Rare enough to double-check
norois is uncommon French outside the top frequency list, classed as anadjective, transcribed \nɔ.ʁwa\. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "Variante de norrois.".
We couldn't generate a plausible misspelling set for norois, which points to an orthography that plays by predictable French rules. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.
Wiktionary doesn't record an etymology for this headword, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct French form is norois, spelled N-O-R-O-I-S.
