Introduction

The verb "to have" is an important verb in any language, and Norwegian Bokmål is no exception. In Norwegian Bokmål, the verb "å ha" is used to express possession, as well as in some idiomatic expressions. Therefore, it's important to understand its usage and conjugation correctly.

Possession

In Norwegian Bokmål, we use the verb "å ha" to indicate possession. In English, we use "have" in the same way, for example: "I have a car" or "She has a dog." Let's see how we can do the same in Norwegian Bokmål:

Norwegian Bokmål Pronunciation English
Jeg har [jæi haar] I have
Du har [du haar] You have (singular)
Han/hun/den/det har [han/hun/dehn/deht haar] He/she/it has

Å ha rett [ooh hah reht] To be right
Å ha feil [ooh hah fayl] To be wrong

Let's put these in context with a dialogue:

  • Person 1: Jeg tror jeg har rett. (I think I'm right.)
