When you advare, you tell someone about something bad that might happen. It's like saying "Be careful!" or "Watch out!" You want to help them avoid a problem. You could warn a friend about bad weather, or a child about a hot stove. It's an important word to know so you can tell people about possible dangers.
When you want to tell someone about a possible danger, you can use the verb advare. It means 'to warn'.
You often use it when you see something that could be harmful. For example, if there's ice on the road, you might advare drivers. You are telling them to be careful.
It's an important word to know for safety. You can also advare someone about a bad situation, not just physical danger.
When you advare someone, you're letting them know about something potentially harmful or risky. Think of it like giving a heads-up to prevent a bad situation.
For example, if you see someone about to walk into a busy street without looking, you would advare them. It's about protecting others from unforeseen problems or consequences.
When you're trying to communicate more nuanced warnings in Norwegian, you have a few options beyond just 'advare'.
For instance, if you want to warn someone about a potential negative consequence, you can use 'gjøre oppmerksom på' (to make aware of) or 'påpeke' (to point out). These are good for softer, more advisory warnings.
If the warning is about a more serious or imminent danger, you might use phrases like 'varsle om' (to notify about, often used for official warnings) or 'alarmere' (to alert).
Understanding these different nuances will help you give warnings that are appropriate for the situation, making your Norwegian sound much more natural and precise.
§ What 'advare' means and when to use it
The Norwegian verb 'advare' (pronounced 'ahd-VAR-eh') is essential for anyone wanting to communicate effectively about safety and risks. Simply put, 'advare' means 'to warn.' It’s a direct and common verb that you will encounter frequently and use often in everyday Norwegian conversations and texts.
- DEFINITION
- To warn someone about a danger or risk.
You use 'advare' when you want to tell someone about a potential problem, hazard, or negative consequence before it happens. Think of situations where you want to prevent someone from making a mistake, getting hurt, or facing an unpleasant outcome. It's about giving advance notice so action can be taken or avoided.
Here are some common scenarios where 'advare' is the right word:
- Against danger: If you see someone about to step into a busy street without looking, you'd 'advare' them about the traffic.
- Against a bad decision: If a friend is considering a risky investment, you might 'advare' them about the potential financial loss.
- Against a person: If you know someone has a bad reputation, you might 'advare' another person about interacting with them.
- About a consequence: A teacher might 'advare' students about the consequences of not studying for an exam.
- In official warnings: Signs often 'advarer' people about slippery floors, falling rocks, or dangerous currents.
The verb 'advare' is generally followed by 'mot' (against) or 'om' (about) when specifying what is being warned against. For example, 'advare mot faren' (warn against the danger) or 'advare om problemet' (warn about the problem). Sometimes, especially in more direct or simple sentences, 'mot' or 'om' can be implied or omitted if the context is clear.
Jeg må advare deg mot den glatte veien. (I must warn you against the slippery road.)
De advarte oss om det dårlige været. (They warned us about the bad weather.)
It's important to remember that 'advare' implies a sense of concern or responsibility. You are providing information that could help someone avoid harm or difficulty. It's not just stating a fact; it's providing a protective heads-up.
Understanding 'advare' and its common usage will significantly improve your ability to communicate about safety and precautions in Norwegian. Practice using it in different contexts to get comfortable with its various applications.
For example, if you are hiking in Norway and see a sign that says, 'Advarsel! Bratt sti,' it means 'Warning! Steep path.' Here, 'advarsel' is the noun form of the verb, meaning 'a warning.' The verb 'advare' is what someone does when they issue such a warning.
Legene advarer mot å spise for mye sukker. (The doctors warn against eating too much sugar.)
This shows how 'advare' is used in health contexts, too, not just immediate physical dangers. It's about advising against actions that could lead to negative consequences in the long term.
§ Understanding 'advare'
The Norwegian verb 'advare' (CEFR B1) means 'to warn someone about a danger or risk.' It's a straightforward verb, but like many verbs, it has specific ways it likes to be used with other words. Let's break it down.
- DEFINITION
- To warn someone about a danger or risk.
§ Basic Sentence Structure with 'advare'
When you warn someone, you are usually warning a person (or people) *about* something. In Norwegian, this 'about something' is often introduced by the preposition 'mot' (against) or sometimes 'om' (about/of). The person being warned is the direct object.

Translation hint: I warned him against the ice.
Legen advarte pasienten om farene ved røyking.
Translation hint: The doctor warned the patient about the dangers of smoking.
§ Using 'advare' with Clauses
You can also warn someone that something will happen, using a 'at' (that) clause. This is common when the warning is about a future event or state.
Hun advarte meg om at det ville bli glatt.
Translation hint: She warned me that it would be slippery.
Vi advarte barna om at de måtte være forsiktige.
Translation hint: We warned the children that they had to be careful.

