Norwegian word of the month

Kvitter = twitter

Norwegian word of the month

Yes, Norse fans, on the eve of Eurovision (will Norrya beat its 2009 record vote?)
this month's word is from Dagbladet.no :

kvitthvitt.

In the context it's used (Jamaican resorts compared to Tivoli gardens) it evidently means lily-white, but in the dicos (Nk, Dk, Sk) kvitt clearly comes from French quit.

Baffling.
