ord
When talking about words in Norwegian, you'll most often use the singular form ord (a word) or the plural form ord (words). Yes, the plural form is the same as the singular for this noun!
This is a common feature in Norwegian for many neutral-gender nouns ending in a consonant, or for those ending in -d, -t, or -n. So, you'll learn many words that don't change their form in the plural, which can be a relief for learners.
Just remember to pay attention to the context to know if you're talking about one word or many words.

Association visuelle
Imagine a scroll or a piece of paper with a single, clear 'ord' (word) written on it. Picture the word 'ord' itself, perhaps in a bold, simple font, as the central focus. You could even imagine it as a single building block, the 'ord' that builds up sentences.

Try to identify 'ord' in simple Norwegian texts. For example, if you see 'Jeg liker å lese bøker', point to each 'ord'. Then, try to use 'ord' in your own simple sentences. 'Mitt favoritt ord er ______.' (My favorite word is ______.)
