Topic lesson

Norwegian greetings and introductions

Cluster: Beginner Norwegian

This lesson targets “Norwegian greetings” with practical Norwegian you can reuse immediately. Each section is short on purpose — finish one, then practice the same patterns in Oholingo.

Core greetings (Bokmål)

hei and hallo work in most informal situations. God morgen / god dag / god kveld add politeness by time of day.

Hvordan har du det? (informal) / Hvordan har De det? (formal) opens small talk — answer with Bare bra, takk when things are fine.

Introducing yourself

Jeg heter … / Jeg kommer fra … / Jeg bor i … are high-leverage patterns. Keep subject–verb–object early; Norwegian word order grows from here.
