samstemt 30秒で
- Samstemt means being in agreement, harmonious, or unanimous, often used to describe groups, opinions, or musical instruments that are perfectly in tune.
- It comes from 'sam' (together) and 'stemme' (voice/tune), implying that multiple voices are sounding like one singular, unified note.
- The word is commonly found in news, politics, and professional settings to describe a united front or a consensus among experts or critics.
- Grammatically, it is an adjective that changes to 'samstemte' in the plural, and it is more formal than the basic word for agreeing, 'enig'.
The Norwegian adjective samstemt is a beautiful and versatile word that literally translates to being 'tuned together' or 'harmonized.' At its core, it describes a state where multiple elements—be they voices, opinions, instruments, or people—are in complete agreement or working in perfect unison. Imagine a choir where every singer hits the exact same note with the same intensity, or a political committee where every member reaches the same conclusion without dissent; both scenarios are perfectly described as being samstemte.
- Musical Roots
- The word originates from the world of music. The root 'stemme' means both 'voice' and 'to tune' an instrument. When instruments are 'samstemt,' they are perfectly in tune with one another, preventing any jarring dissonance. This musical metaphor is essential for understanding the nuance of the word in social contexts.
- Social Harmony
- In a social or professional setting, being samstemt implies more than just 'agreeing.' it suggests a collective identity or a shared vision. It is often used to describe a jury's verdict, a couple's parenting style, or a team's strategy. It conveys a sense of unity that is both intentional and aesthetically pleasing in a metaphorical sense.
- Political Unanimity
- In the Norwegian media, you will frequently hear this word in political reporting. If the 'samstemte' opposition criticizes the government, it means they are speaking with one voice, making their critique much more powerful than if they were fragmented.
Kritikerne var uvanlig samstemte i sin hyllest av den nye filmen.
In everyday Norwegian life, you might use this word to describe your relationship. A couple that is 'samstemt' when it comes to finances or child-rearing is a couple that experiences less conflict because they are 'on the same page.' The word carries a positive connotation of efficiency, peace, and shared purpose. It is a vital word for B1 learners because it allows you to move beyond simple verbs like 'si' (say) or 'mene' (mean) and describe the manner in which people interact.
Orkesteret var så samstemt at det hørtes ut som ett enkelt instrument.
Furthermore, the word is often used in the context of research and data. If multiple independent studies show the same result, researchers might describe the findings as 'samstemte.' This reinforces the idea of reliability and truth—if everyone and everything points in the same direction, the conclusion is likely solid. It is this transition from the literal musical tuning to the metaphorical alignment of ideas that makes 'samstemt' such a powerful tool in your Norwegian vocabulary.
Using samstemt correctly requires an understanding of Norwegian adjective declension. Since it is an adjective, it must agree in gender and number with the noun it describes. However, 'samstemt' is slightly unique because it is often used as a predicative adjective (after a verb like 'være' or 'bli') to describe a group of people or things.
- Singular Forms
- For masculine and feminine nouns, we use 'samstemt'. For example: 'En samstemt gruppe' (A harmonious group). For neuter nouns, we also use 'samstemt'. Example: 'Et samstemt kor' (A harmonious choir). Unlike many adjectives that add a '-t' in the neuter, 'samstemt' already ends in 't', so it remains unchanged.
- Plural and Definite Forms
- When describing multiple people or things, or when using the definite form, we add an '-e'. Example: 'De er samstemte' (They are in agreement). 'De samstemte uttalelsene' (The unanimous statements). This is the form you will likely use most often when talking about people's opinions.
Foreldrene må være samstemte når de setter grenser for barna.
One common sentence pattern is using 'samstemt' with the preposition 'om' (about). For example: 'Vi er samstemte om planen' (We are in agreement about the plan). This structure is very common in professional environments. You can also use it with 'i' (in) when referring to a specific action or opinion: 'De var samstemte i sin kritikk' (They were unanimous in their criticism).
When writing, consider the register. 'Samstemt' is more formal than 'enige.' If you are writing a report, an essay, or a formal email, 'samstemt' adds a level of sophistication. It suggests that the agreement is not just a coincidence, but a result of coordination or shared values. In spoken Norwegian, it is used frequently by politicians, commentators, and professionals to describe a collective front.
Forskerne kom med en samstemt anbefaling til regjeringen.
If you tune into Norwegian news outlets like NRK or read newspapers like Aftenposten, you will encounter samstemt almost daily. It is a favorite word for journalists describing the political landscape. When the 'Storting' (the Norwegian parliament) shows a rare moment of unity, the headlines will often scream about a 'samstemt nasjonalforsamling.' This implies that despite their differences, the parties have found a common rhythm.
- In the Workplace
- During 'allmøter' (staff meetings), a manager might say, 'Det er viktig at vi fremstår som samstemte utad.' This means it is vital that the company presents a united front to the public or clients, even if there are internal debates. It is about the image of cohesion.
- Cultural Reviews
- In the 'anmeldelser' (reviews) section of a magazine, you might see 'Et samstemt kritikerkorps.' This refers to the collective group of critics who all seem to have the same opinion about a play, book, or concert. It suggests a consensus that is hard to ignore.
Hele nabolaget var samstemte i protesten mot den nye veien.
You will also hear it in sports. A 'samstemt' defense in football (soccer) is one where the players move together, closing gaps and supporting each other perfectly. The commentator might yell, 'Forsvaret er utrolig samstemt i dag!' emphasizing the tactical discipline and mutual understanding of the players. In this context, it is synonymous with 'well-coordinated.'
