Exercises to do with your partner

Get your partner involved in your language journey!

If your partner is Norwegian, make full use of it on your language journey.

Having a Norwegian partner is incredibly helpful when learning Norwegian. The key is to get them involved and make a plan for how you can practise together. Remember, it's always about quality and consistency, not quantity.

I call it the Magical 5-minute conversation

Try to dedicate 5 mins in the morning and 5 mins in the evening to practise Norwegian, ideally at the same time every day. Don't try to make it original or unique, repetitive questions and answers will also build your confidence.

Here is a suggestion: Morning

Good morning! Did you sleep well? Do you want to use the bathroom first?

What do you want for breakfast?

How are you getting to work today?

When will you be home?

Afternoon

How was work?

What was one good thing and one bad thing that happened at work today? What do you want to have for dinner?

Do you want to watch Netflix after dinner? What do you want to watch?

Ask/Respond to these questions with your partner. After a while you will be able to expand your repertoir.
