- Lucas: Hei, og velkommen til episode 22 of Learn Norwegian with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. We are so happy to be back with you. Lucas, I'm a little hungry today. Lucas: Oh, perfect timing! Because today we are talking about food in Norwegian. Simple, everyday food items. Luna: Yesss. I love food. And I love learning words I can actually use. Lucas: Exactly. So let's start with something you might eat for breakfast. Bread. Luna: Bread. I love bread. Lucas: In Norwegian, bread is 'brød'. Luna: 'Brød'. Lucas: Good. A little bit of a rolled 'r' there. Brød. Luna: Brød. I think I've got it. Brød. Lucas: Perfect. And what do you put on your bread? Maybe some cheese. Luna: Oh, cheese. I love cheese. Lucas: Cheese in Norwegian is 'ost'. Luna: Ost. That's short and sweet. Ost. Lucas: Exactly. So if you want a cheese sandwich, you could say 'brød med ost'. Luna: Brød med ost. Bread with cheese. I'm getting hungry. Lucas: Me too. Now, what about something to drink? Maybe milk. Luna: Milk. Yes. In Norwegian? Lucas: Milk is 'melk'. Luna: Melk. That sounds similar to English. Lucas: It does. Melk. Try it. Luna: Melk. Lucas: Great. So now we have brød, ost, melk. What else do you eat for breakfast, Luna? Luna: Sometimes I have an egg. Lucas: Ah, egg. In Norwegian, 'egg'. Luna: Egg. That's the same! Lucas: Yes, it's spelled the same! But we pronounce it a little differently. More like 'egg' with a short vowel. Luna: Egg. Lucas: That's it. And finally, a fruit. Apple. Luna: Apple. I love apples. Lucas: Apple in Norwegian is 'eple'. Luna: Eple. That's not like English at all. Lucas: No, it's different. Eple. Say it. Luna: Eple. Lucas: Perfect. So today's words: brød, ost, melk, egg, eple. Luna: Brød, ost, melk, egg, eple. Okay, I'm going to try to make a sentence. Can I? Lucas: Of course, go ahead. Luna: Jeg vil gjerne ha brød med ost, takk. Wait, is that right? From ordering coffee? Lucas: Yes! 'Jeg vil gjerne ha' means 'I would like to have'. So 'Jeg vil gjerne ha brød med ost, takk.' Perfect. That's a great sentence. Luna: Oh, so I'm already making sentences. I love it. Lucas: And you could also say 'Jeg vil gjerne ha et eple'. Luna: Jeg vil gjerne ha et eple. I would like an apple. Lucas: Exactly. Let's do a little practice. I'll say an English word, you say the Norwegian. Ready? Luna: Ready. Lucas: Bread. Luna: Brød. Lucas: Cheese. Luna: Ost. Lucas: Milk. Luna: Melk. Lucas: Egg. Luna: Egg. Lucas: Apple. Luna: Eple. Lucas: Wow, you nailed all of them. Luna: Thanks. I'm going to go make myself a brød med ost and a glass of melk now. Lucas: That sounds good. And maybe an egg and an eple for later. Luna: Yes. Listeners, go ahead and practice these words with us. Brød, ost, melk, egg, eple. Lucas: And don't forget, you can use them with phrases from earlier episodes. 'Jeg vil gjerne ha...' or 'Jeg har...'. Luna: Right. This has been episode 22 of Learn Norwegian with Fexingo. Lucas: Thank you for joining us. Practice these words, and we will see you next time. Ha det bra! Luna: Ha det bra!
