parallellere

Parallellere is a Norwegian adjective form used as the comparative of parallell, meaning more parallel. It describes a greater degree of parallelism between two or more lines, surfaces, or shapes relative to a reference state. The form is created by adding the comparative suffix -ere to the stem parallell-.

In use, parallellere typically appears in technical or descriptive writing where precise comparisons of parallelism are needed. Example: “To linjer er parallellere enn før,” meaning the two lines are more parallel than before. The term can also apply to surfaces or curves that are increasingly parallel in a given context. The corresponding superlative is parallellest, used to denote the highest degree of parallelism among a set.

Parallell can function as both an adjective and a noun in Norwegian. As a noun, parallell refers to a line that is parallel to another, and the plural noun paralleller denotes multiple parallel lines. The word parallell itself derives from the Latin parallelus, via French and other languages, reflecting its geometric origin.

Parallellere is most common in written Norwegian, especially in fields such as geometry, surveying, engineering, and design, where precise comparisons of parallelism are important. In everyday language, simpler phrasing might be used, but parallellere remains the standard comparative form for the adjective parallell in formal contexts.
