The word numbers are the same as in AM 987 4to. The manuscript's Basque and Icelandic phrases are from Deen (1937:102-105). The modern Basque entries are from Basque Wikipedia and French Wikipedia. The English translations are based on the Icelandic text, which differs in some places from the Basque equivalents in the glossaries. For example sagarduna 'cider' is not synonymous with Syrdryck 'sour drink'.
