Learn Norwegian (2): To be and practical examples
Norway Oslo: Art performance in Oslo Opera House
This short basic lesson will teach you about the verb being and how to use it in Norwegian
“To be” in Norwegian is “å være”, the present form is “er”.
I am – Jeg er
You are – Du er
He is – Han er
She is – Hun er
It is – Det er
We are – Vi er
They are – De er
Examples of use in Norwegian language:
I am here – Jeg er her
You are kind – Du er snill
He is happy – Han er glad
She is athletic – Hun er atletisk
It is nice (weather) – Det er pent (vær)
We are friends – Vi er venner
They are friends – De er venner
Use in a sentence:
Jeg er glad fordi det er snart helg
I am happy because it is soon weekend.
Translation
fordi = because
soon = snart
helg = weekend
Now you have also learned some new Norwegian words too 
Vi snakkes,
hilsen mrBjordal
(hilsen = regards / greetings)
I like the norway country
Nice small lessons! But it’s lacks of words’ transcriptions.. Plz add it in future! )
Hmm… I do not see the problem here, please explain
Norwegian grammar is not difficult to learn! Norsk grammatikk er ikke vanskelig.
Tusen takk for lekjoner!
Am I right?
i mean, fonetic transcription
just i don’t know how to SPEAK norwegian words properly,
i.e. “snart” is it [snor't] or [znaart] or smth like that?
“Jeg er her”: how to speak this right? “Gek e he”
i.e. word “atletisk”: is it Atletisk or athlEtisk or athletIsk
and where is to accent?
sry i’m beginner in norwegian, and english isn’t my native
Det er riktig / that is correct
However; Leksjoner, you missed a “s”, probably just typing error
I´ll look into it
I am sorry for misprint! I am also a begginner in Norwegian. I am looking forward to learning more lessons.
Anyway thank you!
