Questions & Answers about Vores soveværelse er lille.
Why is the adjective lille used without a -t ending when soveværelse is an et word?
The adjective lille (small) is irregular. Unlike most adjectives in Danish, it does not add a -t when describing an et word (a neuter noun). You use lille for both en and et words in the singular.
Does the word vores change depending on the gender of the noun?
No, vores (our) is very simple because it never changes form. While other possessive words like my (min/mit/mine) change depending on whether the noun is an en word, an et word, or plural, vores stays exactly the same.
How is the noun soveværelse put together?
It is a compound noun made by combining the infinitive verb sove (to sleep) and the noun værelse (room). Danish frequently glues words together like this to create new nouns.
