Questions & Answers about Rådgiveren kontrollerer inntektsmeldingen og beregningsgrunnlaget.
Why does rådgiveren end in -en?
Because rådgiveren is the definite singular form of rådgiver.
- rådgiver = advisor / adviser
- rådgiveren = the advisor
In Norwegian, the definite article is often added to the end of the noun instead of being a separate word. For many common-gender nouns, that ending is -en.
So:
- en rådgiver = an advisor
- rådgiveren = the advisor
Why is there no separate word for the in this sentence?
Norwegian usually puts the idea of the onto the noun itself.
So instead of writing a separate word before the noun, Norwegian often uses a suffix:
- rådgiveren = the advisor
- inntektsmeldingen = the income report / income notification
- beregningsgrunnlaget = the calculation basis
This is very normal in Norwegian. English says the advisor, but Norwegian often says the equivalent of advisor-the.
