This sentence means 'A law amendment is being discussed in the Parliament.' The order follows a typical Norwegian sentence structure.
This sentence means 'They want to propose a law amendment.' 'De vil' (They want) is followed by the verb 'forslå' (propose) and the object 'en lovendring' (a law amendment).
This sentence means 'That law amendment was a necessary one.' The subject 'Den lovendring' (That law amendment) comes first, followed by the verb 'var' (was) and the predicate 'en nødvendig' (a necessary one).
Regjeringen foreslo en viktig ___ som vil påvirke miljøet.
The sentence speaks of a proposal that will affect the environment, which aligns with 'lovendring' (legal amendment). 'lovsamling' (collection of laws) and 'lovbrudd' (breaking the law) do not fit the context. 'lovforslag' (bill/proposed law) is close but 'lovendring' (amendment to the law) is the specific outcome.
Etter lang debatt ble ___ endelig vedtatt i Stortinget.
The sentence refers to something being finally adopted after a long debate, which fits 'lovendringen' (the legal amendment). 'lovgivningen' (legislation) is too general, 'lovparagrafen' (legal paragraph) is too specific, and 'lovboken' (law book) does not fit the action.
Mange borgere demonstrerte mot den foreslåtte ___ om arbeidstid.
Citizens demonstrating against a 'proposed X about working hours' points to 'lovendringen' (the legal amendment). 'lovforslaget' (the bill/proposed law) could also fit, but 'lovendringen' implies the actual change being discussed. 'lovteksten' (law text) and 'lovbestemmelsen' (legal provision) are less suitable here.
Advokaten forklarte konsekvensene av den nye ___ for bedriften.
An attorney explaining consequences 'of the new X for the company' strongly suggests 'lovendringen' (the legal amendment). 'lovgivningen' (legislation) is too broad, and 'lovboken' (law book) or 'lovretten' (legal court) do not make sense in this context.
Det er behov for en rask ___ for å styrke personvernrettighetene.
The sentence states a need for a 'quick X to strengthen privacy rights', which perfectly aligns with 'lovendring' (legal amendment). 'lovsamling' (collection of laws) and 'lovverk' (body of law) are too general, and 'lovforskrift' (legal regulation) is a type of law, not the general concept of changing it.
Partiet kjemper for en viktig ___ som vil bedre velferdstilbudet.
A party fighting for an 'important X that will improve welfare services' means 'lovendring' (legal amendment). 'lovfesting' (codification into law) is too specific, 'lovgivning' (legislation) is too general, and 'lovparagraf' (legal paragraph) is only a part of a law.
Pay attention to the word for 'law changes'.
Listen for 'hearing process' and 'new law amendment'.
