Ordering a drink politely
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Coffee is often served black and in large quantities. If you want milk or sugar, you usually have to ask for it separately or find it at a side table. The 'kaffepause' is a vital social institution. It's not just about the caffeine; it's about 'kos' (coziness) and egalitarian chatting with the boss. 'Turkaffe' is coffee made outdoors, often over a fire or from a thermos, during a hike. It is considered the best-tasting coffee by many Norwegians. When you finish your coffee at someone's house, it is polite to say 'Takk for kaffen' (Thanks for the coffee).
The Magic Word
Always include 'gjerne'. It is the difference between being a polite guest and a demanding stranger.
Takk is Essential
Norwegians use 'takk' (thanks) where English speakers use 'please'. Add it to the end of your sentence.
