Describing wet weather
문화적 배경
In Bergen, it rains about 240 days a year. People there don't say 'Det regner ute' with sadness; it's just a fact of life. They even have umbrella vending machines! Rain is the perfect excuse for 'Innekos'. When it rains, Norwegians love to light candles and stay inside with a blanket. The Sami people have over 100 words for snow, but also many specific terms for rain depending on how it affects the reindeer grazing. On Norwegian Instagram, 'Det regner ute' is often paired with the hashtag #høstkos or #regnvær to show off a cozy indoor aesthetic.
The 'Is' Trap
Never say 'Det er regner'. This is the #1 mistake for English speakers. Just 'Det regner' is enough!
Small Talk Gold
