A "kveder" is a person who can perform "stev," someone who has the skill of "kvede." It is a type of vocal folk music.
The words "kvad" and "å kvede" have the same origin.
A "stev" (from Old Norse "stef" meaning "fixed time," i.e., "verse that returns at regular intervals," i.e., refrain) refers particularly to two types of four-line stanzas called "gamlestev" (old stanzas) and "nystev" (new stanzas) and is considered a part of the lyrical genres. Additionally, "stev" is used synonymously with "slåtterim" (tune rhyme) or "slåttestev" (tune stanzas). The refrain in, for example, medieval ballads can also be called "stev" or "mellomsleng" (interlude) or "etterstev" (after-song) depending on its placement within the stanza.
