THIS
letter
properly
consists
of
two
vowels,
different
in
sound
and
in
origin;
an
a-vowel,
an
'umlaut'
of
a,
and
nearly
related
to
it;
and
a
u-vowel,
nearly
related
to
the
letters
o,
u,
and
y:
in
modern
Danish
these
two
ö-sounds
are
still
distinguished
in
pronunciation,
the
one
being
open
almost
like
Engl.
i
before
r,
as
in
fir,
the
other
closed
like
eu
in
French
feu:
Rask
and
Petersen,
the
founders
of
the
philology
of
the
Danish
tongue,
were
the
first
to
give
separate
symbols
for
these
two
sounds;
the
first
they
marked
ö,
the
second
ø
(börn,
høre).
The
modern
Icel.
knows
only
one
sound,
answering
to
the
Danish
ö;
but
that
it
was
not
so
in
old
days
may
be
proved
from
the
vellums
and
from
the
grammarians.
Thorodd
marks
the
two
sounds
respectively
by
and
ø.
Most
of
the
vellums
are
very
loose
in
their
spelling,
marking
at
random
o,
,
au,
(?),
UNCERTAIN
ø
(oll,
ll,
aull,
arll
UNCERTAIN):
phonetically
ø
stands
exactly
in
the
same
relation
to
œ,
the
umlaut
of
ó,
as
ö
to
,
the
umlaut
of
á,
so
that
ø
and
ö
are
the
short,
œ
and
respectively
the
corresponding
long
vowels;
ø
and
œ,
ö
and
being
two
pairs
of
sounds,
just
as
are
o
ó,
u
ú;
cp.
'Goðrøði'
and
'góð
rœði,'
Skálda,
Thorodd:
in
very
old
vellums,
e.g.
the
Rb.
Cod.
1812,
the
ø
is
often
marked
eo,
thus
keomr
=
kømr,
eoxn
=
øxn
=
yxn,
geora
=
gjöra
or
gøra:
in
Norse
vellums
ø
is
often
written
œ,
e.g.
smœr
=
smjör,
confounding
the
two
sounds,
ø
and
œ.
A
few
good
vellums
keep
the
distinction
in
the
main,
not
as
Thorodd's
alphabet
does,
but
generally
by
writing
ey
for
ø
(this
must
not
be
confounded
with
the
diphthong
ey);
among
those
vellums
are
the
Cod.
Reg.
of
Sæm.
Edda,
the
Cod.
Acad.
of
the
Hkr.
(now
lost),
the
Cod.
Fris.,
the
(lost)
vellum
of
Rafns
S.
(see
Bs.
i.
pref.
lxix),
although
none
of
them
strictly
follows
the
rule;
only
a
few
Editions
(e.g.
Prof.
Unger's
Edit,
of
the
Hkr.)
have
tried
to
observe
the
distinction;
most
Editions
print
ö
throughout.
We
shall
now
try
to
give
a
list
of
the
chief
words
and
forms
which
have
the
ø.
The
chief
guide
in
doing
this
is
twofold,
the
ey
of
the
vellums
and
the
change
of
ø
into
e
or
é,
by
which
a
triple
form
arises,
ø,
ey,
and
e,
of
which
ø
and
ey,
no
doubt,
are
mere
variations:
I.
the
ø
is
either,
1.
the
umlaut
of
o;
in
the
plurals,
sønir
seynir
senir,
hnøtr
hnetr,
støðr

(sonr,

in

(Fms.

(from

þola,
monu
or
munu),
bjøggi
beyggi,
hjøggi
heyggi
(from
búa,
bjoggu,
höggva,
hjoggu):
the
presents,
kømr,
trøðr
treyðr

the
words

the

(prop.

v.l.;
hrør
and
hreyr,
heyrum
and

(p.

2.
in
the
case
of
roots
in
-vi
or
-vj,
where
both
v
and
j
struggle
for
the
umlaut,
the
result
is
an
ø;
in
this
case
even
a
radical
a
changes
into
ø
(this
was
for
the
first
time
observed
by
the
late
Danish
scholar
Lyngbye),
thus,
gørva
geyrva
gera
(from
garvian),
gørr
geyrr
gerr
(=
ready),
gørvi
gervi,
gørsemi
gersemi,
øx
eyx
ex
(Goth.
aqwisi),
sørvi
seyrvi.
This
is
esp.
freq.
in
those
roots
which
have
g
or
k
for
the
middle
consonant,
in
which
cases
the
root
vowel,
either
a
or
i,
changes
into
ø;
as
in
the
verbs
sløkva,
søkkva,
støkkva,
hrøkkva,
kløkkva,
sløngva,
høggva,
hnøggva,
þrøngva;
in
the
adjectives,
døkkr,
nøkviðr,
gløggr,
hnøggr,

