She elides the ‘e’, which makes it difficult to hear the ‘n’, but it’s there. This is how we normally pronounce these kinds of endings, going straight from ‘l’ to ‘n’.
It could be a generalisation, since a lady can really only be a woman, just as for example, a gent is a man, a lad is a boy etc... I assume they don't mean a titled Lady (wife, sister, daughter typically of a Lord)
No, that wouldn't work. The general rule is that you take the infinitive of the verb, in this case "(å) stå", and then add an -r to make the present tense: "står".
One notable exception is the verb for "to be", which goes from "(å) være" in the infinitive, to "er" in the present tense.
Ok, thanks a lot, it makes a lot more sense now, I thought the rule was to add -er. Are you being paid by duolingo? You're like super reactive every time I've got a question, which is awesome, I just wonder when you find the time to work for a paid job.
"The woman is standing in back of the chair" is wrong?? All the online dictionaries I just consulted say that "in back of" and "behind" are synonymous.
