Hey all Norwegian learners!
The language I'm teaching is not Bokmål nor Nynorsk. It's an east dialect and I don't think you will have much problem with bokmål after this. :) And everyone will understand this.
I am Norwegian, from Norway. Born and raised. I live in Oslo, with my husband and son.

Understanding spoken Norwegian is very difficult imo. Learning the basic bokmål/Oslo dialect is fairly easy, but then you go out (or watch TV) and you hear like 5+ different dialects, which in my opinion are SO different, sometimes I understand Swedish better than Norwegian dialects, lol. Also, Norwegians talk super fast and they blend together words. For example, "skal jeg" becomes "skjeg" - it's a really tough language in this regard :/
+Simon Tømte Absolutely, we do the same in french! I think a babystep approach is the best method when learning a new language and then you move on to more complicated stuff when you gained experience.
I just moved to Oslo and I cant explain how usefull are these videos for me, specially the ones about norwegian slang
Very good job Karin! :)
Ha det bra
Alberto
Thank you so much!
I love the way you present slowly then how it should...Though it's to early for me to use idiomatics...Tuden Takk!
Considering half of my family is from Haram, I should probably brush up on this if I plan to visit. Great video, slang is always confusing when trying to learn a new language, in my opinion.
This is great - I love this! It's so hard to figure this stuff out. Sometimes when I am typing with a friend in Norwegian, I hit into an American/English expression and know it won't translate literally. And have no good way of figuring out the equivalent Norwegian expression. So these expressions are really useful! Takk!
Maggie So glad to hear it :) Takk!
så utrolig gøy å høre norske uttrykk oversatt direkte - vi høres jo gale ut :)
Really enjoyed this,....good laugh!! Feels good on the tongue. Thank you stax for sharing.
Gode stuff. Jeg kom tilbake igjen og igjen. Slang lessons are not easy to find. Thanks, Karin.
Norwegian is such an interesting language, your videos really help me with pronunciation..I think or the second one, the english expression your looking for is 'what in the world'. :)
Bianca Armani You are absolutely correct :D thank you :D
great tutorial ...I've recently come to Norway...and I think this series is the best...keep going... ;-)
Tusen millioner takk karin. Very effective way to learn norwegian's expression. I hope u can do more of like this video.
Megen Aman Thank you! I hope to do it too! :)
Hi Karin, I want to know if there are proper sources to get to know some Old Norse, cause I want to know how much it varies from today's Norwegian :) I'm huge Wardruna fan and they sing in Old Norse. I'm interested in runes and Nordic Mythology as well.
Den slags vidoer er veldig kjærekommen. Språket som brukes! Elsker det :-) (Men også: elsker deg ;-) ) Takk for å være den beste læreren.
Jeg er alltid spent for å se at du har lastet opp en ny video. Takk
thanks for making this video!!! it's so good :) could u make a part 2 modern slang please?
I want to thank you for making these videos. My fiance is from Norway and your videos have really helped me to better understand the language. My fiance is beyond happy that I'm even attempting to learn the language considering all the different dialects. Is it possible you could do a video on "Love phrases" or sweet things to say to someone from Norway? 😊 Tusen takk
James! Thank for watching and for the suggestion:) great suggestion!
Love phrases :D I will write it down. Have a look at my "compliments" video in the meantime or maybe it's called "flirting" or both! maybe to can surprise your fiancé!
"å tenke koffert" is the same as thinking dirty? I always assumed that meant to be a "square" or "a4" or something to say you always go with the frow or always do what everyone else does...?
Kjempegodt Karin ! Hertlig takk!!
I laughed at the "Det bryr meg midt i ræva."
Oh god that's hilarious...
Joshua Graves It is rather rude, though, and not something one would utter in decent company.
takk for det leksen! veldig hjelpsom
ser deg på de neste lekse :)
Very useful! Thank you!
I know barely any Norwegian only a little from a small internet course but I could guess what the slang meant before you explained it.
But your channel I will watch to learn more. Norway is my adopted country :D.
Takk for nyttige uttrykk 👌
These phrases aren't slang though, they're mostly idioms, which is different from slang. Examples of modern Norwegian slang would be things like 'å ditche', 'lættis/lattis', 'grandis', 'gokk', 'serr', 'spess', 'lol', etc.
Just nitpicking, but Norwegian learners might benefit from knowing that.
what does å ditche mean?
To ditch, like to ditch someone. We've just placed an e on the end of it to make it fit in a Norwegian sentence.
Ha, so in Norway bad things go west. In America, they go south XD
Aaron Ivicevich In America the most uneducated and backwards people live in the west. In Norway I guess it's kinda like that with the west
what region of norway are you from? Is Trøndersk dialect different to regular norwegian?
Bianca Armani Hello :) YES, trønders is quite a bit different! I am trying to find a trønder to help me out. Im fron east. Near Oslo! :)
I have a question, hope somebody can help, do they understand you in Bergen or Trondheim (anywhere) if you speak the norweggian spoken in Oslo?
Forstår de meg hvis jeg snakker norsk fra Oslo i Bergen eller i Tronheim? (I guess its wrong but i started like a month ago and im trying my best)
+Prital324 ja! ikke noe problem! :)
keep on doing that i ve learned so nuch from you
Are these slang expressions compatible with Tromsø dialect?
Nikolay Shulgin Hei :) they are mostly that yes. But Im guessing they would add their dialect to the sentences. And also Im gussing Tromsø people have a lot more slang I have never heard of probably!
