In Norwegian (or rest of scandinavistan, as far as I know) we don't even use "the". Suffixes are used instead.

Fish = Fisk
The fish (single) = Fisken
The fish (plural) = Fiskene

So, is there no differentiation between "a fish" and "the fish"?

this is a relly gard thing to understand for natives of languagea without articles, "some fish" vs "this particular fish"
