cuyr (kuyr): kuir/cuir (queer) among decolonial, anticolonial, and indigenist activists. It's associated with Portyguês (Portyguese comes from potiguaras and other indigenous groups, it's a stylish/artistic dialect or subversive sociolect), but it's open to other communities.

cúyr (kúyr): cúir × cuyr.

These new words come from a growing movement of adapting Anglo-Saxon words. An example is skeiv in Norway or kweer in East Asia.

Hei hei! 

I made a mistake and missed the post for Monday, so there was no word yesterday! So, to make up for it, I will post multiple words today, and in honor of June Pride month, and because Oslo Pride is coming up this Saturday, our words today are about people in the LGBTQ+ community. 

These are words that are still being formed and being incorporated into the Norwegian language. None of these words are considered derogatory to my knowledge, but before you use these to describe someone or speak to someone, you should ask what words they like to use to describe themselves. 

Happy Pride!
