You might get stopped and fined by the police at a fartskontroll. You normally travel between continents by jetfart, however some might opt for ships on langfart. Moving around more locally, you'd navigate the streets at gangfart.

fartskontroll

Fartkontroll, no s. Or hastighetskontroll.

jetfart

No such word. I've never heard of it; it's not in our dictionary.

langfart

Hm? Maybe sjöfart?

gangfart

Gångfart, yes.

Mostly when talking about travel speed though, you would say "hastighet".

Fartkontroll, no s. Or hastighetskontroll

In trafikksikkerhetshåndboken, chapter 8 section 1. Also, using "s" as a binder between two nouns is grammatically allowed for any nouns.

No such word. I've never heard of it; it's not in our dictionary.

Yes it is, it's in the Norwegian Academy dictionary

Hm? Maybe sjöfart?

Wait... Oh for goodness sakes, are you Swedish? No wonder you completely missed the mark, these are all Norwegian words. Sit down before you hurt yourself.

I figured you were trying to do Swedish since the post image only mentioned Swedish.

Carry on. No need to sit or to be rude.

Sorry, just giving a swede a hard time because the opportunity presented itself. Don't worry, I love you guys. ❤️🇳🇴🇸🇪

Wait until you learn their word for "the end".

Not a very common phrase, but "slutfart" would mean "final speed", it has probably been used in some physics problem or similar.

Giggling with Polish fart.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Mostly "hastighet" in Swedish.

It's not the fart that kills, it is the smäll [pronounced similar to 'smell']

Fart=speed, Smäll=loud bang/sound of an impact/impact, hit

Can't help but wonder about the equivalent for "speed" when used by Americans to refer to an amphetamine drug.

[–] mastertigurius@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

Fort, hurtig, neseguff, turbosnus, pepper. Kjært barn har mange navn (a dear child has many names).

[–] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

I think "ladd" is slang for amphetamines, probably from "laddning" ~ "charge"
