意味
Reviewing news in print.
文化的背景
Norway has a very high number of local newspapers. It's common for people to subscribe to both a national paper (like Aftenposten) and a local one. The concept of 'morgenstund har gull i munn' (the morning hour has gold in its mouth) often involves a slow start with coffee and a newspaper. Norway is one of the most digitalized countries. Most people now 'read the paper' on an iPad or phone, but the phrase remains the same. Norwegian libraries (bibliotek) are popular places to go specifically to read the day's newspapers for free.
Use the definite form
Always say 'lese avisen' (the paper) rather than 'lese avis' (read paper) to sound like a native.
The 'Avisa' variant
In many dialects and in Nynorsk, people say 'avisa'. Don't be confused if you hear this; it's the same thing!

While grammatically okay, 'lese avisen' or 'lese nyhetene' (definite) is much more natural.

Aftenposten, VG, and Dagbladet are the biggest ones.
It is 'leste'. For example: 'Jeg leste avisen i går.'
Yes, but you would say 'lese et blad' or 'lese et ukeblad'.
