B1 Collocation Formal

å legge ved

to attach

Significado

To include a file in an email or letter.

🌍

Contexto cultural

In Norwegian business culture, it is considered polite to mention the attachment early in the email so the recipient doesn't miss it. While Americans also 'attach' files, they often use more words to describe the attachment than Norwegians, who prefer brevity. Germans are very precise with attachments, often numbering them, which is also a common practice in formal Norwegian 'vedleggslister'. In Japan, forgetting an attachment can require a very formal apology email, whereas in Norway, a quick 'Ops, her er filen' is usually enough.

🎯

Pronoun Placement

Always put 'den' or 'det' between the words: 'Jeg legger den ved.' It sounds much more native.

⚠️

Don't use 'feste'

Avoid saying 'feste en fil'. It sounds like you are trying to use glue on your computer screen.
