뜻
Going to sleep.
문화적 배경
Norwegians value 'nattesøvn' (night sleep) and generally have an early 'leggetid' compared to Southern Europe. During the midnight sun, 'å legge seg' is difficult because it's light 24/7. People use blackout curtains ('lystette gardiner'). At a 'hytte', 'å legge seg' often happens earlier and more collectively after a day of hiking. Younger Norwegians use 'å køye' as a cool, informal way to say they are going to bed.
The 'E' vs 'I' Rule
Remember: lEgge (Exit to bed) vs lIgge (In bed). This will save you from 90% of mistakes.
Don't forget 'seg'!
Without the reflexive pronoun, the sentence is incomplete. It's like saying 'I am laying' in English without saying what you are laying.

Mostly, but you can use 'legge seg ned' for a nap during the day.
It changes based on the person. I = meg, You = deg, He/She/They = seg.
'Legge seg' is the act of going to bed. 'Sovne' is the actual moment you fall asleep.
