selger

selger

Norwegian Bokmål

Etymology 1

Inherited from Danish sælger, from Old Norse seljari. By surface analysis, selge (“to sell”) +‎ -er. While ⟨g⟩ is always silent in the verb, compare salg (“sale”) with /ɡ/. The words selger and selgelig (“vendible”, now more usually salgbar) vary between both ways.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /sɛlːər/, /sɛlɡər/

Noun

selger m (definite singular selgeren, indefinite plural selgere, definite plural selgerne)

  1. seller, vendor, salesperson
