At the A1 level, you should know that 'ansette' means 'to hire' or 'to give someone a job'. It is a word you might hear when talking about work. For example, if you say 'Jeg har en jobb', you might also hear 'De skal ansette meg'. At this level, don't worry too much about the complex grammar. Just remember that it is about starting a new job. You can think of it as the opposite of 'slutte' (to quit). If you are looking for work, you want a company to 'ansette' you. It is a useful word to recognize in simple job advertisements or when talking about your family and friends' jobs. For instance, 'Min søster skal ansette en hjelper' (My sister is going to hire a helper).
At the A2 level, you begin to use 'ansette' in more complete sentences. You should learn its basic forms: 'ansette' (infinitive), 'ansetter' (present), and 'ansatte' (past). You will often see it used with the word 'som' (as) to describe a job title, like 'De ansetter ham som sjåfør' (They are hiring him as a driver). You might also encounter the noun 'ansatt', which means 'employee'. For example, 'Jeg er ansatt i en butikk' means 'I am employed in a shop'. This is a very common way to describe your work status. At this stage, you should be able to understand simple news stories about companies hiring more people or advertisements looking for new staff.
By the B1 level, you should be comfortable using 'ansette' in both active and passive forms. The passive form 'å bli ansatt' (to be hired) is very frequent in Norwegian. You should also understand the difference between 'å ansette' and 'å rekruttere'. 'Rekruttere' is the process of looking for people, while 'ansette' is the final act of hiring them. You will hear this word in professional settings, such as job interviews or meetings. For example, 'Vi vurderer å ansette flere vikarer' (We are considering hiring more substitutes). You should also be aware of related words like 'ansettelse' (employment/hiring) and 'ansettelsesforhold' (employment relationship). Understanding these terms will help you read more complex texts about the labor market.
At the B2 level, you are expected to use 'ansette' with precision in professional and academic contexts. You should understand the nuances between 'ansette', 'hyre', and 'engasjere'. You will often encounter 'ansette' in formal documents, such as employment contracts ('ansettelsesavtale'). You should be able to discuss labor market trends, such as 'lav vilje til å ansette' (low willingness to hire) during economic downturns. You should also be familiar with the various prepositions used with the word, such as 'ansatt i' (employed in/at a company) and 'ansatt ved' (employed at an institution like a university). Your ability to use the word in complex sentences, such as 'Det er avgjørende å ansette personer med tverrfaglig kompetanse', shows a high level of proficiency.
At the C1 level, you should have a deep understanding of the legal and administrative implications of the word 'ansette'. This includes knowing how it relates to the 'Arbeidsmiljøloven' (Working Environment Act) in Norway. You should be able to use the word in sophisticated discussions about human resource management, organizational psychology, and economic policy. For instance, you might analyze the impact of 'midlertidige ansettelser' (temporary hires) on job security. You should also be comfortable with idiomatic or highly formal expressions, such as 'å ansette på prøvetid' (to hire on a probationary period). At this level, you can also appreciate the subtle differences in tone when using 'ansette' versus 'utnevne' (to appoint) for high-ranking positions.
At the C2 level, 'ansette' is a word you use with complete mastery, understanding all its historical, legal, and social connotations. You can use it in highly specialized fields, such as labor law or macroeconomics, to discuss complex concepts like 'ansettelsesstopp' (hiring freeze) or 'fortrinnsrett til ny ansettelse' (preferential right to new employment). You are able to critique the language used in recruitment and recognize the subtle power dynamics implied by the act of 'ansettelse'. You can also use the word creatively in literature or high-level rhetoric. Your command of the word and its entire family (ansettelse, ansatt, nyansatt, etc.) is indistinguishable from that of a highly educated native speaker, allowing you to navigate any professional or academic environment in Norway with ease.

ansette در ۳۰ ثانیه

  • Ansette is the primary Norwegian verb for hiring or employing a person for a job or role.
  • It is used in professional contexts and follows a weak conjugation pattern: ansette, ansetter, ansatte, har ansatt.
  • The word is specifically for human employment, unlike 'leie', which is used for renting objects or temporary services.
  • Commonly seen in job ads, business news, and administrative law, it is a key term for the Norwegian labor market.

