slott n

  1. a castle, a palace (large, grand building serving or previously serving as a residence for royalty or nobility (where fortification, if at all present, is often secondary))

    The castle is haunted
    (literally, “It ghosts [is ghostly activity] at the castle”)

Usage notes

  • For comparison, a borg is a castle serving as a fortress, implying heavier fortification and less grandeur.
  • The immediate intuition for most native speakers is probably closest to Neuschwanstein (with towers, pinnacles, etc.), similar to for castle in English.
