Is there an order of prepositions?

Post by ChiChi »

I'm a bit confused. Why is "down there" in Norwegian "der nede" and not "nede der?"

Is there a reason why der is first? Is it always like this?

just the way it is, and yeah it's always like that.

  • down here: her nede.
  • up there: der oppe.
  • over there: der borte.

they also aren't prepositions but adverbs denoting location.
