Questions & Answers about Vinden blåser sterkere i kveld.

Why does it say Vinden with -en at the end? Can’t I just say vind?

Vinden means the wind. In Norwegian, the definite article is usually a suffix on the noun: vind (wind) → vinden (the wind). As a general weather statement, Norwegians often use the dummy subject det: Det blåser (It’s windy). Saying bare vind as the subject is not idiomatic; you’d use vinden if you want to talk about the (specific/current) wind, or use det for the general weather.

Can I say Det blåser sterkere i kveld instead? Is it more natural?

Yes. Det blåser sterkere i kveld is very natural and is the default way to talk about wind as weather. Vinden blåser… is fine too, just a bit more literal/thing-focused.

Why is it sterkere and not mer sterkt?

Comparatives of many short adjectives are formed with -ere, not with mer. Sterk → sterkere → sterkest. You’d use mer with many longer adjectives (e.g., interessant → mer interessant). Here, mer sterkt sounds odd.

Is sterkere an adjective or an adverb here?
