معنی
To strongly dislike something or someone.
زمینه فرهنگی
Norwegians often use this phrase to express their dislike for 'skryt' (bragging). It is culturally important to remain humble. In the context of 'Friluftsliv' (outdoor life), not being able to stand littering is a very common sentiment. Punctuality is highly valued. Being late is something many Norwegians 'cannot fordra'. During the Eurovision Song Contest (Melodi Grand Prix), Norwegians love to use this phrase to discuss songs they hate.
The 'Kanke' Shortcut
Natives often contract 'kan ikke' to 'kanke'. Saying 'Jeg kanke fordra det' will make you sound very fluent.
Don't use for 'can't stand up'
If you are physically unable to stand up from a chair, use 'Jeg kan ikke stå'. 'Fordra' is only for emotions!

12 سوالNo, you will almost never see 'fordra' used without 'ikke' and 'kunne'. It's an idiomatic fossil.
Yes, but it's quite strong. It implies you really can't stand that specific behavior.
'Utstå' is slightly more formal and dramatic, but they are 95% interchangeable.
You say 'Jeg kan ikke fordra det lenger' or 'Nå orker jeg ikke mer'.
It's honest and direct. In Norway, directness is often appreciated, but use it with caution in formal settings.
Yes! It's perfect for activities you hate doing.
The past tense is 'kunne ikke fordra'. Example: 'Da jeg var liten, kunne jeg ikke fordra spinat.'
Only if you are talking about something universally disliked, like 'Jeg kan ikke fordra slurv' (I can't stand sloppiness).
No, there is no noun like 'a fordra-ness'. You would use 'aversjon' (aversion).
Yes! 'Jeg kan ikke fordra lukten av gammel røyk.'
It adds the meaning of 'ability'. You literally 'lack the ability' to endure the thing.
Technically yes, but it sounds very strange and sarcastic. Don't do it.
