        Because there are hundreds of different dialects in Norway, and we are only learning a written form of language. One would need to spend much time in Norway to understand the different dialects. Even people living in Norway can have difficulty understanding the Norwegian from someplace other than their home area.

          If you mean "cooking" as in making food, then "Lager de mat?"

            How is the plural formed? I think this is the first time I see a noun in plural here. Thanks.

                No, because I have not unlocked them yet. I am on FOOD right now.
