"Det er nok."

Translation: That is enough.

[gonne3]

so, can you say "nok er nok" :)

[Deliciae]

Yes, that works.

[Gary_Kotka]

Har du nok NOK?

[Deliciae]

Never!

[severson31]

could someone please explain the difference between "det holder" and "det er nok"?
thanks:)

[fveldig]

They're interchangeable in most cases.

[bronzdragon]

'Nok' means 'probably' and 'enough, right?

Why doesn't this then mean 'that is probable'?

[Deliciae]

Because 'probably' is an adverb, and 'probable' is an adjective. You can't use them interchangeably.

[bronzdragon]

Right, yes, sorry. I somehow got them mixed up even when writing them out. Thanks.

[Deliciae]

No worries, our brains just want to make sense of things - even when they don't make sense. :)

[bericdondy]

Would "it's probably enough" be "det er nok nok?"

[Deliciae]

Yes, you could say that. I would probably replace one "nok" with a synonym, just to avoid the repetition, but that's not necessary.

[8KAITO8]

So, concluding from previous posts, could I say "det holder nok" and mean "it is probably enough" ?

[Deliciae]

Yes, you could.

[Pinsvein]

What's the diference between NOK the money and Enough=Nok?How do you know/hear the difference in a spoken sentence?

[Loopdeloop13]

Could this also be "It probably is"? as in a short answer response?

[Deliciae]

No, that would have to be "Det er det nok" if you wanted to use the word "nok".

For a shorter answer, just go with "trolig" or "sannsynligvis".
