Translation: Who am I?

[FaeWolf]

Wow, we're already getting into the existential questions! This must be some type of record. I'm loving this course.

[yadwinder_gadari]

Or the creater of this course is a Jackie Chan fan.

[ZoltanSaghy]

I don't get this. I like Jackie Chan, can you explain please?

[bakhtiyar]

There's a Jackie Chan movie of the same name. When main character lost his memory

[TomAllide1]

The first thing i did after learing this sentence was typing it on google to see if the Norwegian version of the movie pops up. It didn't. Maybe there isn't one.

I didn't expect a philosophy class in the Norwegian section, gall.
"Who am I?!?" he screamed to the heavens.

[jesus.swag]

Er is not pronounced as are. Its pronounced ad where without "w" and faster;
as der in german without "d" (not a pun lol)

[TinyLotus]

This comment really helped me with saying er properly. Thank you!

[BenSonofLars]

I was thinking that seemed like the way to say it, but I started retraining my brain to say "Ar" like a pirate because the app pronounces it that way. Thanks for the help! So it's like "hair" without an H?

[JackWHays]

So air

[Arabella210259]

Ah finally something I can say easily
For any of my slavic comrades who may not understand what you said-basically it's just er/ер

[GrnpcFTMarkRMOwl]

I asked Moses to ask the Creator, and he just gave a very simple, two word answer.....Jeg er!

[NattKullav1]

Kven er eg? in Nynorsk.

[BokuakaIsCanon]

I cant wait to go to norway as a tourist and walk up to a norwegian person and say "Hvem er jeg" .

[TheaNorway]

That would be just confussing

[yadwinder_gadari]

Why "g" is not being pronounced here ?

[tu.8zPhLD72zzoZN]

In the Tips and notes, scroll all the way down and you will see that "jeg" is pronounced "yai" and rhymes with "guy". "g" in Norwegian can also be silent before a "j", after an "i" and sometimes an "a" or "o" and sounds like [j] (or the y in yes) before an "i"

[Deliciae]

Read the Tips & Notes.

[Arabella210259]

I don't understand the downvotes on this one. It's just asking for help. I'd love to help you buddy but I've also just started and don't speak a word of norweigan. Try watching movies/series/tv in general/music/reading news stuff like that in the language you're trying to learn. You can do it! :)

[nckiy]

i ask myself that question every god dang day

[SaadAnis]

I dont understand something, is the spelling "Jeg" or "Jag"?

[NattKullav1]

"Jag" in Swedish, "Jeg" in Dano-Norwegian (Bokmål).

[derryriver]

i realized that sometimes the letter "e" pronounced as 'ey' and 'a'. can someone explain?

[Caroline-G.]

There is a list of how to pronounce the letters here.

[NoelleJorunn]

I can't thank you enough for sharing that! I've been struggling with pronunciations myself!

[Caroline-G.]

Oh, bare hyggelig, I'm glad it helped!

[derryriver]
