"You are eating rice."

Translation: Du spiser ris.

[Raineywhether]

Is "Du er" correct? Or is the "er" not required in Norwegian? As in, "You are". Or does "spiser" indicate the "is/are eating"?

[Kikoeta]

Spiser indicates somebody "is eating", so to say du er spiser would be like saying you are are eating. Hope this helps.

[Pirustae69]

I think that "dere" is put here as in plural or third person form. Although 'du' is correct in a simpler way.
