Regarding Hauk's criticism of the site, I have also viewed it, and
must concur. There are quite a few errors there. A bad dictionary is
much worse than no dictionary. So I advice list members to avoid this
one.

Their help in teaching people Old Norse can be nothing but applauded.
Primarily, they were taught by their parents and siblings, just as
you've been taught English. It's a living language, remember :)
