Questions & Answers about Trykktesten følger batteribyttet.

Why do both nouns end with -en and -et?

Those endings are the definite articles attached to the nouns.

• trykktest = pressure test

• trykktesten = the pressure test

• batteribytte = battery replacement / battery change
• batteribyttet = the battery replacement

In Norwegian, the is usually added to the end of the noun instead of being a separate word like in English.

Here:

• -en is the definite ending for many masculine nouns
• -et is the definite ending for many neuter nouns

So the sentence is literally structured like:

• trykktesten = the pressure test
• følger = follows
• batteribyttet = the battery replacement

Why isn’t there a separate word for the?

Because Norwegian usually marks definiteness with a suffix, not a separate article.

Compare:

• en test = a test

• testen = the test

• et bytte = a replacement / a change
• byttet = the replacement / the change

So instead of saying something like the pressure test, Norwegian often says trykktesten as one word.
