasyn/index.html</a>). The atlas has been named The Nordic Atlas of Language Structures Online ( "NALS Online") and is available at <a href="http://tekstlab.uio.no/nals" target="_blank">http://tekstlab.uio.no/nals</a>.<br>
<br>
At present the atlas consists of 57 chapters written by Kristine
Bentzen, Piotr Garbacz, Janne Bondi Johannessen, Marit Julien, Ida
Larsson,
Björn Lundquist, Christine Østbø Munch and Øystein Aexander Vangsnes.
There are 223 maps showing the geographical distribution of
various phenomena. The technical solutions have been developed by Anders
Nøklestad. <br>
<br>
Please take a look and (hopefully) enjoy the entries. And please do tell your colleagues about it!<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div dir="ltr">Janne Bondi Johannessen<br>Professor<div><a href="http://www.hf.uio.no/iln/english/about/organization/text-laboratory/" target="_blank">The Text Laboratory, ILN, </a>&<br>
