Trond Engen skreiv:
.... quickly in his lunchbreak and comitted several errors in the details:
A new coinage like *'hjemmere' "more at home" [...]
That is no new coinage for the language as a whole. The forms 'heimre' and 'heimste' (meaning "homer", "homest") exist in dialects.
And although I suspect the details of the digression to be of no interest to the wider audience:
The surroundings of the Grenland district in southeastern Norway consist of Innafor [...], Ovafor [...], Utafor [...], Bortafor [...],
and Nerafor [...].
'Oppafor' is probably more used than 'Ovafor'.
Being one of these places Grenland may be Hjemmafor
.... but more commonly your home is Nerafor when you are Oppafor, etc.
