The latest revision was 12 years ago, and the current revision places a significant emphasis on promoting gender equality and gender neutrality in the Danish language. Editors reviewed all words ending in “-man”, “-woman”, and “-person”, with the aim of creating gender-neutral counterparts where necessary. Additionally, the examples within the dictionary were scrutinized to eliminate any gender stereotypes (phrases like “the girls fooled around” and “he is accused of manslaughter”).
- The new edition is set to be available in print and digitally by the end of 2024.
