Resumen

The aim of this article is to discuss the advances already made as well as the issues that have arisen in the process of lemmatization of Old English weak verbs on a lexical database. A list of lemmas of the second class weak verbs of Old English is compiled by using the latest version of the lexical database Nerthus, which incorporates the texts of the Dictionary of Old English Corpus. A number of issues are discussed, mainly related to queries and spelling. The conclusion insists of the ways in which the queries as defined so far should be refined.
