  • Summary

  • In this episode we're starting a new little series about small bits of helpful and useful expressions, that are common in everyday speech.

    And a very helpful way of not repeating the whole phrase in a reponse to a question, we often say f.ex. "Yes, I can" or "Yes, I do".


    Ex:

    Kan du sykle? Ja, det kan jeg.

    Vil du spise? Ja, det vil jeg.

    Sykler du til jobben? Ja det gjør jeg.


    The rule is this: kan, vil, skal, må + er/har in the question => repeat the verb in the response. All others verbs as question => put "gjør" in the response.


    Fill-ins:

    Er du glad i dag? Ja, det ... jeg.

    Kan du spille gitar? Ja, det ... jeg.

    Drikker du kaffe? Ja, det ... jeg.

    ..


    Great! Well done :)) 😊
