20 first numbers, very easy

The first 20 numbers in norwegian are not very difficult to learn. After I learned them I had the capacity of telling the time. I will explain that in a later post.

They are in order:

null

0

en

1

to

2

tre

3

fire

4

fem

5

seks

6

syv

7

åtte

8

ni

9

ti

10

elleve

11

tolv

12

tretten

13

fjorten

14

femten

15

seksten

16

sytten

17

atten

18

nitten

19

tyve

20

Again, the best way to learn this numbers is by repetition. Nothing like listening repeatedly to them. I don´t have an audio file for this, if someone have one, please tell me!

Velkomme oh mighty link ! While looking for some info and tired of listening to a woman saying repeatedly " Ja, Nai, Velkommen, Hyggelig a treffe deg... " I found this page that have REALLY good information for begginers: Norwegian for Begginers I have to confess that I think I arrived at this link putting on Google " Norwegian for dummies " :D So ashame of myself, but I think I found the GREATEST place for norwegian dummies like me :D Like a scholl teacher, the page showed me that the verb "to be" it´s so easy that you can be ROFL for a while after beeing in front of a monitor trying to learn how to say a simple phrase like: "I am Adrian" Jeg er Adrian er... er... That´s the verb. So I can learn Jeg (I), Du (You), Han(He), Hun(She), Det(It), Vi(We), Dere(You), De(They) and start to use them on simple phrases: Jeg er Adrian, Dere er leser bloget. (That´s a Tarzan way of saying: I am Adrian, you all are reading this blog. :D) How do you pronounce

Right know it´s 10:10 at night, or "ti over ti", as you prefer... I have a few days memorizing the way to say the time in norwegian. I repeat the time in norsk every time I put my eyes in my watch. Right now I´m very proud that I can tell the hour in norsk when speaking to someone (the pronunciation is very very easy and kind of catchy, but right now I don´t have any audio to show you) The only really bad thing is to see the face of every person that hear me saying, for example: "kvart over halv fire", but well, i have to learn to live with that meanwhile i´m here in this side of the world :) It really becomes very easy to do when you remember to do it constantly. Basically, you have to follow this process to whatever hour you like to say: 01:00 - klokken et 01:05 - fem over et 01:10 - ti over et 01:15 - kvart over et 01:20 - ti på halv to 01:25 - fem på halv to 01:30 - halv to 01:35 - fem over halv to 01:40 - ti over halv to 01:45 - kvart på to 01:50 - ti på to

Start asking

Start asking questions to people everywhere, but please do it in norsk :D You can use: Hva = What Hvem = Who Hvor = Where Hvordan = How Hvorfor = Why Hva heter du? (What´s your name?) Hva gjøre du? (What do you do?) Hvem er han? (Who is him?) Hvor er glasset? (Where are the glasses?) Hvordan kan jeg kjøre en bil? (How can I drive a car?) Hvorfor leser du boket? (Why do you read the book?) Those are my first selfmade questions in norsk. I hope I made them well, if you know norsk and see a mistake please tell me!!
