Contexte culturel
Norwegians are often reserved, and 'Lykke til videre' is a perfect way to show care without being 'too much.' It respects the other person's space while acknowledging their journey. In Norwegian business culture, leaving a job on good terms is very important. This phrase is the essential 'bridge-builder' during resignations. During 'Vitnemålsutdeling' (diploma ceremonies), this phrase is used by principals to send students off into the world. On platforms like LinkedIn or Facebook, this is the most common 'polite' comment for life updates in Norway.
The 'Med' Trick
Always add 'med' if you want to sound more specific. 'Lykke til videre med [noun]' makes you sound much more fluent.
Don't over-videre
If you say 'Lykke til videre' to someone who is just going to the store, they will think you are saying goodbye forever!
