fjellet

Usage notes
Although the word is in its singular form, it may often be translated as a plural depending on context. Hence, a sentence like "på fjellet" can mean "on the mountain" or "in the mountains". The reason of it can be the fossilized case ending -e interpreted as -et (compare ). Otherwise, it can be a result of influence from plural forms from Riksmål and Danish.
