Tånga

Tånga is a term that does not have a single, widely recognized meaning. In Nordic languages, tånga can appear as a dialectal form, a toponym, or a proper name in local records. Because it is not a common noun in standard usage, citations are scarce outside regional contexts.

Linguistic context: In Swedish, the common word for seaweed is tång (with a diacritic on a). The form tånga might appear in older texts or regional dialects as an inflected variant, though it is not listed in major dictionaries.

Toponymy: A handful of small localities or farmsteads have been recorded under the name Tånga in Nordic rural areas. These places are typically small and appear in regional map sheets, parish records, or cadastral registries. Details vary by locality and period.

Cultural usage: There is no standard cultural term tånga in contemporary Swedish or Norwegian; any folkloric or historical senses are localized and not widely documented.
