Fetch the full declension (nominals) or conjugation (verbs — active AND mediopassive) tables for a lemma identified by a search result's inflection handle (entry_id + word_class). Use this only when a search ran without inline forms or left a match un-expanded — a default search already returns each match's table inline. Returns Markdown plus the table as structuredContent with the shape {"result": <paradigm>} per the declared outputSchema — switch on result.category ('nominal' | 'verbal' | 'not_found') before reading the body. Content from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0).
The Wiktionary page title (the lemma) from a search result's inflection handle, e.g. 'maðr', 'kasta'.
The part-of-speech section from a search result's inflection handle, e.g. 'verb', 'noun', 'adjective'.

}Look an Old Norse word up on Wiktionary and return its senses plus full declension/conjugation tables — attested content (including the verbs' mediopassive voice), not invented. Any form of the word works; an inflected query is resolved to its lemma automatically via previously cached paradigms and the result notes the resolution. With search_language='eng' the query is an English word instead: the result lists its per-sense Old Norse equivalents (the translations block) plus their expanded entries. Returns Markdown plus the same result as structuredContent matching the declared outputSchema. Results are cached server-side; first-time queries reach the live upstream politely and calls are rate limited — on a rate-limit error, wait a few seconds and retry. Content is from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0 — attribute and share alike if republished).
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| query* | string | The word to look up, in the language search_language names. Old Norse (default): a SINGLE Old Norse word, any form — an inflected form ('mǫnnum') is resolved to its lemma ('maðr') automatically via cached paradigms, and the result says so; diacritics are optional once a paradigm is cached ('madr' and 'mathr' both find maðr, 'monnum' finds mǫnnum). English (search_language='eng'): the English word whose Old Norse equivalents you want — multiword entries like 'apple tree' work. |
| max_forms | any | Optional override for how many inflection tables to expand this call (0–12). On an uncached query each table is one politely paced upstream fetch, so high values on cold queries are slow. Omit for the server default. |
| include_forms | boolean | When true (default), each match's full declension/conjugation table is returned INLINE — usable cases/tenses (and the verbs' mediopassive voice) in ONE call, no follow-up norse_get_inflections. Set false for a cheap screen of which entries exist. Bounded by a per-search cap — use max_forms to adjust per call. For eng queries this governs the expanded Old Norse entries; the per-sense translations list itself is always returned. |
| search_language | any | Language the query word is in: 'non' (default) looks the Old Norse word up directly; 'eng' finds the Old Norse equivalents of an English word (per-sense, from Wiktionary's translation tables) and returns their full entries. Glosses are in English either way. |
