To present ideas for consideration.
Contexto cultural
In Norwegian meetings, 'å legge frem forslag' is often followed by a round of 'innspill' (input) from everyone. It is rare for a proposal to be accepted exactly as it was presented without some collaborative tweaking. Norwegians value brevity. When you 'legger frem' a proposal, keep the introduction short and get straight to the 'konklusjon' (conclusion). The 'Statsbudsjettet' (National Budget) is the most famous thing 'lagt frem' every year in Norway. It is a major media event.
Use 'la frem' for stories
When telling a story about a success at work, always use 'la frem'. It sounds much more proactive than 'jeg sa' (I said).