The Norwegian verb ansette is a fundamental term in the world of work and professional life. At its core, it means to hire or employ someone for a specific position or role. While it might seem straightforward, the nuances of its usage reflect the structured nature of the Norwegian labor market. When an organization decides that a candidate is the right fit for a job, they perform the act of ansettelse (the noun form), which is the formal process of bringing them onto the payroll. This word is predominantly used in formal and professional contexts, such as human resources, business news, and administrative discussions. However, it also appears in daily conversation when people discuss their career transitions or the growth of local businesses.

Formal Recruitment
In professional settings, ansette denotes the final decision in a recruitment process. It implies a legal contract and a long-term commitment between the employer and the employee.
Public Sector
In the Norwegian public sector, the process of ansettelse is strictly regulated by law to ensure fairness and transparency, making this word a staple of administrative law.

Bedriften planlegger å ansette ti nye utviklere før året er omme.

Understanding ansette also requires recognizing its past participle form, ansatt, which functions as both a verb form and a noun meaning 'employee'. If you are 'ansatt i en bank', you are employed at a bank. This dual role makes the word incredibly versatile. In Norway, where the 'Nordic Model' of labor emphasizes cooperation between employers and unions, the act of hiring is seen as a significant social and economic contribution. Therefore, when a company announces they will ansette more people, it is often viewed as a sign of health and stability in the local economy.

Vi har bestemt oss for å ansette henne på grunn av hennes omfattende erfaring.

Temporary vs. Permanent
Whether a position is 'fast' (permanent) or 'midlertidig' (temporary), the verb ansette remains the primary choice for the act of hiring.

In summary, ansette is the bridge between being an applicant and being a colleague. It carries the weight of professional responsibility and the excitement of a new beginning. Whether you are reading a job contract or listening to a CEO's speech, this word will be your primary indicator of workforce expansion and individual career progression in Norway.

Using ansette correctly involves understanding its conjugation and the prepositions that often accompany it. As a weak verb of the first class (some categorize it as second), it follows a predictable pattern: ansette - ansetter - ansatte - har ansatt. When you want to say someone was hired, you often use the passive construction with 'ble'. For example, 'Han ble ansatt i går' (He was hired yesterday). This is one of the most common ways you will encounter the word in speech.

Styret valgte å ansette en ny daglig leder med en gang.

Prepositional Use: 'i'
We use 'i' to indicate the organization or department: 'De ansatte ham i markedsavdelingen'.
Prepositional Use: 'som'
We use 'som' to indicate the role: 'Hun ble ansatt som oversetter'.

Another important aspect is the reflexive or complex usage. While you don't usually 'ansette seg selv' (hire yourself) unless you are a business owner, the word frequently appears in discussions about 'nyansettelser' (new hires). When constructing sentences about the future, the infinitive form ansette is often preceded by modal verbs like 'skal' or 'vil'. For instance, 'Vi skal ansette flere lærere til høsten' (We are going to hire more teachers this autumn).

Det er vanskelig å ansette folk med riktig kompetanse i dagens marked.

When talking about the act of hiring in the past, ensure you use 'ansatte' for the simple past and 'har ansatt' for the present perfect. 'De ansatte ham' means 'They hired him', whereas 'De har ansatt ham' means 'They have hired him'. The distinction is important for clarity regarding the timeline of the employment process. In academic or formal writing, you might also see the word used in the context of 'ansettelsesforhold' (employment relationship) or 'ansettelsesavtale' (employment agreement).

Hvem har ansvaret for å ansette vikarer ved skolen?

Lastly, consider the tone. While 'ansette' is the standard term, in very casual contexts, Norwegians might say 'ta inn' or 'hyre', but ansette remains the most professional and universally understood term for the legal and formal act of adding someone to a workforce.

You will encounter the word ansette in a variety of real-world scenarios in Norway. Perhaps the most common place is in the news, specifically in the business and economy sections. When a large company like Equinor or Telenor expands, headlines will frequently feature the word: 'Equinor skal ansette 500 nye ingeniører'. This usage highlights the word's connection to economic growth and labor market trends. If you are a job seeker, you will see it constantly on job portals like FINN.no, where descriptions often state what kind of person the company wishes to ansette.

The Workplace
In internal meetings, managers might say, 'Vi må ansette en vikar for Kari mens hun er i permisjon'. Here, it is used for practical resource planning.
News & Media
Economic reports often discuss the 'vilje til å ansette' (willingness to hire) among small and medium-sized enterprises.

