HALI, a, m. [Dan. hale, cp. Lat. cauda], a tail; kýr-hali, a cow's tail; nauts-h., ljóns-h., etc.; skauf-hali, reynard, a fox, whence Skaufhala-bálkr, the name of an old poem, an Icel. Reineke Fuchs. Icel. use hali properly of cattle, and lions, wolves, bears; tagl of horses (of the hair, but stertr of a caudal vertebra); rófa of cats, dogs; skott of a fox; sporðr of a fish; stél or véli of birds; dyndill of seals. The old writers do not make these nice distinctions, and use hali of a horse and tagl of a cow, which a mod. Icel. would not do; hylr öll kykvendi hár eðr hali, Sks. 504: in Gþl. 398 of cattle, cp. N. G. L. i. 24; ef maðr höggr hala af hrossi svá at af rófu fylgir, Gþl. 399; ef maðr höggr hala af hrossi fyrir neðan rófu, id.; nú skerr maðr tagl af nautum, id.; eru þeir í málum mestir sem refr í halanum, Fms. viii. 350; ef maðr skerr af hrossi manns tögl, þá gjaldi aura þrjá; en ef hala höggr af, þá skal meta hross, N. G. L. i. 228; ok svá ef hann höggr hala af hrossi svá at rófa fylgir, id.: of a lion's tail, Stj. 71. 2. phrases, nú er úlfs hali einn á króki, a wolf's tail is all that is left, Band. (in a verse), -- a proverb from the notion that wild beasts devour one another so that only the tail is left, cp. etask af ulfs-munni, vide eta: leika lausum hala, to play with a free tail, to be unrestrained, Ls. 50; veifask um lausum hala, id., Sturl. iii. 30; bretta halann, or bera brattan halann, to lift the tail, cock up the tail, to be vain or haughty, Hkv. Hjörv. 20; en ef eigi er unnit, þá muntú reyna hvárr halann sinn berr brattara þaðan í frá, Ísl. ii. 330; sé ek at þú heldr nokkru rakkara halanum en fyrir stundu áðan, Ölk. 36; draga halann, to drag the tail, sneak awav, play the coward; dregr melrakkinn eptir sér halann sinn nú -- Svá er segir hann, at ek dreg eptir mér halann minn, ok berr ek lítt upp eðr ekki, en þess varir mik at þú dragir þinn hala mjök lengi áðr þú hefnir Halls bróður þíns, Ísl. ii. 329; sveigja halann, id., Hkv. Hjörv. 21; (cp. Ital. codardo, whence Engl. coward): spjóts-hali, the butt-end of a spear, Eg. 289, Ld. 132, Hkr. iii. 159; snældu-hali, a staff's end. II. metaph. a train, the rear of a host; skammr er orðinn hali okkarr, we have a short train, few followers, Sturl. (in a verse). COMPDS: hala-ferð, f. the rear, Sturl. iii. 23. hala-rófa, u, f. 'tail-row,' i.e. a string one after another, like geese; ganga í halarófu, to walk in h.; cp. Dan. gaasegang, Fr. en queue. hala-stjarna, u, f. a 'tail-star,' comet, (mod.) hala-tafl, n. a kind of game, used synonymous to hnef-tafl, q.v., prob. similar to the Engl. 'fox and goose;' hann tefldi hnet-tafl, þat var stórt hala-tafl (having a fox with a big tail), hann greip þá upp töfluna ok setti halann á kinnbein Þorbirni (prob. of the brick representing the fox), Grett. 144 A; vide Skýrsla um Forngripa-safn Íslands by Sigurd Gudmundsson, Reykjavík 1868, pp. 38, 39; cp. also hali á hnefa-töflu in Vilmundar S. Viðutan, ch. 8. III. a nickname, Fb. iii.

The following entry has been hand-corrected once. |
A.
PRONUNCIATION
AND
SPELLING.
