English to afrikaans meaning of

Die woord "jotunn" (ook gespel "jotun") is 'n selfstandige naamwoord in die Oud-Noorse mitologie en dit verwys na 'n tipe reus. In die Noorse mitologie is die jotnar (meervoud van jotunn) bonatuurlike wesens wat in Jotunheim, een van die Nege Wêrelde, woon. Hulle word dikwels uitgebeeld as kragtig en dikwels vyandiggesind, maar ook soms as wys en welwillend. Die term "jotunn" word soms as "reus" vertaal, maar dit is belangrik om daarop te let dat in die Noorse mitologie, die jotnars nie noodwendig fisies groot is nie, maar eerder 'n ander soort wese of wese verteenwoordig as die gode en mense.
