Nevnerer

Nevnerer is a term that appears in some written Norwegian but is not part of standard Norwegian grammar. It is generally treated as nonstandard or erroneous in authoritative references for Bokmål and Nynorsk.

In standard Norwegian, the verb nevne (to mention) is conjugated in the present tense as jeg nevner, du nevner, han/hun/den nevner, vi nevner, dere nevner, de nevner. The form nevnerer does not appear in formal grammar resources and is not listed as a correct present-tense form in reputable dictionaries. The occurrence of nevnerer in texts is typically attributed to typographical error, mishearing, or confusion with other language patterns that double endings.

Possible origins include typographical mistakes such as duplicating the final -er or interference from dialect spellings or orthographic practices in nonstandard writing. In some cases, nevnerer may be encountered in informal online交流 or OCR-processed material where text has been misread or incorrectly sanitized.

Orthographically, nevnerer is not recognized as a legitimate verb form in standard Norwegian dictionaries, orthography guides, or language resources. When encountered, it is usually treated as a misspelling or misform and should be corrected to nevner in contexts that require standard grammar, or left uninflected when quoting dialectal speech with explicit notes.
