Thankyou very much for this.
 
Can you please tell me the correct pronounciation for fylking and drengr.

Thanks again.

Hi Victor,

Another possibility for warrior: 'hermaðr'.  'Rekkr', listed in this
dictionary, is one of many poetic words for warrior.  'Drengr' is
used in the sagas with strong positive connotations of bravery and
gallantry, and also appears on Viking Age runestones.

band of men, small detachment:-- sveit (also means a district)
crew:-- skipverjar, skipsögn
army, host, a force:-- herr, lið, herlið, fólk
host, regiment, battle array:-- fylking
royal bodyguard, king´s men:-- drótt, hirð