similarly
with
the

the
word
rekkja
(a

is
also
spelt
reykkja,
and
even
rjukja,
Art.
(Ed.
Kölbing)
64;
vekka
and
vökvi.
Phonetically
connected
with
this
change,
but
in
a
reverse
order,
is
the
change
in
the
words
nekkverr
nökkurr
nokkurr
and
eingi
öngr
öngvan,
etc.
In
all
the
above
instances
the
ey
means
ø,
and
is
merely
substituted
for
that
sound,
and
is
accordingly
altogether
different
from
the
diphthong
ey,
see
p.
114,
col.
2,
l.
15
sqq.
3.
one
may
also
assume
an
ø
in
the
few
instances
where
jö
and
jo,
and
jo
and
y
interchange;
in
mjölk
and
mjolk
(milk),
mjok
or
mjök
and
mykill,
þjökkr
and
þykkr,
mjörkvi
and
myrkvi.
This
ø
of
the
ancient
tongue
is
the
parent
of
the
e
in
several
modern
words
and
forms,
e.g.
in
the
presents,
sefr,
kemr,
treðr,
heggr,
sekkr,
stekkr,
hrekkr;
in
the
preterites,
greri,
snéri,
réri;
the
compar.,
efri,
efstr,
helztr;
in
gera,
erindi,
frerar,
and
freðinn:
so
also
in
the
words
két,
mél,
smér;
and
in
inverse
order,
in
nokkurr,
in
öngvir,
öngvan,
öngum,
from
einginn;

Dan.

'opposite-seat,' high-seat, so called because two seats are placed opposite to one another; in ancient timbered halls the benches were placed longways, running along the walls of the halls (sec bekkr), with the two seats of honour in the middle facing one another; the northern bench facing the sun, was called öndvegi it æðra, the higher or first high-seat, the opposite or southern bench being it úæðra, the lower or second high-seat; the two high-seats were the most honoured places in the hall, and a chief guest used to be placed in the southern high-seat. In England the master and mistress sitting opposite one another at each end of the table may be a remnant of this old Scandinavian custom. The sides of the high-seat were ornamented with uprights (öndugis-súlur) carved with figures, such as a head of Thor or the like; these posts were regarded with religious reverence; many of the settlers of Iceland are said to have taken the high-seat posts with them, and when near Iceland to have thrown them over-board to drift ashore, and where they found them, there they took up their abode. When a man of rank died, the son, after all rites performed, solemnly seated himself in his father's seat, as a token of succession: in Vd. ch. 23, the sons sat not in the father's seat before they had avenged his death. B. References in illustration of this: Þorgerðr sat á tali við Þorstein bróður sinn í öndvegi, Ísl. ii. 200; var þeim Illuga ok sonum hans skipat í öndvegi, en þeim brúðguma á annat öndvegi gegnt Illuga, konur sátu a palli, 250; Guðmundr sat í öndvegi, en Þórir Helgason gagnvart honum, en konur sátu á palli, brúðr sat á miðjan pall, etc., Lv. 37; á hinn úæðra bekk gagnvert öndugi mínu (better, 'útar frá öndnginu,' v.l.), Nj. 129; þat var forn siðr í Noregi ok svá í Danmörk ok Svíþjóðu, at konungs hásæti var á miðjan langbekk í veizlustofum, sat þar dróttning til vinstri handar konungi, var þat kallat konungs öndvegi ..., annat öndvegi var á hinn úæðra pall, etc., Fms. vi. 439; af öllum hirðmönnum virði konungr mest skáld sín, þeir skipuðu annat öndvegi, Eg. 24; konungr tekr blíðliga við Hjálmari, ok skipar í öndvegi gegnt sér, Fms. iii. 79; þér mun skipat á inn óæðra bekk gegnt öndugi Rúts, Nj. 32; reis hann þá upp or rekkju ok settisk í öndvegi, Eg. 644; eta at ölkrásim ok í öndugi at senda, Akv. 36; nú skal presti bjóða ok konu hans til erfis, sitja skal hann í andvegi ok kona hans í hjá honum, N.G.L. i. 404; hann gékk í höllina ok sá þar sitja í öndugi Baldr bróður sinn, Edda 38; jarl gékk inn í stofuna, var þar fjölmenni mikit, þar sat í öndugi maðr gamall ... jarl settisk öðrum-megin gagnvart Þorgný, Ó.H. 66; hann sá mann mikinn ok vegligan í öndvegi, Glúm. 336; ef maðr verðr dauðr, þá skal arfi í öndvegi setjask, Js. 75; heim skal búanda stemna ok til húss fara ... stemni hann honum inn til andvegis, N.G.L. i. 217, 219: the saying, eigi verðr öllum í öndvegi skipað, it is not for all to sit on the high-seat, cp. Horace's non cuivis homini contingit adire Corinthum. COMPDS: öndugis-höldr, m. (Fas. ii. 261), and öndugis-maðr, m. (Fagrsk., Eg. 575, Mag. 3), the man sitting in the öndvegi opposed to the lord of the house, the king's first man, Fagrsk. ch. 219, Fas. iii. 31; in Hom. (St.) 'architriclinus', John ii. 9, is rendered by öndvegis-maðr. öndvegis-súla, u, f. the high-seat post or upright, Landn. 34, 35, 96, 261, Korm. 6, Gísl. 140, cp. Landn. 301. öndvegis-sæti, n., Gþl. 252.
