Hey students, so I spent way too many hours making this video for you guys. I don't have any more lessons planned at the moment, but I'll be uploading a different kind of video in the near future which you might enjoy

[@cheikhbrahimmoustafa3989]

I still have only 5 more episodes to finish you videos since you are stopping do you have any advices for me where to continue my Norwegian studies

[@parykoye4730]

All the best , 🌺🌺🍀🍀🌿🌿🌸🌸

cheikh brahim moustafa You can check if the Norwegian embassy in your country can give Norwegian classes, that’s what I am gonna do

[@cheikhbrahimmoustafa3989]

@@zzzfjord2688 i don't think so because we have a consulate here not an embassy but i will try to ask them Thank you for advice ❤

[@davidjorden2433]

cheikh brahim moustafa There is a Norwegian course on Duolingo that I am using. Although some people say that Duolingo doesn’t work well I have personally found it very useful.

[@zzzfjord2688]

I AM LITERALLY CRYING OMGGGG THE SERIE IS BACK THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@SimpleNorwegian]

😂 We almost have the same profile picture

[@zzzfjord2688]

It has been for around one month that I am learning Norwegian with the help of your videos. After each video, I write down all the words, memorize them and then I ask someone to check if I got them all right. I am now at the 21st lesson. I really want you to know how helpful you are and how much I appreciate your content. I don’t trust anyone except YOU, you are my only source (even though I sometimes use google to check what are the verbs’ from at each tense). You are a wonderful person, with great sense of humor and charisma. And I hope you’ll keep on making new content! MILLIARD TAKK KJEKEN

[@jackspencer5281]

Totally agree if you actually do it properly these lessons are so good, he’s such a good teacher I wouldn’t have been able to learn Norwegian without him x

[@vakker3289]

how is learning going

[@HarryWhittle2019]

It really helps for stuff that is more conplicated

[@EngLhag]

I was Duolinging in norsk for the last month while I followed this amazing channel and I got puzzled with Duolingo's possession exercises. Helvete! Videoen din var veldig nyttig!!! Tusen tusen tusen takk. I finally understood this. PS.: The banana thing was hilarious XD

[@nif4204]

I discovered this channel literally a week ago and was so bummed to see it had been inactive for so long! Guess I arrived at the right moment !

[@xplant933]

I love how he talks about "I like my banana", "you like your banana" without laughing and so dead serious because I would crack up 😂

[@yahyataki6994]

I've just finished the playlist after 1,5 month of learning the language, it really came in handy so as to be familiar with Norwegian! Tusen Takk!

Glad it was helpful!

[@mrdasilver]

Thank you so much for making this video! Seriously, thank you! I was picking up Norwegian so quickly it was kinda scary, until I hit the possessive pronouns part, then I became discouraged. And then this video came along and gave me the motivation I needed to keep going! Tusen takk!

[@tootikisbathhouse2093]

Norwegian is my mother tongue. But I appreciate the subtlety of your naughtiness. Consider me subscribed.

[@anazerpa6626]

Your videos motivated me to learn Norwegian. They are a solid and fun way to get started in it. I am going to continue with my learning with other sources as well but I really hope you keep making these kind of videos.

[@iradolls7457]

PLEASE!!! NOTICE MY COMMENT!!!don't stop doing your lessons. It's the best i've ever seen. Please, can you do videos about grammar. It will be very useful. It's so hard to find something about grammar. Can you make videos about all the tenses in Norwegian. And after maybe about more grammar. At least do lessons about all tenses. PLEASE! HOPE YOU WILL NOTICE MY COMMENT

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Hey you didn't have to write this comment 6 times 😂 I'm sorry but I can't promise anything. You might be surprised to know that this video took about 10 hours of work. I've thought of perhaps doing 1-2 more simple grammar videos, but they're not about verbs.

[@SANov61]

so, should I say "Boka di/Boken din" or that rule only applies with "my/mine" (Boka mi/Boken min)?

[@jaden4654]

Takk min venn

[@tomojr3674]

Jeg takker mye for disse kjempefine videoene! De har vært veldig nyttig for meg selv om jeg har lært norsk for flere år på Duolingo.

[@xplant933]

Hii, I have a little doubt: When you want to say my mother, as the word "mor" already specifies the gender of the noun, when you want to change it to the "mi ...." form, do you have to change mor? Like "Mi mora"? Thankss

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Hey Marcos, when you put the word "mor" after the possessive, it will be in it's singular indefinite form, which is simply "mor". However if you put it before the possessive, it would be in the singular definite form "mora" or "moren". So, to say "my mother" you would say one of the following: "min mor", "mi mor", "moren min", or "mora mi", depending on how you structure the sentence and whether you decide to use the masculine or feminine forms of the words.

[@xplant933]

@@SimpleNorwegian ooh okay I thought you had to put the definite form when the noun was after the possessive. Tusen takk!

This saved me, got stuck on possessives in duolingo

Does banana have a double meaning or something?? An ennuendo??

[@chriba6815]

is it possible you forgot dens/det for items in 3rd person singular?

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Ahh yeah that's true, good observation. I forgot dens as meaning "its". Not sure about det though

[@setarehkazemi933]

Oh my god you're so funny :-)

[@margueritebeck4229]

Oh, sometimes I get so confused...... for the bonus word...,... is eier also own? Takk

[@SimpleNorwegian]

Yes eier is the present tense of the verb «å eie» (to own). Jeg eier en katt = I own a cat

Sin, because it is only one banana 🍌 If it were more than one banana, it would be "De elsker bananene sine" 👍

[@MamtaRani-gz1gu]

@@SimpleNorwegian thank you

[@bobmalibaliyahmarley1551]

The word ''Cat'' which is ''Katt'' in Norwegian is often if not only a feminine word, like when talking about a cat-- it's often presented with the feminine form.

[@DeanPeterson19]

What!!!

[@tammyblack2747]

OK I know "Kari's melons" does not refer to cantelopes!!!
