Questions & Answers about Vask forkleet med en gang keramikkurset er ferdig.
Why does the sentence start with Vask and not å vaske?
Vask is the imperative form of the verb å vaske (to wash).
In Norwegian, commands usually use the bare verb stem:
- å vaske = to wash
- Vask! = Wash!
So Vask forkleet ... means Wash the apron ...
You do not use å in commands.
Why is it forkleet and not forkle?
Forkleet is the definite form of forkle.
- et forkle = an apron
- forkleet = the apron
Norwegian often adds the definite article to the end of the noun instead of using a separate word like the.
Since forkle is a neuter noun (et noun), the definite ending is -et:
- et forkle
- forkleet
So Vask forkleet means Wash the apron, not just wash an apron.
