TL;DR: We made a morphological database for Faroese using a system designed for an Icelandic one.

Abstract: This paper describes the adaptation of the database system developed for the Database of Icelandic Morphology (DIM) to the Faroese language and the creation of the Faroese Morphological Database using that system from lexicographical data collected for a Faroese spellchecker project.
