Master Norwegian Numbers

Norwegian (Bokmål) has a straightforward decimal counting system, but with a few twists. The number "one" has two forms — en (common gender) and ett (neuter) — matching the gender of the noun it describes. Seven can be either sju or syv, depending on preference and dialect. Unlike its Danish cousin, Norwegian avoided the vigesimal system and uses simple, predictable compound numbers.
