Encyclopedia > Svenska Akademiens Ordlista

Svenska Akademiens Ordlista, or SAOL for short, is a dictionary published every few years by the Swedish Academy. It is a single volume that is considered the final arbiter of Swedish spelling. Traditionally it carries the motto of the Swedish Academy, "Snille och Smak" ("Talent and Taste"), on its blue cloth cover. Whenever a new edition comes out lively discussions about new and changed entries erupt around the country. In some instances the Academy has been ahead of its times and has later had to change entries back to older spellings. Jos - juice is probably the most well-known instance.

Svenska Akademins ordlista är en gedigen och grundläggande bok i det svenska språket, som borde finnas tillgänglig för varje svensk medborgare.
Det var egentligen först därefter som svenska språket genom SAOL fick en gemensam norm för hur vi ska stava ord.
