معنی
To not speak openly about something.
زمینه فرهنگی
Norwegians value 'direkte tale' (direct speech). Using this phrase is seen as a sign of integrity, especially in leadership. In contrast to Norway, Japanese culture often prefers 'Tatemae' (public face). Using the equivalent of 'not hiding' can be seen as very bold or even rude in some social circles. American English uses 'to make no bones about it', which is similar but carries a more 'no-nonsense' or aggressive tone than the Norwegian version. German and Norwegian share the 'transparency' value. 'Keinen Hehl machen' is used in German newspapers just as frequently as 'legge skjul på' is in Norwegian ones.
Use it with 'at'
The most natural way to use this is followed by 'at' (that). E.g., 'Jeg legger ikke skjul på AT...'
Don't forget the 'på'
Leaving out 'på' is the most common mistake for learners. It's the glue of the phrase.

The 'Ingen' Variation
Use 'legger INGEN skjul på' to sound more like a native news anchor or a very confident speaker.

10 سوالTechnically no, but in 90% of cases, it is used with 'ikke' or 'ingen'. Using it positively ('Han la skjul på det') sounds a bit clinical; 'Han skjulte det' is more common for the positive sense.
No, it is exclusively for abstract things like feelings, facts, or opinions. For a car or a box, use 'å gjemme' or 'å dekke til'.
'Skjul' is the abstract concept of hiding or a simple shed. 'Skjulested' is a specific hiding place (like a secret room).
It is neutral-to-formal. It's perfect for work, news, and serious talks, but maybe too heavy for a casual chat about what to eat for dinner.
No, the preposition is strictly 'på'.
It becomes 'la ikke skjul på'. For example: 'I går la jeg ikke skjul på min mening.'
Not exactly, but 'å si det rett ut' or 'å ikke legge fingrene imellom' are more colorful alternatives.
Not necessarily. It just implies that something could have been hidden but wasn't.
Yes: 'Legger du skjul på noe?' (Are you hiding something?)
Yes, very. It's a favorite of authors like Jo Nesbø and Karl Ove Knausgård to describe character motivations.
