Breakdown of Fullmakten endrer ikke møteretten.
Questions & Answers about Fullmakten endrer ikke møteretten.
Because both nouns are in the definite singular form.
In Norwegian, instead of using a separate word like the, you very often add the definiteness to the end of the noun:
- en fullmakt = a power of attorney / an authorization
fullmakten = the power of attorney / the authorization
- en møterett = a right to attend meetings
- møteretten = the right to attend meetings
So:
- Fullmakten = the proxy / the authorization
- møteretten = the meeting right / the right to attend the meeting(s)
This is one of the first big differences from English.
Fullmakt is a legal or formal word meaning something like:
- authorization
- power of attorney
- proxy authority
The exact English translation depends on context.
In business, legal, or organizational contexts, fullmakt often means that one person has authority to act on behalf of another person. So fullmakten here is probably referring to that authorization itself, not the person.
