Complimenting a meal
문화적 배경
The phrase 'Takk for maten' is mandatory after a meal. 'Jeg liker denne maten' is the compliment you give *during* the meal. Complimenting the food is seen as a sign of respect for the host's labor, reflecting the value of 'likestilling' (equality) where everyone's effort is recognized. Foreigners are often praised for using this phrase because it shows they are making an effort to integrate into the 'koselig' dinner culture. In cities like Oslo, food is a major topic of conversation. Using this phrase is often the start of a longer discussion about ingredients and origins.
Add 'veldig godt'
Saying 'Jeg liker denne maten veldig godt' makes you sound much more enthusiastic and natural.
Don't forget the -en
Saying 'denne mat' sounds like 'this food' in a broken, robotic way. Always use 'maten'.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, but 'elsker' (love) is very strong. Use it only if the food is truly incredible.
'Denne' is for masculine/feminine nouns (mat), 'dette' is for neuter nouns (brød).
It can be. It's better to say 'Jeg er ikke så glad i dette' (I'm not so fond of this).
Just say 'Jeg liker maten'. Removing 'denne' makes it general.
No, but at least once during a dinner party is considered very polite.
Because 'denne' requires the definite form of the noun in Norwegian.
No, for drinks use 'Jeg liker denne drikken' or 'Denne vinen var god'.
Use the plural: 'Jeg liker disse rettene' (I like these dishes).
Yes, 'Jeg liker deg' means 'I like you'.
Add 'virkelig': 'Jeg liker virkelig denne maten'.