Finally, in the academic world, 'samstemte resultater' are the holy grail. If your thesis findings are samstemte with previous research, it validates your work. If they are 'motstridende' (contradictory), you have more explaining to do. Therefore, whether you are in a boardroom, a stadium, or a library, 'samstemt' is the word that signals a lack of friction and a presence of shared direction.
While samstemt is a powerful word, learners often make a few specific errors. The most common mistake is using it as a direct replacement for 'enig' (agreeing) in simple, two-person conversations. While technically possible, saying 'Jeg og min venn er samstemte' sounds overly formal and almost a bit robotic for a casual chat about where to eat dinner.
- Confusing with 'Enstemmig'
- 'Enstemmig' means 'unanimous' in a voting sense (literally 'one-voiced'). While 'samstemt' can imply unanimity, it is more about harmony and alignment. Use 'enstemmig' for formal votes ('Enstemmig vedtatt') and 'samstemt' for general agreement or harmonious action.
- Adjective Agreement Errors
- Learners often forget to add the '-e' in plural contexts. Because 'samstemt' ends in 't', some think it behaves like an adverb and doesn't change. However, if you are talking about 'de' (they) or 'vi' (we), you must use 'samstemte'. Skipping this 'e' is a clear marker of a non-native speaker.
Feil: Vi er samstemt.
Riktig: Vi er samstemte.
Another mistake is using 'samstemt' to describe physical objects that match in color but not in function or 'vibe.' For example, you wouldn't usually say your socks and your tie are 'samstemte' unless you are emphasizing a deep artistic harmony. Usually, for matching clothes, you would use 'matcher' or 'passer sammen.' 'Samstemt' is reserved for more abstract or complex forms of harmony.
Finally, avoid overusing it. Because it is a 'strong' word, using it for every minor agreement can make your Norwegian sound hyperbolic. Save it for when the agreement is significant, collective, or particularly harmonious. If you just agree that the coffee is good, 'enig' is perfectly fine.
To truly master samstemt, you need to know where it sits in the landscape of Norwegian words for agreement and harmony. Depending on the context, you might want to swap it for something more specific or less formal.
- Enig vs. Samstemt
- 'Enig' is the workhorse of agreement. It's simple and direct. 'Vi er enige' (We agree). 'Samstemt' is 'enig' with a tuxedo on. It implies a deeper, more coordinated level of agreement. Use 'enig' for everyday situations and 'samstemt' for collective unity.
- Samkjørt
- This word is very close to 'samstemt' but has a more mechanical or practical feel. 'Samkjørt' (literally 'driven together') is used for teams or systems that work well together. If a relay team has perfect hand-offs, they are 'samkjørte.' If they have the same goals and philosophy, they are 'samstemte.'
- Unison
- Directly from music, 'unison' is used when people say or do exactly the same thing at the same time. 'Et unisont krav' (A unanimous demand). It is slightly more formal and more specific to the 'one voice' aspect than 'samstemt'.
Laget virket veldig samkjørt i dag, og alle spillerne var samstemte om strategien.
Other alternatives include 'harmonisk' (harmonious), which is used more for the atmosphere or aesthetic, and 'enstemmig' (unanimous), which is strictly for voting. If you want to describe things that are consistent with each other, you can use 'overensstemmende.' For example, 'overensstemmende med loven' (in accordance with the law). Knowing these nuances will prevent you from sounding repetitive and help you express exactly what kind of 'togetherness' you mean.
豆知識
The word 'stemme' in Norwegian is a 'polysemous' word, meaning it has many meanings: it means 'voice', 'vote', 'to tune', and 'to be correct' (e.g., 'Det stemmer'). 'Samstemt' pulls from the 'tuning' and 'voice' aspects to create the meaning of harmony.
発音ガイド
- Pronouncing the 'm' and 't' separately with a vowel between them.
- Making the 'e' in 'stemt' too long (it should be short like in 'set').
- Forgetting to pronounce the 't' at the end clearly.
- Stress on the second syllable instead of the first.
- Pronouncing 'sam' like the English name 'Sam' (the Norwegian 'a' is further back in the mouth).

チャレンジ
Try to use 'samstemt' in a sentence describing your favorite sports team or a group of coworkers. Focus on the plural ending '-e' if you are talking about 'they' or 'we'.
語源
The word is a compound of the prefix 'sam-' and the past participle 'stemt'. 'Sam-' comes from Old Norse 'samr', meaning 'same' or 'together'. 'Stemt' is the past participle of the verb 'å stemme', which comes from Old Norse 'stemma'.
元の意味： The original meaning of 'å stemme' in this context was to tune a musical instrument so that it matches a certain pitch or other instruments.
Germanic (Norwegian, related to German 'zustimmen' and English 'stem' in some senses, though the 'voice' meaning is specific).文化的な背景
The word is generally very positive. However, in a debate about 'ekkokamre' (echo chambers), being 'for samstemte' might be used negatively to imply a lack of critical thinking.
In English, we might use 'unanimous' or 'on the same page.' 'Samstemt' feels slightly more poetic or 'musical' than 'unanimous,' which feels legalistic.
Summary
The word 'samstemt' is your 'level-up' word for agreement. While 'enig' is fine for friends, 'samstemt' describes the powerful harmony of a team, a choir, or a scientific consensus. Example: 'De var helt samstemte i sin beslutning' (They were completely unanimous in their decision).
- Samstemt means being in agreement, harmonious, or unanimous, often used to describe groups, opinions, or musical instruments that are perfectly in tune.
- It comes from 'sam' (together) and 'stemme' (voice/tune), implying that multiple voices are sounding like one singular, unified note.
- The word is commonly found in news, politics, and professional settings to describe a united front or a consensus among experts or critics.
