意思
To start acting like a child due to age.
文化背景
In Norway, discussing dementia was historically taboo, but 'å gå i barndommen' served as a softer, more poetic way to address it in families. There is a shared Nordic literary tradition where the 'old man' returning to childhood is a symbol of the cycle of nature. Younger generations might use the phrase ironically for 'kidults' (adults with child-like hobbies), though this is technically a misuse of the C1-level idiom. Elderly respect is paramount; while the concept exists, the phrasing in Sami languages often emphasizes the wisdom that remains even in regression.
Use with 'begynne å'
It is very common to use this with 'begynne å' (start to) because the process is usually gradual.
Sensitivity Check
Be careful using this around people who have lost loved ones to Alzheimer's; it can sometimes sound too casual for a serious medical condition.

4 个问题Not necessarily, but it can be. It's more of a descriptive observation of a sad reality, though it can be used mockingly.
No, that would mean 'he is in his childhood' (referring to a child). You must use the verb 'gå' to use the idiom correctly.
Yes, 'han har fått demens' or 'han er preget av alderen' (he is marked by age) are more formal and polite.
