Norwegian Bokmål[edit]
Etymology 1[edit]
Possibly from a Middle Low German noun, from a verb meaning "howl, bellow" (compare German Low German bröllen). This would make it cognate to German Brüller (“joke, something funny”, literally “roarer”); English howler (“hilarious joke”, “painfully obvious mistake”) is formed the same way.
Noun[edit]
brøler m (definite singular brøleren, indefinite plural brølere, definite plural brølerne)
Etymology 2[edit]
Verb[edit]
brøler
