Bedeutung
Asking for the fare price.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Public transport is often zone-based. When you ask 'Hvor mye koster billetten?', the answer might depend on how many zones you cross. It is significantly cheaper to buy tickets in an app or at a machine than from the driver on a bus. The 'Honnør' discount is for those over 67 or on disability benefits. Always ask if you qualify! Night buses (nattbuss) often have a different, higher price than daytime transport.
Use the App
Always check the Ruter or Vy app first; the price is usually lower than asking in person.
Don't forget the '-en'
Saying 'Hvor mye koster billett' sounds like 'How much costs ticket'. Always use 'billetten'.
