What’s the difference between “sort” & “svart” I understood it was both Norwegian for black. But duolingo didn’t accepted sort. So now I’m wondering what’s the difference between the two.

  1. r/norsk is the language sub.

    Both (svart or sort) are correct IMO.

  2. They are the same. But duolingo often have only one answer. Svart is most common.

  3. Both are correct, but sort can also mean the English sort (as in a type, a kind)

  4. Du bruker kun sort hvis man snakker om huden på mennesker.
