Reply to comment by andreasdagen in TIL that air is a fluid by andreasdagen

If the Norwegian word for fluid is synonymous with liquid, what is the Norwegian word for non-liquid fluidity? Surely there is a way to express this concept in that language.

gass

don't think we have a word that covers both liquid and gas like fluid does.

Fluid, it's called fluid in Norwegian as well. The word for liquid fluid is 'væske', and if you ask Google Translate what 'væske' is in Norwegian it just returns 'fluid'.
