    The Norwegian language has two verbs for "move".

    If you're stepping aside, adjusting your position, moving your mouse cursor somewhere, or moving to a new town, that's "flytte".

    If you're walking, waving your hand, shaking your mouse cursor, working out, dancing or having sex, that's "bevege".

    The distinction is between single/targeted motion versus continuous/general motion, and both can be applied to any living or dead object, just like "move" itself.