Er det sant at de skal ansette flere folk i butikken?

In social settings, you might hear it when friends discuss their careers. A friend might say, 'Jeg ble endelig ansatt i fast stilling!' (I was finally hired in a permanent position!). This conveys a sense of relief and security, as permanent employment is highly valued in Norway. You will also hear it in political debates, especially concerning the public sector. Politicians might argue about whether to ansette more police officers or nurses to improve public services.

Kommunen har ikke råd til å ansette flere lærere i år.

Furthermore, if you listen to podcasts about leadership or HR, ansette is a keyword. Experts often discuss 'hvordan ansette de beste talentene' (how to hire the best talents). Even in literature or films depicting office life, the drama often revolves around who gets hired and the power dynamics involved in that decision. Whether it is a formal announcement or a casual chat over coffee, ansette is the standard term that anchors the conversation in the reality of the Norwegian workforce.

One of the most common mistakes English speakers make when using ansette is confusing it with other verbs related to 'using' or 'using up'. Because the prefix 'an-' can sometimes feel abstract, learners might mistakenly use it where they should use 'bruke' (to use) or 'benytte' (to utilize). It is vital to remember that ansette is strictly for the human resource context of hiring a person. You cannot 'ansette' a computer or a new software system.

Confusion with 'Leie'
In English, we sometimes say 'hire a car' or 'hire a consultant'. In Norwegian, you 'leier' a car. While you can 'leie inn' a consultant (rent/bring in), ansette implies a more permanent employment relationship.
Confusion with 'Si opp'
Learners sometimes mix up the opposites. 'Å ansette' is to hire, while 'å si opp' is to fire or to quit. Mixing these up can cause significant confusion in a professional setting!

Feil: Vi skal ansette en ny bil. (Wrong: We are going to hire/employ a new car.)
Riktig: Vi skal leie en ny bil.

Another grammatical pitfall is the conjugation of the past tense. Since the past tense is 'ansatte' (which looks exactly like the plural noun for 'employees'), learners often get confused. 'De ansatte' can mean 'The employees' (noun) or 'They hired' (verb). Context is the only way to distinguish them. For example: 'De ansatte (noun) var glade' vs. 'De ansatte (verb) ham i går'. Paying attention to the sentence structure is key to avoiding this trap.

Finally, some learners use 'ansette' when they mean 'rekruttere'. While they are similar, ansette is the specific act of finalizing the hire, whereas 'rekruttere' refers to the whole process of finding candidates. Using ansette too early in the process might sound like the decision is already made. Precision in these terms will make your Norwegian sound much more natural and professional.

While ansette is the most common word for hiring, there are several alternatives depending on the context and the formality of the situation. Understanding these synonyms will help you choose the right word for the right occasion. For instance, 'rekruttere' (to recruit) is often used when discussing the broader process of looking for new talent, while 'hyre' (to hire/engage) often feels more temporary or project-based, similar to 'hyre inn' for consultants.

Rekruttere vs. Ansette
Rekruttere is the hunt; ansette is the capture. You recruit many but hire one.
Engasjere
Often used for freelancers or speakers. It means 'to engage' and suggests a less formal employment bond than ansette.

Vi må rekruttere bredere for å finne den rette kandidaten.

Another interesting alternative is 'ta inn', which is more colloquial. You might hear a manager say, 'Vi skal ta inn to nye lærlinger'. This sounds slightly less formal than 'Vi skal ansette to nye lærlinger'. In the maritime industry or for short-term labor, 'hyre' is very common, reflecting its historical roots in hiring sailors. Today, it is also used for hiring bands or entertainers for an event.

De valgte å hyre inn eksterne konsulenter for prosjektet.

Lastly, consider the word 'utnevne' (to appoint). This is used for very high-level positions, such as ministers in the government or judges. You wouldn't 'utnevne' a cashier, but you would 'utnevne' a new CEO or a board member. Knowing these distinctions allows you to navigate the hierarchy of Norwegian professional language with confidence. Whether you are ansette a new colleague or 'engasjere' a consultant, choosing the precise word demonstrates your command of the language.

  • Jeg er ansett her. Jeg er ansatt her.

    Don't forget the 'a' in 'ansatt'. 'Ansett' (without the 'a') is a different word meaning 'regarded' or 'respected'.

