If you think about it. Everything we are overly drawn to or love has some sense of comfort. We pressure people to do what we want and be who we want them to be in some fashion. It could be love me! It could be entertain me! It could be they make you feel good when they around. The list go on. Some may disagree but i think we love comfort in all things and people instead of the actual being or thing. Think about it. #deepthinker #beingdeep #human #overthinker #overfeeler #feeleverything #oneofakind #loveme #heartofgold #pure #real #overcomeandgrow https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs9jWsFHH53/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11fasa71a1jvf

Hi, I have a question about the Norwegian pronunciation of the letter "l", because sometimes I hear that it's similar to "r"; like sometimes I hear "sol" being pronounced as "sor", or "blod" as "brod" (I think it's called tjukk/tykk l), are there rules for this? Thanks :)

Hey there!! <3

“Tykk/tjukk L” appears in some Norwegian dialects (mostly northern and eastern ones), but it can be quite hard to pronounce if you haven’t been taught it from a young age, so I’d suggest sticking to the “normal” L if you find it challenging (pronouncing the “tjukk L” wrong can end up sounding very odd, and while using the “normal” L might sound “too pretty” and slightly “posh”, it’s definitely easier, and I personally think it sounds way better when you use the “normal” L as opposed to pronouncing the “tjukk L” wrong). However, here are some basic rules if you’re interested in the “tjukk L”!! c:

How: Bend your tongue up and backwards, and then quickly flick it forwards (it’s not actually and “L”-sound at all, but a retroflex sound)

When: Whenever a word with Old Norse roots was spelled with either “l” or “rð” (which is a pretty impossible rule to follow unless you’re studying Old Norse, but it’s basically 95% of modern words that has the “rd”-combo aaand some random “l”’s here and there)

- Dal, Ola, Sol, Blod- Gard, Ferdig, Hard, Jord

Never: When a word starts with “L”. 

But again, it really depends on the dialect in question!! My friend lives 20 min away from Oslo and has a veryyyy prominent “tjukk L” in her dialect, but her other friend from the western part of Oslo (the “posher” side) always uses the “normal” L.

Hi! Thanks for asking!

😝 - Do you watch any media in your target language? If so then what?

I read and follow several newspapers on Facebook both in English and French (like BBC News, NY Times, France24, Le Monde) and my tv also gets the France24 channel so sometimes I just listen to the news in France! As for Spanish, sometimes I read El Pais. For German, my knowledge of the language is too basic to read articles, so I just rejoice if i ever get to understand the whole title without looking up the words lol.

i have another question about the 'e', is the pronunciation os '-er-' as 'ær' common, for example in berg, er, etc (i always hear it as 'bærg' and 'ær'), and thanks for your blog it's super useful for learning norwegian

Thank you!! <3 I’m glad to be of help!!

Now, this is one of the more uncommon pronunciations of the letter “e” (though it still happens, it’s just not as common as the two “main pronunciations” i’ve talked about earlier) - and honestly, it annoys me too sometimes, because why can’t we just write it as “æ” when it’s pronounced like “æ” i mean come on--

ANYWAY

So, when is the written “e” pronounced like “æ”? Unfortunately, there is no absolute rule for this - but occasionally (though not always), it happens when the “e” is directly followed by two consonants, such as in these words:

“Berg” - pronounced like “bærg”“Smerte” - pronounced like “smærteh”“Sverd” - pronounced like “sværd”“Herme” - pronounced like “hærmeh”“Dverg” - pronounced like “dværg”“Kjerring” - pronounced like “kjærring”“Fjernsyn” - pronounced like “fjærnsyn”“Verre” - pronounced like “værre”

But it can also happen for no apparent reason (irregulars), such as these:

“Er” - pronounced like “ær”“Der” - pronounced like “dær”“Her” - pronounced like “hær”

Unfortunately, this is one of those cases where we simply have to memorize the correct pronunciation of each word :c
