"Vi er ikke viktige."

Translation: We are not important.

Going a bit too deep here Duolingo

[hoatiett]

Vi er veldig viktige! :(

[Sean_Roy]

Carl Sagan, er det du??

[n.gratton]

"Nine hundred years of time and space, and I've never met anyone who wasn't important before"

[ManateeOK]

Is that from Dr. Who?

[Icantchooseaname]

Yep. From the Eleventh :p

Ah, the Janteloven...

[Nehryss]

Duo teaching us important pieces of Scandinavian culture, of course!

[Eddie639598]

Nei. Alle er viktige

[mprdo]

Well, i guess the earth will likely continue spinning on it's axis with or without us. Yes, Andrew, Kitty and Michael... it is rather sad. And on to the next Bokmål exercises. :-) 4Jul18

[kubelnaby]

this is a semi-quote from janteloven. and it serves as a warning to those who feel they are "more special" than the other people

[PepsicoOfficial]

duo's reminding us of our place in the universe

[Johanna394017]

Oh man, that's kinda deep.

Came across this poem today :

A Man Said to the Universe
By Stephen Crane

A man said to the universe:
“Sir, I exist!”
“However,” replied the universe,
“The fact has not created in me
A sense of obligation.”

How overly egalitarian. 22Apr17

[leapayn]

You matter

[whoopsful]

Asides from how much I relate, is there any notable difference in pronunciation between viktige and viktig?? Or is it sorta like a context clues game?

[HazzaHarry1]

You are Duo.

[KyenViking]

Sometimes I feel like that gross teacher from Harry Potter is making the poor little Duo bird say these things about herself even though it's not true and I just want to break her free and hug her.

[Ms_World]

Speak for yourself. (I suggest therapy for low self-esteem.)

[JiaJunKoh]

The pronunciation i hear is /viktia/ ?

[AndreasWitnstein]

[vɪktɪjɛ]

[carol313062]

I just noticed that riktige and viktige are almost the same; right and important. haha

[Caroline-G.]

Well, Ed Sheeren says I'm not beautiful (as do 2 of my "friends").

[TuroTouret]

How is really pronounced "viktige"? The audio is confusing

[Wrathvoid]

To me it sounds almost like "vikteya"

[51Danielle]

"In 900 years of time and space, I've never met someone who wasn't important"

[Mruwuowo2]

Not with that attitude!

[Ms_World]

Exactly.

[T.Granger]

What is the neuter form of viktig?

[Nehryss]

It remains "viktig". The same happens with many adjectives that end in "-ig" and "-ik".

[Falketind]

Viktige - pronunciation - is g pronounced as d? Is that a rule in case of such clusters?

[JefersonF.L.]

Why the "e" at the end of "viktige"?

[learnig_by_doing]

Yes you are!

[kevedettess]

That's sad
