المعنى
Having started a project.
خلفية ثقافية
The phrase is central to the concept of 'Dugnad'. When a neighborhood meets to clean up, the leader will shout 'Da er vi i gang!' to signal that the talking is over and the work has begun. In Norwegian workplaces, 'å være i gang' is a way to signal reliability. It is better to say you are 'i gang' than to say you will 'start soon'. Norwegian sports commentators use this phrase constantly. It builds excitement at the start of a cross-country skiing race.
Use 'Endelig'
Adding 'endelig' (finally) before 'i gang' makes you sound very native when you've been procrastinating.

Remember: 'i gang' (started), 'i gangen' (in the hallway). Don't mix them up at a party!
