Noun
editslott n
- a castle, a palace (large, grand building serving or previously serving as a residence for royalty or nobility (where fortification, if at all present, is often secondary))
- a (large, grand, more or less (purportedly) castle or palace-like) manor, like for example a château
Usage notes
edit- For comparison, a borg is a castle serving as a fortress, implying heavier fortification and less grandeur.
- The immediate intuition for most native speakers is probably closest to Neuschwanstein (with towers, pinnacles, etc.), similar to for castle in English.
