Telling Time in Norwegian Bokmål
How to Tell the Time
In Norwegian Bokmål, the 24-hour clock is used. To tell the time, you need to know the words for the hours and minutes. Here are the words for the hours:
Norwegian Bokmål | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
null | [nʉl] | 12:00 midnight |
en | [ɛn] | 1 |
to | [tuː] | 2 |
tre | [treː] | 3 |
fire | [fiːrə] | 4 |
fem | [fɛm] | 5 |
seks | [sɛks] | 6 |
sju | [ʃʉː] | 7 |
åtte | [ɔtə] | 8 |
ni | [niː] | 9 |
ti | [tiː] | 10 |
elleve | [ɛlɛvə] | 11 |
tolv | [tɔlv] | 12:00 noon |
To express minutes, use the word "over" (past) or "på" (to) followed by the number of minutes. For example:
- klokken er fem over ni - it is five minutes past nine
- klokken er ti på halv to - it is ten minutes to one and a half (half past twelve)
Note that when telling the time in Norwegian Bokmål, the hour always comes first, followed by the minutes. Also, "på halv" (at half) is used to express "half past," as seen in the example above.
Here are some more examples:
Norwegian Bokmål | English Translation |
---|---|
klokken er ett | it is one o'clock |
klokken er tolv over ti | it is twelve minutes past ten |
klokken er halv tolv | it is half past eleven |
klokken er fem på to | it is five minutes to two |
klokken er kvart på åtte | it is a quarter to eight |
klokken er ti over elleve | it is ten minutes past eleven |

- når står du opp om morgenen? - what time do you get up in the morning?
- hvor mange timer sover du om natten? - how many hours do you sleep at night?
- hvor lang tid tar det å kjøre til byen? - how long does it take to drive to the city?
- jeg må skynde meg, jeg er allerede for sent ute - I have to hurry, I'm already late
- er klokken presis? - is the clock accurate?
Asking for the Time
Finally, here are some ways to ask someone for the time in Norwegian Bokmål:
- hva er klokka? - what time is it?
- kan du si meg hva klokka er? - can you tell me what time it is?
