Hi!
"I am sorry for mispelling the words Trondeheim and Trondelag."
--Well, actually, it should be TRONDHEIM, in modern Norwegian.
"From this I can confirm that "lag" is the equivalent of Moder
English "law". (rule - law)"
--That's my interpretation of 'lag'. But, maybe it has a more
specific meaning.
"If you remember, I would like to know 7th century English poem where
these words first appear."
--I don't know the poem. I have a booklet about the relationship
between Tröndelagen and my own region, and it is stated that the the
trönds are mentioned in a 7th century English poem. I don't know
which poem. I'm not an expert in Old English, but there are
undoubtedly people here that are. You should ask them for details how
to find the quotation.
