Abstract

This study presents and analyses search strings and user data for different Swedish lexicographical websites. The underlying empirical material was sourced from two relatively new websites, www.saob.se and the joint dictionary portal www.svenska.se, which collects and provides a single point of entry to three Swedish monolingual dictionaries financed by the Swedish Academy. Statistics are presented on the most common search strings, when and where the searches take place, and what devices and digital platforms that are commonly used while visiting the sites. In addition, the study addresses a number of questions and other forms of feedback received from dictionary users. Furthermore, the study provides suggestions and examples
of how the collected data can be utilised in upcoming updates and revisions of the dictionaries.