--
H
is
sounded
as
in
English
hard,
house:
the
aspirate
is
still
sounded
in
hl,
hr,
hn
much
as
in
the
Welsh
ll,
rh:
the
hv
is
in
the
west
and
north
of
Icel.
sounded
as
kv;
but
in
the
south
and
east
the
distinction
is
kept
between
hv
and
kv
(hver
a
kettle
and
kver
a
quire,
hvölum
whales
and
kvölum
torments),
as
also
in
writing;
and
hv
is
sounded
like
wh
in
Northern
English;
in
a
small
part
of
eastern
Icel.
it
is
sounded
like
Greek
(hvalr
as
alr,
hvað
as
að),
and
this
is
probably
the
oldest
and
truest
representation
of
the
hv
sound.
II.
the
h
is
dropped,
1.
in
the
article
inn,
in,
it,
for
hinn,
hin,
hit,
which
is
often
spelt
so
in
old
MSS.
.
in
the
personal
pronoun
hann,
hún
if
following
after
another
word,
e.g.
ef
'ann
(ef
hann),
ef
'ún
(ef
hún),
þó
'onum
(þó
honum),
látt'
'ann
vera
(láttu
hann
vera),
segð'
'enn'
að
koma
(segðu
henni
að
koma);
this
is
the
constant
pronunciation
of
the
present
time,
but
in
writing
the
h
is
kept:
whereas,
at
the
beginning
of
a
sentence
the
h
is
sounded,
e.g.
hann
(hón)
kom,
he
(she)
came,
but
kom
'ann
?
(if
asking
the
question).
.
in
a
few
words
such
as
álfa
and
hálfa,
óst
and
host
(cp.
hósta),
ökulbrækr
and
hökulbraekr.
2.
in
the
latter
part
of
such
compounds
as
have
nearly
become
inflexions,
as
ein-arðr
for
ein-harðr:
in
-úð,
-ýðgi,
-ygð
(Gramm.
p.
xxxiii,
col.
1);
elsk-ogi,
var-ugi,
öl-ogi,
from
hugr;
örv-endr,
tröll-endr,
gram-endr,
from
hendr;
litar-apt
=
litar-hapt:
in
-ald
=
hald,
handar-ald,
haf-ald;
lík-amr
=
lík-hamr,
hár-amr
=
hár-hamr;
skauf-ali,
rang-ali,
from
hali;
at-æfi
=
at-hæfi,
and
perhaps
in
auð-œfi,
ör-œfi,
from
hóf
or
hœfi;
and-œfa
=
and-hœfa,
to
respond;
hnapp-elda
=
hnapp-helda:
in
pr.
names
in
-arr,
-alli,
-eiðr,
-ildr,
for
-harr
=
herr,
-halli,
-heiðr,
-hildr,
(Ein-arr,
Þór-alli,
Ragn-eiðr,
Yngv-ildr,
etc.)
In
a
few
words,
as
hjúpr,
and
derivatives
from
júpr,
hilmr
and
ilmr,
hopa
and
opa,
h
seems
to
have
been
added.
In
some
of
the
cases
above
cited
both
forms
are
still
heard,
but
the
apocopate
are
more
usual.
III.
h
is
neither
written
nor
sounded
as
final
or
medial,
and
has
in
all
such
cases
been
absorbed
by
the
preceding
vowel
or
simply
dropped
(see
Gramm.
p.
xxx,
col.
1).
IV.
some
MSS.,
especially
Norse,
use
a
double
form
gh
and
th
to
mark
a
soft
or
aspirate
sound,
e.g.
sagha
and
saga,
thing
and
þing;
especially
in
inflexive
syllables,
-ith
=
-it,
etc.
V.
a
curious
instance
of
spelling
(as
in
Welsh)
rh
for
hr
is
found
occasionally
in
Runes,
e.g.
Rhruulfr
for
Hrúlfr,
Thorsen
335;
to
this
corresponds
the
English
spelling
wh
for
hw,
in
white,
wheat,
whale,
where,
whence,
why,
whelp,
whine,
whet,
whirl,
wharf,
wheel,
while,
whim,
=
Icel.
hvítr,
hveiti,
hvalr,
hvar,
hvaðan,
hvé,
hválpr,
hvína,
hvetja,
hvirfill,
hvarf,
hvel,
hvíld,
hvima,
etc.
