    I wrote "Der er ingen historisk bevis". Why intet instead of ingen?

      So there is no -t form for historisk (and other -isk adjectives)?

        can anyone explain to me why "der er ikke historisk bevis" is wrong?

          "ikke" negates a verb while "intet" and "ingen" negate an object. You would be using "ikke" if the sentence would be something like "There isn't a / any proof."

            Either you're wrong, or Duo is wrong, 'cause det er ikke historisk bevis was accepted for me.
