"Nebbete" is a Norwegian adjective that describes a person who is a bit snarky, sassy, or has a tendency to make sarcastic or pointed remarks, often because the person is slightly bitter or sour. The word derives from "nebb", which means beak. Similar to a bird's beak, the person uses their words to peck at others.
Other words that could be used to describe a nebbete person:
Snarky: Making short and often spiteful remarks.
Sassy: Showing a confident and disrespectful attitude.
Sarcastic: Using irony to mock or convey contempt.
Bitter: Feeling angry or resentful.
