Lög-réttr

Meaning of Old Norse word "lög-réttr" (or lǫg-réttr)

As defined by the Cleasby & Vigfusson Old Norse to English dictionary:

lög-réttr (lǫg-réttr)

m. a ‘law-right,’ lawful due; biskup býðr at gjalda fyrir málit sex hundruð, ok kailar biskup meir en tvá lögréttu, Bs. i. 492.

Orthography: The Cleasby & Vigfusson book used letter ö to represent the original Old Norse vowel ǫ. Therefore, lög-réttr may be more accurately written as lǫg-réttr.
