Usage notes

The word "jøde" may be used in Norwegian in a fully neutral and descriptive sense, denoting a Jewish person, but is also used as a common anti-Semitic ethnic slur against Jewish people, particularly among young people; it was described as the most common insult among youth in Norway in the 2010s alongside the offensive words "homo" and "hore." Its use as an insult and ethnic slur has been linked to the impact of the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the insult is used by both non-Muslim and Muslim youth. The word is also commonly used, especially by young people, as an offensive insult against people who are not actually Jewish, based on stereotypes of Jewish people, particularly in the sense of a person regarded as greedy.
