Each word with its meanings, its forms, and the lines it stands in.

Older form of modern Swedish redan.

allihop

all of them; all; everyone 9 times

allihop

pronoun, plural; adjective, nominative, plural; noun, nominative, common gender, plural

allra

very; of all; most 28 times

allra, Allra

"Most of all" only fits "allra ondast" (angriest of all); in "allra vackraste," "allra tunnaste," and "allra förskräckligaste" allra intensifies the following superlative and renders as "very" (the very loveliest/thinnest/worst).

allvarlig

gravely; solemn; serious 10 times

allvarligt, allvarliga, allvarlig, allvarligare

adjective, nominative, neuter, singular; adjective, nominative, plural; adjective, nominative, common gender, singular

åka

field; ride; riding 30 times

åker, åka, åkande, åkte

verb, present, indicative, active; verb, active, infinitive; adjective, nominative

Mislemmatized: surface is 'åker', the noun ('a field'), in both attested examples ('slog ner på en åker', 'stänger för en åker') — not a form of the verb åka ('to ride/drive'). Gloss corrected to the noun sense actually attested.

åsta

off/away; off 8 times

åstad

adjective, nominative, common gender, singular; verb, past, participle, common gender, singular, nominative; verb, past, indicative, active

Duplicate entry for the adverb 'åstad'; lemma mis-split as 'åsta'.

åstad

verb, past, participle, common gender, singular, nominative; verb, active, infinitive; proper noun, nominative

Adverb 'åstad' (off, away); mistagged as proper noun.

åt

to; at; in 350 times

åt

preposition; adverb

Mostly the adverb åt with the senses listed, but example ch02-p31-s1 ('Hela tiden, som pojken åt...') is not this adverb at all — it is åt as the past tense of äta ('ate'). The gloss's senses list must cover this example or a downstream consumer will render 'ate' as a directional adverb.
