NORWEGIAN:
Ratatosk er ifølge norrøn mytologi et ekorn som holder til i
livstreet Yggdrasil. Der bringer det nyheter og sladder mellom
ørnen Vidofnir, som sitter i toppen av Yggdrasil, og ormen Nidhogg
som ligger og gnager på roten.
I Grimnesmål, vers 32, er Ratatosk omtalt:
Ratatoskr heitir ikorni,
er renna skal at aski Yggdrasils;
arnar orð hann skal ofan bera ok segia Niðhöggvi niðr.
