معنی
Confessing complete ignorance about a topic.
زمینه فرهنگی
Norwegians value 'likhet' (equality). Admitting you don't know something is a way to stay on the same level as your conversation partner. In fishing communities, 'peiling' is still used in its literal sense. Using the idiom there connects you to centuries of history. Norwegian offices are flat. It's common for a junior employee to say 'Jeg har ikke peiling' to a senior manager without it being seen as rude. Younger Norwegians often shorten it to just 'Ikke peiling' or use 'null peiling' to sound more emphatic.
Use 'Null' for emphasis
If you want to sound really native, say 'Jeg har null peiling'. It shows you are 100% clueless.
Watch the preposition
Always use 'på'. Never use 'om' or 'over' with peiling.

5 سوالNot exactly. It's informal/casual, but widely used by all age groups and in most social settings.
Yes, if the atmosphere is casual. If it's a very formal meeting, stick to 'Jeg vet ikke'.
They are interchangeable. 'Snøring' is perhaps slightly more common in certain dialects, but both mean 'no clue'.
Yes! It means 'I know what I'm doing' or 'I'm an expert'.
It's a fixed prepositional phrase. Just like in English you have a 'clue ABOUT' but a 'bearing ON'.
