In Norwegian (or rest of scandinavistan, as far as I know) we don't even use "the". Suffixes are used instead.
Fish = Fisk
The fish (single) = Fisken
The fish (plural) = Fiskene
So, is there no differentiation between "a fish" and "the fish"?
A fish - en fisk
The fish - fisken
English would be a lot more fun if they did the same as us.
A fish
Fisha
A man
Mana
A book
Booka.
Sounds like Final Fantasy potions/spells
this is a relly gard thing to understand for natives of languagea without articles, "some fish" vs "this particular fish"
Proud lad from Jutland here: in our dialect we do use "the" in "æ".
The fish = æ fisk
