I've always been fascinated with Scandinavian countries and now that I've just come back to my home country (Italy) I missed those amazing places so much. People were well mannered indeed and everything seemed so well cared after! I liked Norway the best because of its diverse landscape and I decided to learn the language to come back again and be able to converse freely with natives. Thanks for making this video series!

In English we've adopted the word "farewell" to be used in the same way :)

[@dcfreak23]

Farewell wasn't adopted. It's a general Germanic word. Other Germanic languages have their own word for it. Just because you find a similar word in another language doesn't your language adopted it.

[@rach6st]

@@dcfreak23 Well it appeared in one of the Germanic languages first and was thereby adopted by the others.

Yikes! That’s a lot of ways to say goodbye. I’m glad I found this channel, though. Duolingo only taught me the “ha det” goodbye.

[@fridagylterud9491]

We Norwegians mostly just use «hade». It’s very rare that we say something else. Just «hade!» or «hade bra!»

very good video, as far I can see this language is far easier to learn than learning German, keep posting these useful videos

[@Artnotforthesakeofart]

[@TurtlosaurNO]

As a Norwegian, I really wanna shed light on something; learning variations of words is not at all important! Although, if there’s a slang version of it (like “halla”, or “hva skjer’a?”) and you plan on learning it, I’d recommend learning at least one of the normal words.

[@jacquelinevierck1658]

is norwegian a tonal language? btw really appreciate this channel 👍

[@almost_harmless]

These lessons, though simple, are teaching you one of the dialects in Norway, of which there are several. Usually though, you will not be too lost if you speak the eastern Norwegian dialect, as that permeates almost all national television and radio, so all will understand it. These lessons are mainly, in that dialect.

[@autumnday77b]

He is clearly from the Mid-Norway area, so not Eastern, but quite similar pronounciation of singular words :) If you copy the tone perfectly, Norwegians will believe you have a dialect but that doesn't matter as it is generally understandable 😉

[@TheAnimo92]

@@autumnday77b He's from Trondheim. 😊😊

[@theR0NIN]

This has me wondering about the role of accents. I just started learning Norwegian a few days ago, and I recognize some of these from the app I'm using. But some of them are pronounced differently here. I wonder how much of the pronunciation is softened/simplified when spoken in real life, compared to the supposed pronunciation given by my app, and how much may just be a difference in accent between speakers.

[@carolinacerqueira847]

It seems easier than Chinese I think I will try to learn it 😆

[@Dawn_Of_Justice]

Thanks

[@mianbilal5636]

[@ChloeDa]

People use "Hei" as a way to say goodbye because in french you say "salut" as in "hi" and to say bye in french you can also say "salut"

[@sp1ritualcr4mp]

[@borisdujmenovic8972]

3:09 Why different pronounciation?

Both are valid

[@mrsmuesli]

The bonus word reminds me to the Norwegian word for an Aed. Hjetestarter.

[@pakistanzucks]

Thx alot

[@gc16x]

So by saying "Vi sees", Vi meaning "We", does that mean that we (me and you, the person who I'm saying goodbye to) are going to kinda see each other later right? Doesnt have to be right after that? right?

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Yes you can consider "Vi sees" as a goodbye, just like "See you later"

[@oxulucozcan4923]

@@SimpleNorwegian my first thought was "we" as in "all my components". does "vi" refer to "person A and person B"; or "Person A1,A2,A3..."?

3:55 Would it be correct to say "Navnet mitt er..." instead of "mitt navn er..."? From a grammatical point of view I think it is the same, but maybe the one that is reported is more natural in the spoken language?

[@SimpleNorwegian]

You can use both 👍 The latest lesson, #32 about possession and ownership explains it

If we want to greet more than one person, should we say "hyggelig å se dere" instead of deg at the end?

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Yes, use dere for multiple people

[@lucdegreef9663]

Just a question: are you feeling better when you say ’Det går greit’ than we you use ’Det går bra’ ? In other words, is Norwegian ’greit’ less explicit than English ’great’ ? Thank you.

[@doncarlodivargas5497]

In your question, the word "greit" will mean acceptable, there is something wrong, but you cope, but in general the word "greit" means more like the OK, if my manager tell me to do something i can say "greit" without indicating there is something wrong

[@nikhilnanivdekar5208]

Hei , i have one query. In English if someone mentions thank you, we reply as " No problem, or you are welcome" what's in Norwegian? when someone says " Tusen takk" . Please suggest..

@@SimpleNorwegian Tusen takk, what's there for "Most welcome" , I mean is there any such phrase to respond Thanks very much?

Hyggelig :) at 4.25, translation must be IT WAS NICE TO MEET YOU based on your last lesson. Agree? or am I wrong?Thanks

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Hyggelig directly translated means «nice/pleasant», but in terms of greeting/saying goodbye it can be short for «nice to meet you»

[@phungquoctuan1996]

Can you teach me how to pronounce the final sound in Nowegian, sometimes i hear you speak it, but sometimes don’t. For example , Takk For Sist, I can hear your “t” sound in sist, but in “hvordan går det”, I don’t hear it.

[@mathilderondel8124]

I'm not sure, but I think that when a the "t" is at the end of a word and there's an "e" right before it, you don't pronounce it.

He said it literally means "How's it standing" so probably the "det" and "til" are suposed to be "is it"? I dont know hahaha I'm just as confused as you.
