The hardest part of learning Norwegian? Listening comprehension usually lags behind your other skills. Native speakers talk fast, words blur together, and audio-only content leaves you guessing.

That's why we've launched the Daily Norwegian Essay Series - weekly essay subscriptions that combine written text with native audio recordings. See the words while hearing them. Build vocabulary systematically. Practice with real topics that matter.

Choose your level:

• Intermediate Norwegian: Cultural stories and everyday life
• Business Norwegian Advanced: Boardroom meetings and professional scenarios

Each essay includes:

✓ Native speaker audio with crystal-clear pronunciation

✓ Essential vocabulary with translations

✓ Comprehension questions and full solutions

✓ Permanent archive access to all previous essays

✓ Audio snippets for key vocabulary practice

The topics and vocabulary comes from 14 years of teaching and over 8,000 one-on-one lessons with people from all walks of life, and with business professionals at e.g. Google, Kongsberg Gruppen, McKinsey & Co, several independent Business Consultancies, JP Morgan, BBC, Halliburton and other companies across the globe.

Just $6/month gets you 4-5 complete essays with mini-podcasts. Cancel anytime.

In this episode we're starting a new little series about small bits of helpful and useful expressions, that are common in everyday speech.

And a very helpful way of not repeating the whole phrase in a reponse to a question, we often say f.ex. "Yes, I can" or "Yes, I do".

Ex:

Kan du sykle? Ja, det kan jeg.

Vil du spise? Ja, det vil jeg.

Sykler du til jobben? Ja det gjør jeg.

The rule is this: kan, vil, skal, må + er/har in the question => repeat the verb in the response. All others verbs as question => put "gjør" in the response.

Fill-ins:

Er du glad i dag? Ja, det ... jeg.

Kan du spille gitar? Ja, det ... jeg.

Drikker du kaffe? Ja, det ... jeg.

..

Great! Well done :)) 😊

In this episode we'll read further about the starving writer/artist in old Kristiania in the late 18 hundreds - and his venturing out into the streets.
