Thank you Hans! It's also good for us all to know what it exactly can be: Inderster. Kind regards Reina -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- From: Hans Myhre Sent: Monday, May 8, 2017 9:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NOR] Inderst - Inderstar Normally it is used Inderst for a person. Now it is used Inderster for two persons.. Inderst is a person which are renting room and have their own household, Normally they have an occupation like shoemaker, blacksmith, carpenter and more so they are able to pay the rent. Husmand is different, I guess you know. Hans Den 08.05.2017 06:56, skrev Bev Anderson: > Is there such a term as Inderstar as a plural for Inderst?
