Bedeutung
Asking for someone's place of residence.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Norwegians are generally private. Asking 'Hvor bor du?' is fine, but asking 'Hvor mye koster leiligheten din?' is considered rude. In all Scandinavian countries, this is a standard, polite question used to establish social context.
Silent H
Remember that the 'h' in 'hvor' is always silent in Norwegian.
V2 Rule
Always keep the verb in the second position in questions.
