सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Norwegians use 'på vei' as a polite way to handle their strict punctuality. If you are 2 minutes late, you MUST text 'Jeg er på vei'. In Norwegian offices, 'på vei' is used to show progress without committing to a specific second of completion. Norway is highly digitized. Apps for food, post, and taxis all use 'på vei' as the standard status for 'En route'. Announcing a pregnancy with 'på vei' is considered more modest and traditional than saying 'Jeg er gravid'.
The Texting Shortcut
In Norway, just texting 'På vei!' is enough. You don't need the 'Jeg er'.
Preposition Trap
Never say 'i vei' when you mean you are coming. It sounds like you are telling yourself to go away!
