Yours is a non-standard usage and you will be misunderstood if you continue to use it that way. Norm is is, Normative is ought. > Normative: pertaining to giving directives or rules > Synonyms: prescriptive

- coldtea 11mo ago>You might want to recheck the definition of normative Funny you should say that. Merriam-Webster: 1: of, relating to, or determining norms or standards 2: conforming to or based on norms 3: prescribing (see prescribe sense 1) norms
