意思
Stating a strong need to eat.
文化背景
Norwegians often eat an early dinner (middag) around 4-5 PM. Saying you are hungry at this time is very common. On a 'søndagstur' (Sunday hike), it is tradition to bring a 'matpakke'. Hunger is the signal to stop and enjoy nature. The 30-minute lunch break is sacred. Colleagues will often announce their hunger collectively. Unlike some cultures where it might be rude to ask for food, Norwegians appreciate the directness of 'Jeg er sulten'.
Use 'Kjempe'
Swap 'veldig' for 'kjempe' to sound more like a local teenager or young adult.
Don't say 'Jeg har'
This is the #1 mistake for English and Spanish speakers. Stick to 'Jeg er'.

The Matpakke Rule
If you say this on a hike, be prepared for someone to offer you a slice of brown cheese!

常见问题
4 个问题No, 'mye' is for quantity (much). Use 'veldig' for intensity (very).
It is both! In Norwegian, masculine and feminine adjectives usually look the same. Neuter is 'sultent'.
'Sulten' is hungry, 'skrubbsulten' is starving. Use the latter for emphasis.
Say 'Jeg er ikke sulten'.
