Questions & Answers about Filmen er veldig kort.

In Norwegian, filmen is the definite form of film. Adding -en (for masculine or feminine nouns) corresponds to saying the film in English.
What does "er" mean here?
Er is the present tense of the verb å være (to be), so it functions like "is" in English.
How is "veldig" used in Norwegian?
Veldig means "very" or "really," used to intensify an adjective. It's a common way to add emphasis, much like "very" in English.
Does "kort" change based on the noun?
When used with a singular noun, you often use kort. For plural, you might use korte, for example: kjolene er korte (the dresses are short).
