gröm "demons"; gramendr "the angry gods" (quoting Zoega).

gods?)

> 11) Helheimr - death-world
> 12) Niflheimr - mist-world
> 13) Muspellheimr - debated. The 'spell' part probably

means "destruction". Cognates of this word occur in Old
Saxon 'mudspelli', 'mutspelli' and Old High German 'muspilli'
(recorded as dat.sg. muspille), referring to the end of the world.
Anthony Faulks in his edition of Gylfaginning says the first part
might be from Latin 'mundus' "world". And see Grimm's Teutonic
Mythology, vol. 3, ch. 25 "Time and the World", 808-809.

> 27) Kvasir - wine made from berries, according to Rudolf

Simek's "Dictionary of Northern Mythology", which mentions
Russian 'kvas', and a Norwegian word 'kvase'. He talks about the
practice of chewing the berries and spitting them out to help the
fermentation. So, berry-and-spittle wine. Yum.
