Okay, smørbrød is both singular and plural. and because a number is not specified then you assume that it's plural.
In the same way that: "I have a sheep" means one sheep
And, "I have sheep" Means more than one sheep.
Note for later, jordbær is also both singular and plural.
I just want to propose a singular word for sheep, while we're here: Shep.
Now we could say "I have sheep, I have a shep"
Just a thought.
No indefinite singular marker (en, et) or definite singular marker (-en, -et).
Say what? You used the wrong word. I do not like open sandwiches.
What is an open sandwich? Where did the word open come from?
An open, or open-faced, sandwich is a sandwich consisting of only one slice of bread with toppings on it - not two slices with a filling in-between.
When Norwegians talk of smørbrød, they usually mean the former, but when English-speakers talk of sandwiches they're usually referring to the latter.
When does ikke come before, and when after the object? Here's it's "Jeg liker ikke smørbrød", but in previous exercises it was "Jeg liker deg ikke" for example. Is it different for pronouns?
because a smørbrød is an open sandwich apparently.
A sandwich is "Sandwich" Thank you earl of sandwich for bringing your invention to the world.
