Wtf is that? Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 10:39, 24 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Robbie SWE: Maybe it should have been a redirect to gomorron#Swedish? DCDuring (talk) 13:30, 24 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Currently a redirect to god morgon, which is entered as Norwegian and Swedish meaning "good morning". Chances are morron is a Norwegian or Swedish word meaning "morning" (German Morgen) as a greeting. Entered by User:Mike who indicates to be native Swedish speaker.
Swedish SAOB[1] says "MORRON, se morgon." and SAOB defines "morgon" in a way that, when entered in Google Translate, makes it obvious that its meaning number 1 is "morning" as "early part of the day". --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:19, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Yes, 'morron' is a Scandinavian word for 'morning', but since when do we have redirects? That page should probably just be speedied. Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 10:13, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Nvm, I did what I should have done in the first place and created the entry. RFD retracted. My bad for being obtuse. Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 10:16, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

(didn't see that I was plinged), for what it's worth, "morron" is a colloquial form of morgon in Swedish. Saying "[M]orron!" to somebody also means good morning. --Robbie SWE (talk) 08:50, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Lack of ping was probably my fault. I thought I had worked around my failure to insert @Robbie SWE: before my first save. DCDuring (talk) 11:14, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
