MOFO is a dictionary of morphemic forms of Kalaallisut (Greenlandic). It is a true morphemic dictionary: its primary purpose is not to list how words are spelt, but to record the underlying morphemic form of bases, affixes, enclitics and particles, using the morphemic notation of An Introduction to West Greenlandic (AITWG). It is not a complete dictionary of the whole language, but rather a collection of my notes on interesting morphemes, whose behaviour and/or meaning is difficult to infer from the existing dictionaries. Thus, this dictionary is first and foremost created for people who want to learn Greenlandic, rather than people who already speak the language.

• Use the Search field in the navigation bar to search for a morpheme (using the new orthography).
• Use the Advanced search tab to search for collections of morphemes with specific attributes, such as noun stems that display gemination or metathesis; verb stems of a particular valency, and much more.
• See the Documentation for an explanation of why a morphemic dictionary is better suited for learners than any of the other dictionaries available.
• See the Terminology for a quick overview of the morphemic notation and how to read the entries. However, for an in-depth explanation of these concepts, you should consult the AITWG.

Note: MOFO is currently under (re)construction. Expect sudden changes.
