GRAMMATIKK (Grammar):
Nouns are words that refer to people, objects, places, and
concepts (a mom, a table, a city, an age). In Norwegian, nouns
have grammatical gender: masculine, feminine, or neuter. There
isn't a good way of guessing which gender a noun will be, so it's
best to learn the genders of nouns as you learn the nouns
themselves. As you will see in the chart below, nouns of all
three genders can be indefinite or definite, singular or plural.
GENDER IND. SING. DEF.SING. IND. PLURAL DEF. PLURAL
_________________________________________________________________
Masculine EN penn pennEN pennER pennENE
(a pen) (the pen) (pens) (the pens)
Feminine EI bok bokA bøkER bøkENE
(a book) (the book) (books) (the books)
Neuter ET hotell hotellET hotellER hotellENE
(a hotel) (the hotel) (hotels) (the hotels)
The indefinite form is used when a noun is first introduced in a
text. The definite form is used when the noun occurs again in the
same text. In English, the definite form is expressed by having
"the" in front of the noun. In Norwegian, the definite form is
expressed by adding an ending to the noun.
Use of Indefinite --> Use of Definite
Singular: Jeg har EI BOK. BOKA er på norsk.
(I have A BOOK.) (THE BOOK is in Norwegian.)
Plural: Jeg har to PENNER. PENNENE kostet 20 kroner.
(I have two PENS.) (THE PENS cost 20 crowns.)

BOKHJØRNET (Book Corner):
In the book corner, we will be reviewing all types of Norwegian
materials for language learners, such as textbooks, self-study
books, phrase books, dictionaries, videos, audio books, and
literary anthologies. In Saturday's NorWord sending, you will
