July 2024 - a new version of Norway's largest professional dictionary has been launched!
Version 10.16 of the Clue digital dictionary has now been launched. Almost 10,000 words and expressions have been added in the fields of law, economics and politics.
The majority of our customers use the Norwegian-English/English-Norwegian dictionary, so therefore the largest update has been made in this particular language pair. The new content you can access, depends on the type of dictionary you are using.
The software is also adapted to new operating systems. A list of these can be found on our website.
We continue the extensive work of supplementing with standardized translations from the EU in various subject areas, so that you as a user of Clue have access to Norway's most comprehensive and updated professional dictionary.
