== The Academy's dictionaries ==
In pursuance of its goals of maintaining and strengthening the Swedish language, the Academy publishes three [[dictionary|dictionaries]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.snl.no/Svenska_Akademien|title=Svenska Akademien|author=Store norske leksikon (2005–2007)|work=Store norske leksikon|date=6 October 2017 }}</ref> The first is a one-volume [[Spelling#Spelling standards and conventions|spelling dictionary]] called ''[[Svenska Akademiens ordlista]]'' (''SAOL''), which is in its 14th edition. The second is a multi-volume dictionary (38 volumes so far), edited on principles similar to those of the ''[[Oxford English Dictionary]]'', entitled ''[[Svenska Akademiens Ordbok]]'' (''SAOB''), the first volume of which was published in 1893 and the last one in 2023.<ref>{{cite news |title=Official Swedish dictionary completed after 140 years |url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/25/official-swedish-dictionary-completed-after-140-years |access-date=26 October 2023 |work=The Guardian |agency=Agence France-Presse |date=25 October 2023}}</ref> The third is a two-volume dictionary edited at Gothenburg University and titled ''Svensk ordbok utgiven av Svenska Akademien'' ('Swedish dictionary published by the Swedish Academy'); it covers modern Swedish and includes pronunciations, etymologies etc, as well as definitions and some examples.  In addition to printed publications, all three dictionaries are also available to access free of charge online at svenska.se.

In addition to the dictionaries the Academy has also published a four-volume grammar of the Swedish language (''Svenska Akademiens grammatik'', SAG) aimed at researchers, linguists and university students among others, as well as a single-volume counterpart for those requiring something less comprehensive (''Svenska Akademiens språklära'', SAS).
