Preparing for sleep
문화적 배경
Norwegians often say 'Takk for i kveld' (Thanks for tonight) right before they 'legger seg' if they are with others. The Swedish equivalent is 'lägga sig', which is almost identical, reflecting the shared linguistic heritage. Americans often say 'I'm hitting the hay' or 'hitting the sack', which are much more idiomatic than the standard Norwegian 'legge seg'. In Japan, the concept of 'futon' means 'legge seg' involves laying out the bed itself, not just the person.
The Reflexive Rule
Always check your subject. If it's 'vi', it must be 'oss'. If it's 'jeg', it must be 'meg'.
Legge vs. Ligge
This is the #1 mistake. Remember: Legge = Movement. Ligge = Stillness.

자주 묻는 질문
4 질문Yes, but it sounds very formal or like something from a book. 'Jeg legger meg' is much more common.
'Legge seg' implies going to sleep for the night. 'Legge seg ned' just means the physical act of lying down, maybe for a rest.
You say 'Jeg legger barna.' You don't use 'seg' because you are doing it to them, not yourself.
In some dialects, especially in the north or west, it might be 'seg' or 'se', but 'sæj' is the standard Oslo pronunciation.