§ Imperative Form: Giving a Direct Warning
To give a direct warning, you can use the imperative form of 'advare,' which is 'advár' (or often 'advar').
Advar ham!
Translation hint: Warn him!
§ Reflexive Use: 'Advare seg' (To warn oneself)
While less common, you can also use 'advare' reflexively, meaning 'to warn oneself'. This implies self-caution or self-admonishment.
Man bør advare seg selv mot for store forventninger.
Translation hint: One should warn oneself against too high expectations.

This sentence structure (subject-verb-modal verb-object-prepositional phrase) is standard for Norwegian. 'Advare mot' means 'to warn against'.
The infinitive marker 'å' precedes the verb 'advare'. The negation 'ikke' typically comes before the verb it negates in such constructions. 'Advare om' means 'to warn about'.
Standard sentence construction. 'Prøvde å advare' means 'tried to warn'. 'Advare mot' is used for warning against something.
Regjeringen advarer befolkningen om mulige forstyrrelser i strømforsyningen i vinter, og oppfordrer til å ta forholdsregler. De ____ om at det kan bli perioder uten strøm.
In this context, 'advarer' (warns) best fits the meaning of cautioning the population about potential power outages and urging precautions.
FNs klimapanel har gjentatte ganger ____ om de katastrofale konsekvensene av global oppvarming, og fremhever behovet for umiddelbar handling.
Here, 'advarte' (warned) is the most appropriate verb to describe the IPCC's repeated warnings about global warming's catastrophic consequences.
Selv om han ble ____ om de potensielle farene ved ekspedisjonen, valgte eventyreren å fortsette, drevet av sin ustoppelige nysgjerrighet.
'Advarte' (warned) correctly conveys that he received a warning about the dangers, despite which he proceeded.
Leger ____ sterkt mot ukritisk bruk av antibiotika, da det kan føre til resistens og gjøre fremtidig behandling vanskeligere.
'Advarer' (warn) is the strongest and most fitting verb to express a strong caution against overuse of antibiotics.

The guide 'advarte' (warned) the group about the dangerous conditions, emphasizing the element of danger.

Here, 'advare' (warn) is used to show that the elders cautioned the young about the potential dangers or consequences of not respecting nature.
Which sentence correctly uses 'advare' in a complex, idiomatic expression?
The phrase 'advare mot noe' (to warn against something) is the correct and idiomatic usage in Norwegian for expressing a warning against a specific action or outcome. The other options use incorrect prepositions or unidiomatic constructions.
Choose the most nuanced translation of: 'Regjeringen advarte innbyggerne om en forestående krise, men mange tok det ikke på alvor.'
'Cautioned' and 'populace' convey a slightly more formal and encompassing tone than 'warned' and 'citizens', fitting the context of a government warning. 'Regarding a pending crisis' is a more sophisticated phrasing than 'about an upcoming crisis', and 'yet a significant number disregarded it' captures the nuance of 'mange tok det ikke på alvor' better than simpler alternatives.
In which scenario would 'advare' be most appropriately used to convey a subtle, almost premonitory warning?
While 'advare' can be used in all these contexts, the nuance of 'premonitory warning' aligns best with an elder sharing prophecies, as it implies a warning based on intuition, tradition, or foresight rather than immediate empirical evidence or direct observation, which characterize the other options.
The sentence 'Jeg advarer deg, dette er et glatt parti å begi seg ut på' implies a direct, explicit warning about a metaphorical, risky endeavor.
The phrase 'et glatt parti å begi seg ut på' literally translates to 'a slippery slope/party to embark on,' and is an idiomatic expression for a tricky or risky situation. Combined with 'Jeg advarer deg,' it forms a direct and explicit warning about a metaphorical, rather than physical, danger.
If someone 'advarer mot å blande seg inn,' they are advising against interfering.
The construction 'advare mot noe' means to warn against something. In this case, 'å blande seg inn' means 'to interfere' or 'to meddle.' Therefore, 'advarer mot å blande seg inn' directly translates to warning against interfering.
The sentence 'Vi ble advart av ryktene om hans hensikter' correctly uses 'advare' in the passive voice to indicate being warned by rumors.
While 'advare' can be used in the passive voice, 'advare av' is not the correct preposition. It should be 'advaret av ryktene' or more idiomatically, 'vi ble advart om hans hensikter basert på ryktene.' The current phrasing is grammatically awkward and not idiomatic in Norwegian.
