"Du kan spise mens vi svømmer."

Translation: You can eat while we swim.

[Bronzdragon]

Isn't eating while swimming kind of awkward?

[Luke_5.1991]

"We" could very well be other people who are not "you."

[fveldig]

Clusivity. I want this in Norwegian 2.0...

[Luke_5.1991]

En dag...

[lasagnatesla]

Are there separate words for two types of clusivity? I wonder if there is a distinction in norsk?

[fveldig]

There is no disctiontion, I was just hoping that one day there would be :) That would make the sentence less ambiguous. However, context (as usual) would let you know what is meant.

[lasagnatesla]

Aah, that's good to hear, coming from a language that have distinct words for clusivity grants me relief.

[Tom642395]

Or "you" could be a shark.

[ifm2181]

Don't eat while you swim. It makes your food all soggy and it makes the pool dirty.

[MilicaCi]

This can mean both eating while swimming and eating while other people are swimming ("we")??

[Deliciae]

Yes.

[TheCriticSA]

Isnt that big chance for cramps?

[Millie6459]

Question to other native speakers of English, I really hate this sentence, I feel it should be 'whilst', but I think I say whilst all of the time instead of while (unless in past tense), what's everyone else's thoughts?

[beerzoe]

Are you British? We use 'whilst' a lot, while (ha!) American English speakers typically use 'while'. Neither is wrong, it's just regional variation.

[Millie6459]

Or... 'you can eat while we are swimming'

[Kayla-Marie17]

Ooh, rebel ;)

[Marleen858699]

I have the exactly the same sentence as the app. The apps says I am wrong.. strange!

Er det riktig å sier "You can eat while we are swimming?"
Hvorfor "Hun synger uten at noen hører det" = she sings without anyone hearing that is correct, mens "She sings without anyone hear that is incorrect?
