Etymology

From Russian арте́ль (artélʹ), cognate with English artel, used in Swedish since 1839.

Noun

artell n or c

  1. an artel, a cooperative, a team of workers, soldiers or prisoners in pre-communist Russia (or Finland) who share a common household
    Ofta anställer artellen en kokerska.
    Often the artel employs a [female] cook.
    Ersättning åt arbetare, som ej tillhöra artelen, betalas ur en bildad fond liksom räntor och amorteringar.

Usage notes

  • SAOB lists the word as neutral (singular definite artellet) with the plural either arteller or artell. Nordisk familjebok says "De egentliga artellen". Other texts seem to use artellen as singular definite, indicating the common gender.
  • Despite the common definition that limits the use to pre-communist Russia, some texts from the early 1930s also describe artels as a variant of collective farms.
