Hi again

below you typed

Haukr Skáneyjarjarl

Is jarjarl correct or a mis-type ?

Should it be Haukr Skáneyjarl

Hi, Pete!

If you insist. It's not correct, though :-)


> More I'm trying to create a phrase for 'xxxx, Jarl of Skane'.

Okay, that's much better. I'm pretty sure "Hawk, Earl of Skane"
would best be treated as "Haukr Skáneyjarjarl". It would depend
a bit on the time period, though, as well as the dialect.

Kveðja,
Haukur
