in norwegian, theres almost no adjective left to describe someone who is black, without causing great offense to everyone
"black" is greatly offensive, "negro" is greatly offensive, "colored" is greatly offensive
the only word left is "african", but if its an american black person, or a french black person... youll have to spend time explaining this
"oh this guy - italian guy but of a heritage that has a high likelyhood of being somewhere in africa, based on his exterior appearance being consistent with that of populations along the ivory coast region - wait... what was i talking about"
