What's New in Ordbøkene

1.3.2

Feilrettinger

User reviews

Excellent

I really like this app and it is one of the few resources available that has the female gender listed for the relevant nouns (rather than a ‘common’ combined female/male gender). I wish this was also available as an norwegian/english dictionary as it is so good and again I cannot find other such dictionaries that list the female genders.

One problem is that the verb “være” will not open and causes the app to crash completely (I have not found any other words yet that cause the app to crash like this). I wrote to you directly but did not receive a reply, hence the review here. Please fix if possible as it’s an word and I would like to refer to the inflections.

Thank you for a fantastic app :-)

Det er greit

og hjelper meg å lære norsk. Takk!

Kan ikke lastes ned på nytt

Har brukt appen i noen år. Etter oppdateringen kan ikke åpne appen. Har slettet den og ville installetebpå nytt. Det er umulig. Får det ikke til. iOS 13.3.1

No longer works / Fungerer ikke lenger

None of the primary functions work, including looking up words or even sending feedback. Thankfully, the Ordbok.uib.no website works!

Best norwegian Word dictionary

IT would be great if you had a new common word every day or a list of top 1000 common words or something like most search words. That would be nice to browse the database to know what to search.
