The divergence between Danish and Norwegian has a lot of little funny subtleties. I was just reading a Danish article referring to a national crime unit called "Nationale enhed for Særlig Kriminalitet (NSK)"
The word "særlig" is rather informal in Norwegian and often has the implied meaning of "yeah, right" in English.
Therefore, that name reads to me as something like:
The National Crime Unit for You Did What Now?
Which I find both reasonable and hilarious 😆
