Å være venner.

To be friends.

Having a friendship.

🌍

문화적 배경

Friendship is often tied to 'friluftsliv'. Being friends means being active together outdoors. Americans use 'friend' much more loosely than Norwegians. A Norwegian 'venn' is closer to an American 'close friend'. Similar to Norway, Russian culture distinguishes between 'drug' (true friend) and 'znakomy' (acquaintance) very strictly. Friendship is often defined by the group (uchi) vs the outside (soto). Being friends means you are part of the same 'inner' circle.

💡

Plural is Key

Always remember the 'er' at the end of 'venner' when talking about 'us' or 'them'.

⚠️

Don't Overuse

Don't call everyone a 'venn' too quickly in Norway; it might seem insincere.
