      For example when you are formally introducing the cat to an undiscerning prankster

        This is what a cat owner says when someone comes to their house:)

            More seriously, is there a reason why alvorlig doesn't have a "t" (alvorligt)

              IIRC, adjectives ending in -ig don't add t to the end.

                  Why not alvorligt?

                    Adjectives ending in '-lig' do not ever receive 't'.
