- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Norwegian with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna! Episode 142, can you believe it? Lucas: I know. And we've covered so many verbs. Reading, hearing, waiting... Luna: Right, in episode 141 we did 'å lese' – to read. Today we're doing something close: 'å skrive' – to write. Lucas: Exactly. A perfect follow-up. So, 'å skrive'. Let's hear it: å skrive. Luna: Å skrive. Lucas: Good. Now let's put it in the present tense: 'jeg skriver' – I write, or I am writing. Luna: Jeg skriver. Lucas: Perfect. So if someone asks what you're doing, you can say 'jeg skriver'. Let's practice a question: 'hva skriver du?' – what are you writing? Luna: Hva skriver du? Hmm, let me try. Hva skriver du? Lucas: Exactly right. And a possible answer: 'jeg skriver en e-post' – I'm writing an email. Luna: Jeg skriver en e-post. That's useful. Or 'jeg skriver et brev' – I'm writing a letter. Lucas: Yes! 'Et brev' – a letter. So 'jeg skriver et brev'. Say it with me: jeg skriver et brev. Luna: Jeg skriver et brev. Lucas: And another handy phrase: 'kan du skrive?' – can you write? Luna: Kan du skrive? Like asking someone if they can write something down. Lucas: Exactly. Let's put it all in a little scene. Imagine you're at a café, and your friend asks, 'Hva skriver du?' Luna: Oh, I'd say 'Jeg skriver en e-post'. Lucas: Perfect. And then your friend might say, 'Kan du skrive en e-post til meg også?' – can you write an email for me too? Luna: Right. So 'å skrive' is really handy. Let me practice all of them once: å skrive, jeg skriver, hva skriver du?, jeg skriver en e-post, jeg skriver et brev, kan du skrive? Lucas: Flawless. You've got it.