نکات

Master the Past Tense

Remember that 'ansatte' is the past tense. Since it looks like the word for 'employees', always check if there is a subject before it to confirm it's a verb.

Ansette vs. Leie

Never use 'ansette' for things. You 'ansetter' a person, but you 'leier' a car or a house. This is a very common mistake for English speakers.

Using 'Som'

When mentioning a job title after 'ansette', always use the preposition 'som'. Example: 'De ansatte ham som prosjektleder'.

Stress the Second Syllable

The stress is on 'SET', not 'an'. Saying 'AN-sette' sounds unnatural. Practice saying 'an-SET-te' several times.

The Noun 'Ansatt'

The word 'ansatt' is very versatile. It's the past participle (har ansatt), an adjective (er ansatt), and a noun (en ansatt). Learn all three uses!

Formal Documents

In formal letters or contracts, use 'ansettelse' (the noun) instead of the verb to sound more professional. For example: 'Bekreftelse på ansettelse'.

Job Security

In Norway, being 'fast ansatt' is a big deal because of the strong labor laws. Mentioning this in conversation shows cultural awareness.

Listen for the 't'

The double 'tt' in 'ansette' is short and sharp. This helps distinguish it from other similar-sounding words.

Use with Modals

Combine 'ansette' with modal verbs like 'skal', 'vil', and 'må' to talk about future plans or requirements in a company.

The 'Set' Trick

Think of setting a person into a specific slot in a company. To 'an-SET-te' is to set them in their job.

حفظ کنید

روش یادسپاری

Think of 'an-set-te' as 'putting someone IN a SET position' in your company. You SET them into their new job.

تداعی تصویری

Imagine a manager placing a small 'Employee' figurine into a slot on a company organizational chart. That act is 'ansette'.

چالش

Try to write three sentences: one about who you would like to hire, one about when you were hired, and one about a company that is hiring many people.

ریشه کلمه

The word 'ansette' comes from the Middle Low German 'ansetten', which is composed of the prefix 'an-' (at/to) and 'setten' (to set/place).

معنای اصلی: The original meaning was literally 'to set at' or 'to place in a position'.

Germanic (via Low German influence on Old Norse/Middle Norwegian).

بافت فرهنگی

Always ensure that the process of 'ansette' follows Norwegian anti-discrimination laws, which are very strict regarding age, gender, and background.

In English, we use 'hire' for both people and things (like cars). In Norwegian, 'ansette' is strictly for people. For cars, use 'leie'.

The Norwegian 'Arbeidsmiljøloven' (Working Environment Act) regulates how you can ansette people. The TV show 'The Apprentice' (Norsk versjon: 'Kandidaten') is all about who the boss will ansette. FINN.no is the most famous place in Norway to look for companies that want to ansette.

سوالات متداول

10 سوال

'Ansette' is the formal and most common word for employing someone in a standard job with a contract. 'Hyre' is more often used for temporary work, maritime jobs, or hiring performers for an event. In most office or retail contexts, you should use 'ansette'.

No, you cannot. For renting objects like cars, houses, or tools, you must use the verb 'leie'. 'Ansette' is strictly reserved for the employment of human beings.

It can be both! 'Ansatte' is the past tense of 'ansette' (e.g., 'De ansatte ham' - They hired him). It is also the plural form of the noun 'ansatt' (e.g., 'De ansatte er på pause' - The employees are on break). Context is key to telling them apart.

You use the passive construction: 'Jeg ble ansatt'. For example, 'Jeg ble ansatt i august' (I was hired in August).

Use 'som' for a role (ansatt som lærer) and 'i' or 'ved' for the workplace (ansatt i en bank, ansatt ved universitetet).

It means 'newly hired'. It can be an adjective ('en nyansatt kollega') or a noun ('den nyansatte').

The most common opposite is 'si opp', which means to fire someone or for someone to quit. Another formal word for firing is 'avskjedige'.

Usually, no. For freelancers or consultants, it is more common to use 'engasjere' or 'leie inn', as they are not officially 'ansatt' (employed) by the company in the legal sense.

Yes, 'ansettelse' is the noun form of 'ansette' and is used very frequently in formal contexts, such as 'fast ansettelse' (permanent employment).

It is pronounced like the 'un' in the English word 'under'. The stress is on the second syllable: an-SET-te.
