- Lucas: Hei, Luna! Welcome back to Learn Norwegian with Fexingo. Luna: Hei, Lucas! I'm so ready. What are we learning today? Lucas: Today we're going to explore a very common verb: 'å se'. Luna: Å se. That means 'to see', right? Lucas: Exactly! 'Å se' is to see. Let's start with the present tense: 'jeg ser'. Luna: Jeg ser. I see. Lucas: Yes. Jeg ser. Can you say that? Luna: Jeg ser. Lucas: Good. Now, to ask 'do you see?', we say 'ser du?'. Luna: Ser du? Lucas: Perfect. Ser du. Let's put it in a sentence: 'Jeg ser en fugl'. Luna: Jeg ser en fugl. That means 'I see a bird'. Lucas: Right. En fugl is a bird. So 'jeg ser en fugl'. Luna: Jeg ser en fugl. That's a nice sentence. Lucas: Now, another one: 'Ser du filmen?' – 'Do you see the movie?' Luna: Ser du filmen? I see the movie? Oh, it means 'Do you see the movie?'. Lucas: Yes. 'Filmen' is 'the movie'. So 'ser du filmen'? Luna: Ser du filmen? Lucas: Let's do a little scene. Imagine we're outside and I say: 'Jeg ser en fugl. Ser du den?' Luna: I see a bird. Do you see it? Lucas: Yes. 'Den' means 'it'. So 'ser du den?' Luna: Ser du den? Lucas: Now you try: say 'I see a bird. Do you see it?' in Norwegian. Luna: Jeg ser en fugl. Ser du den? Lucas: Fantastic! You're a natural. Luna: Tusen takk! So 'å se' is really handy. Lucas: It is. Let's practice the phrases one more time. Repeat after me: 'jeg ser'. Luna: Jeg ser. Lucas: Ser du? Luna: Ser du? Lucas: Jeg ser en fugl. Luna: Jeg ser en fugl. Lucas: Ser du filmen?
