Great again very helpful for us who study! Thank you so much. And when you use your nice and simple norwegian to explain we not only learn what you are explaining but so much more just from listening.
Well, at least this explains a sliver of the situations you'd use each word for. There are so many different examples, I can't possibly come up with them all. I'm glad you talked about using 'i' for within the city and 'på' for being in a section of the city because other sentences seem to fit this pattern too. Unless I'm mistaken, it seems like 'i' is used for bigger things, while 'på' is used for parts of the bigger whole. For example, jeg er i huset vs jeg er på kjøkkenet. When you mentioned that, it's when it clicked and I was able to see a pattern.
'På ' in my last Norwegian class was described to be used in referring to locations in higher areas. Forgot exactly the areas but they are highlands. In other lower flat areas, you'd use 'i'. You'd have to know a little geography also it seems to use 'På' properly. But Karensa would know more. Just sharing. In short, it depends on the location of the place one is referencing. Depending on its height from sea level or surrounding areas, you'd use either pa or i. If memory serves me right, the instructor mentioned that it started back in the day where the people living in the lower part of the country referred to locations of someone living higher in the mountain or valley or similar. If this is correct, those areas mentioned in this video would probably be somewhat higher areas.
HI Karense :) ,your videos are excellent and i am learning a lot daily !!! can you please make a video about when to use "hvis" and "dersom ". thank you so much for being here for us
Og hvordan er situasjonen når vi bruker verbet "å arbeide". Jeg så eksempler med "arbeider i" og "arbeider på". Kan du forklare det til meg? Vær så snill!
This decently helps but what about aside from places? When do you use it then. Like HVA HETER DET PÅ NORSK. Why can’t the “i” be used? Norwegian isn’t a place or anything. It’s a language so why can’t we use “i”