Norwegian Teacher - Karin okk, takk for svaret ditt! no forstår æ :)
"Rett vest" er som "went South," vanligvis brukt på engelsk. So, it really doesn't matter "where" you point. :-)
Andrew P haha, true true ;)
Norwegian Teacher - Karin "Nord og ned", or "North and down" is an expression with a similar meaning.
you are great. keep doing this.thanks :)
Hi Karin, i love you videos, just started learning. you are funny. i was wondering do you know good comedy or something popular tv shows in norwegian? thansk for taking time.
Try "Hellfjord" - it is over the top funny (but from my experience, you will need subtitles. I do, for sure :-) But it's worth it :-) )
Try "Helt Perfekt" They have a channel here on youtube with many programs.
How do you get subtitles to this " hellfjord" ?
You may have to purchase a DVD :-( (It's what I did...)
Takk! Jeg så en episode i går på youtube av hellfjord, men det var dårlig! Its kind of "dark humor". I dont enjoy this kind of commedie. Helt perfekt passer bra for meg!😄
Hei Karin, jeg bare lurte om hvis en gutt vil si til sin kompis kick her ass, må han sier ta rotta på hun da?
Takk for alle videoene dine😊
Luna Villablanca hei :) ja det kan du si :D
tusen takk
Kjempebra!! ✌️👍👌
Este video es muy bueno
Måtte smile å le litt her :D Bra video
Jeg elsker disse skitne uttrykkene! De er virkelig morsomme! XD, og jenta er virkelig sexy også! ❤🔥
haha... no, even trying you are not ugly. Thanks for the video!
Jeg er vant til å si rett og slett også Jøss! Her du sett på makan... heletida...vettu? Sånn går nå dagan.
Maybe somebody already pointed out the similarity of "hva i all verden" to "what in the world" in English as in, "What in the world are you talking about?!"
uuuh, I dont think anyone has mentioned that? That is so true!
tusen tak guys, if you think of somethig more, let me know. something popular.
i'm not sure I didn't look yet . i'll let you know when I find it . and thanks for your replies guys
nice one.
Takk!
Great video! I'm just a bit surprised at the ease with which you say all those English swear words... lol
Haha. We use many of the English swear words in norwegian as well, and then they are not actually that bad...
Like saying: shit, fuck, ass, is not worse than saying those words in norwegian...
Norwegian Teacher - Karin I agree, they're not all bad. I have a question though: is the word _pokker_ some really ugly swearing, or what? I've been watching a series on Netflix with Norwegian subtitles and that's the word they substitute for nearly EVERY expletive uttered by anyone anytime. I just wondered. Thanks a lot for the answer, by the way.
Gambiteer Lillyhammer? That show has been GREAT for working on my Norwegian since it's subtitled! I've started noticing (by S3 since my Norwegian has improved since S1) where the English subtitles are different from what they actually said. They use the word fæn a lot too.
Maggie Exactly! It's also very amusing throughout. Are you watching it on Netflix?
Gambiteer Yes! Black comedy for sure! I find it funny that Johnny listens to one Norwegian language tape and is suddenly fluent understanding Norwegian even if he never speaks it! Understanding it is the hardest part! And yep, Netflix. I've watch all of it - hoping for another season. Might do a rewatch since my Norwegian has improved since I first started watching!
Good Video:) but i didnt understand the meaning of rett og slett
:)
Karin. People in Trondheim say thing differently than where you're from?
2011sliverdude Yes they do! I am trying to find someone from Trondheim to do a video with me on dialects :)
I didn't know that! So if somebody from Trondheim says "Ja æ sa d te hu, men hu e ikke sikker på kem du e" you know what that means???
2011sliverdude Since Karin hasn't answered herself: I was born in Oslo, and I understand your quote perfectly. It means "Yes I told her so, but she isn't sure who you are".
Muchoyo In proper, written Norwegian it would go like "Ja jeg sa det til henne, men hun er ikke sikker på hvem du er".
thanks
fantastisk mer slang vær så snill
Jeg skal prøve! :)
Hah, it seems so wierd hearing a teacher swear. xD
I think the English slang equivalent of "Du er en toffel" is "you're whipped."
Eric Lodge I think so too :)
Thankz I like norsk but I don't speak who can help me
Is that a tongue ring
You cannot be ugly because you're so cute !
OMG why is it in Norwegian that you put the noun in front of the adjective ( here is pronoun instead of adjective) "tak for videoene dine" ???
you say
videoene dine, but you could also say
dine videoene. It depends on what you want to put empasis on
+Zach Johnson thank you
Also,
Dine Videoer
If the video has not been mentioned yet,
And
Videoene dine
If you are continuing a coverataion about them
Or as we say in Norway: "That can you just shit in" (det kan du bare drite i!")
Er alle kvinner søt like deg? If yes, I want to move there. :D (P.S.: Feel free to correct me. :D)
+Balázs Tóth many are ;)
"Er alle kvinner like søte som deg" is correct, but i understood what you said :)
+Norwegian Teacher - Karin haha. good to know. takk :)
Muito bom! "Tira o dedo do rabo!" Haha
ser ut at du er vakkrere i hver sin ny video..
I used 2 of these on a Norwegian person. He didn't understand.
0/2
Ramm Marx haha, that sucks. Did you pronounce it right? :/
Well, i wrote it on skype ;) lol
He's from Bergen if that helps
Bergen speaks a different dialect and Norwegian is 'strongly' dialectal in speaking, so... There you go
Yuri Teixeira Mendes Thanks, but he lived near Oslo almost his entire life, so his dialect is pretty "mixed". But nevermind, Norwegian is difficult ;)
Slothy Llama my mother tongue isn't as close as "strongly dialectal", and I found it hard, what about Norwegian?! Oh boy huahuahu
Du er søt
Haha grandma slang wtf
