- Lucas: Velkommen til Episode 20 of Learn Norwegian with Fexingo. Luna: Hei, Lucas! I'm so excited. We've learned days, weather... what's today? Lucas: Today we're going to learn the months of the year in Norwegian. The months. Luna: Oh, that's perfect. I always mix up the Norwegian names. Lucas: Let's start with the first three. Januar. Februar. Mars. Luna: Januar, februar, mars. Those sound pretty similar to English. Lucas: Exactly. Januar is January, Februar is February, Mars is March. Luna: I love that. So avril is April? Or...? Lucas: Almost. It's April. Listen: April. Luna: April. Got it. Lucas: Then we have Mai. June is Juni. July is Juli. Luna: Mai, Juni, Juli. That's easy. Lucas: Yes. And then August, September, Oktober, November, Desember. Luna: August, September, Oktober, November, Desember. So similar! Lucas: Right. Now let me ask you: Hvilken måned er det? That means 'What month is it?' Luna: Hvilken måned er det? Hmm. So if it's January, I say: Det er januar. Lucas: Perfect. Det er januar. Let's practice. Hvilken måned er det? Luna: Det er... mai? Wait, is it May? Lucas: Let's say it's May. Det er mai. Good. Luna: Okay. Hvilken måned er det? Det er mai. Lucas: You're a natural. Now let's go through all of them slowly. Repeat after me: Januar.

Imagine I ask you: Hvilken måned er det? Luna: Det er... juni. Right? Lucas: Yes. Det er juni. Now you ask me. Luna: Hvilken måned er det? Lucas: Det er desember. Because I love Christmas. Luna: Aww, that's cute. Det er desember. Lucas: Now let's tie it to weather. Remember last episode? Sol, regn, snø. So in Januar, it might be snø. Luna: Ja, det er snø i januar. And in Juli, it's sol. Lucas: Exactly. Or maybe regn. But you get the idea. So Hvilken måned er det? Det er april. And in April, maybe regn. Luna: Det er april. Det er regn. I like that.
