- Lucas: Velkommen til Learn Norwegian with Fexingo, episode 56! I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna! Hey Lucas, I'm excited for today. What are we learning? Lucas: Today we are talking about hobbies! Words like å lese, å løpe, å se på TV. Perfect for talking about what you do in your free time. Luna: Oh nice! I love learning words I can actually use. So what's first? Lucas: First: å lese. That means 'to read'. Å lese. Luna: Å lese. To read. Got it. Lucas: Great! Now, if you want to say 'I like to read', you say: Jeg liker å lese. Luna: Jeg liker å lese. Hmm, let me try. Jeg liker å lese. Lucas: Perfect, Luna! Jeg liker å lese. You can use that all the time. Luna: Jeg liker å lese. That's a good one. What's next? Lucas: Next: å løpe. That means 'to run'. Å løpe. Luna: Å løpe. To run. I need to do more of that. Lucas: And to say 'I like to run': Jeg liker å løpe. Luna: Jeg liker å løpe. That's a bit of a mouthful but I think I got it. Lucas: You did! Jeg liker å løpe. Let's do one more: å se på TV. That means 'to watch TV'. Luna: Å se på TV. So literally 'to see on TV'? Lucas: Exactly! And to say 'I like to watch TV': Jeg liker å se på TV. Luna: Jeg liker å se på TV. Lucas, that one feels natural already. Lucas: Great! So let's review all three. I'll say them, you repeat. Å lese. Luna: Å lese. Lucas: Å løpe. Luna: Å løpe. Lucas: Å se på TV. Luna: Å se på TV. Lucas: Now let's put them in sentences. Jeg liker å lese. Luna: Jeg liker å lese. Lucas: Jeg liker å løpe. Luna: Jeg liker å løpe. Lucas: Jeg liker å se på TV. Luna: Jeg liker å se på TV. Lucas: You're a natural, Luna! Luna: Oh, stop it. But seriously, this is useful. So if someone asks me what I like to do, I can say Jeg liker å lese? Lucas: Exactly! Or you can just say Jeg liker å... and then the activity. Let's practice a mini conversation. I'll ask: Hva liker du å gjøre? That means 'What do you like to do?' Luna: Hva liker du å gjøre? Okay, I'll answer: Jeg liker å lese og jeg liker å se på TV. Lucas: Fantastic! You used 'og' for 'and'. So you said 'I like to read and I like to watch TV.' Perfect. Luna: Tusen takk! So Lucas, what about you? Hva liker du å gjøre? Lucas: Jeg liker å løpe! I love running. And I also like to read, but running is my favorite. Luna: Awesome. So we have three hobbies down. å lese, å løpe, å se på TV. Can we do a quick drill? Lucas: Sure! I'll say the English, you say the Norwegian. 'To read'. Luna: Å lese. Lucas: 'To run'. Luna: Å løpe. Lucas: 'To watch TV'. Luna: Å se på TV. Lucas: Excellent! Now, let's do a quick story. Imagine you meet a new friend at the park. They ask: Hva liker du å gjøre? You can say: Jeg liker å løpe. Luna: Jeg liker å løpe. Then maybe they say: Jeg liker også å løpe! Which means 'I also like to run'. Lucas: Yes! And then you could say: Vi kan løpe sammen! That means 'We can run together!' Luna: Oh that's cute. Vi kan løpe sammen. I like that. Lucas: So today we learned three hobby verbs: å lese, å løpe, å se på TV. And the phrase Jeg liker å... to say what you like to do. Luna: I'll be practicing these all day. Jeg liker å lese, jeg liker å løpe, jeg liker å se på TV. Lucas: And remember, you can mix and match. You don't have to say all three. Just pick your favorite. Luna: Right. Thanks, Lucas! This was a fun episode. Lucas: Thank you, Luna! And thank you for listening.
