VHTV and the Chamber of Chatters

It equalls the same as 171 norwegian crowners. 171 kr. Kr means kroner. 171 norske kroner. Equalls the amount of 20 cigarettes per packet. Unbelievable price. :hugs:

Sweden is the number one snus-country, but Norway is probably a good number two :smiley:

Jeg ville valgt oppe i dalstrokji, men det er bare enkel semantikk. Smak og behag. :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

The poor translator is probably going bananas now trying to figure out Norwegian dialects. Perhaps we should stop now, before we end up in the chamber of chatters :rofl:

SjÞl er jeg plein Þstlending med dialekt pÄ grunn av inn flytting og diverse. Hadde jeg kjÞrt pÄ med ordentlig Opplands innlands dialekt fra bestemor og bestefar for eksempel sÄ ville en hver oversetter uansett verktÞy blitt overkjÞrt med damp vei vals og Þdelagt helt fullstendig. Ville gitt opp pÄ alle mulige mÄter og bare lagt seg rett ned. Uten tvil. :hugs: :hugs:

While it does vary from state to state, that’s a bit high by about 25%.

Oh shit, we’re there already. Well, if we keep going like this in Norwegian dialects, it won’t be long before a sub-topic of this topic is being created :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

On a serious note, it was just two fellow countrymen joking and exchanging pleasantries. I think you’ll all bear with us. Now let’s move on :joy: :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :joy:

To make it language wise simpler for you I have to mainly stay away from norwegian and keep it to english for simple and practical reasons for us all. But now my fellow nice countryman was unbelievably kind to me and let me speak norwegian without limits. Which is a rare thing I do here, but it was very pleasant and nice for me. :hugs: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I used a pretty special dialect related expression called vÊl sÄ det, which is a thing I use pretty often. The translation got that specific expression in itself to become well so it. Pretty straight forward. But actually I am very impressed by now at how accurate the translation from norwegian to english has developed. It has become very reqognisable for me even when I read a translation of what I write in norwegian and then into english. So that is impressive to me. It has not been like that before I can tell you. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :hugs:

The translator’s not doing too bad actually. Still it varies, like “Gjþr de nokka?” translates to “Does it do enough?”, which is not a good translation!

Should rather be something like “Does it matter?” Like “I’m her, I’m me, what’s up. something wrong that’s all, does it matter?”

Needs context. Language problems :rofl:

Especially also the opposite translation. From english to or into norwegian. That is actually more of a struggle for the translation. Because I can suddenly bring in especially sewed in specialty expressions which only applies in norwegian. Then the translator really struggles like freaking hell. Then it needs updating. I get annoyed. And irritated. What the hell is this, dude? Needs proper contextualisation. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :hugs:

Oh yes, this may be the issue behind some of the “big arguments” on the forum. Lost in translation, a rule of thumb may be to try to avoid expressions or sayings specific to one’s own language. They very rarerly tranlate well!

I know I “sin” myself sometimes when it comes to this, but anyways, maybe try to keep this in the back of your heads. I try all the time. We can have a good time here :joy:
