"Hardanger" meaning in Norwegian Nynorsk

See Hardanger in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

Etymology: From Old Norse Harðangr, traditionally believed to be related to hǫrðar (“Harudes”); from Proto-Norse *Harudangraʀ, from Proto-Germanic *harudōz m pl (“Harudes”) + *angraz (“fjord”). The reason for the -a-, as opposed to the -ǫ- in hǫrðar, is said to come from a different placement of the stress, causing an earlier syncope of the -u- than in the other word. It therefore did not yield a u-umlaut. It has also been suggested that the fjord name may derive from *hardaz (“hard”) instead of *harudōz, due to the location of the fjord being outside the original area of the Harudes (Hordaland). This may better explain the -a- than relying on the absence of an expected u-umlaut.
