[3] In 2011 the dictionary was awarded the Prix Honoré Chavée by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres in France.
[4] The Anglo-Norman dictionary project started in the 1940s and the First Edition was published in fascicles between 1977 and 1992 by the Modern Humanities Research Association (MHRA).
[7] Funded by several Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) grants since 2003,[8] the revision (Second Edition) of the Anglo-Norman Dictionary remains a continuing project, gradually replacing online sections of the alphabet with updated versions.
The results are published by Aberystwyth University in yearly or biyearly sections of one letter of the alphabet at the time.
[10] The nature and scope of the Second Edition has expanded over the years, with a much greater level of detail in individual entries and an increasing number of Anglo-Norman source texts now included.
