Questions & Answers about Feilkoden vises i appen.

Why does feilkoden end in -en?

Because -en is the definite singular ending for many masculine nouns in Norwegian.

• feilkode = an error code
• feilkoden = the error code

So instead of using a separate word like English the, Norwegian often adds the definite article to the end of the noun.

In this sentence:

• Feilkoden vises i appen = The error code is shown in the app

The same thing happens with appen:

• app = an app
• appen = the app

Is feilkoden one word because Norwegian likes compound nouns?

Yes. Norwegian very often joins related nouns into a single compound word.

Here:

• feil = error
• kode = code
• feilkode = error code

Then the definite ending is added:

• feilkoden = the error code

This is very normal in Norwegian. Where English often writes two words, Norwegian often prefers one compound word.

Why is it vises and not viser?
