akseptere

Norwegian Bokmål edit

Borrowed from Latin acceptāre, present active infinitive of acceptō (“take or receive willingly”), from acceptus, perfect passive participle of accipiō (“receive, accept”), derived from ad (“to, toward”) + capiō (“take”). Compare with Norwegian Bokmål aksept, English accept and French accepter. Equivalent to aksept +‎ -ere.
