"Dyr dør ute i naturen."

Translation: Animals die out in nature.

Norwegian course becomes dark from 0 to 100 real quick.

I like this one; three similar vowels that can confuse English speakers right in a row so you can really hear the difference.

[PookaGar]

Just to clarify, does ute go with dør or i naturen (or either)? As in, "Animals die out (go extinct) in nature," or "Animals (individually) die out in nature"?

Either way, I'm all bummed out now. :(

[Deliciae]

It refers to animals dying outside in nature, or outdoors if you will. To express animals going extinct in nature, we would say "Dyr dør ut i naturen".

[elilla.b]

"out there in nature" isn't a valid translation?

[setfiretothesky]

I just stumbled across the same. I guess "out there" would have needed to be "der ute" instead of just "ute" for it to be accepted.

[madrath]

In application 'the' is missing for the 'naturen'. Yet app accepts translation wiyout it.

[Deliciae]

It wouldn't be idiomatic to use the definite form in English.

[MrsSMBurns]

English would say "out in the wild" or maybe just "outside". But not "in nature"

[cwicseolfor]

It's not the most common but I've definitely heard it used, especially in British and Aussie English. In US English it sounds a bit dated but you'll find a zillion hits if you search the exact quote "out in nature" online.

[MrsSMBurns]

I've been British for 67 years, and I've literally never heard it!

Isn't this supposed to be correct too "Animal dies out in nature"?

[OsoGegenHest]

If you know someone called "Animal", I guess.

[WildSage]

Maybe they are talking about the muppet?

[ycUvuSap]

You would have "et dyr" for "an animal", or "dyret" or "dyra" for the bestemt entall of flertall, respectively.

[MarijaDruz]

I feel like learning Norwegian with Duo is kinda ruining my English skills...

[Kaiotic209519]

This implies they don't die outside if nature
