sette
Verb of the week: sette
Hei klasse!
It's Monday once again. Today's verb is "å sette", "to set". It is
quite similar in usage to the English, and should not be confused
with "å sitte", "to sit".
"sette" is a transitive verb; you "set" something somewhere.
"sitte", however, is intransitive; you just "sit".
This is an irregular verb; note the vowel change:
å sette = to set (infinitive form)
de setter = they set (present tense)
de satte = they set (past tense)
de har satt = they have set (past participle)
"de" is a pronoun meaning "they".
