A2 Collocation 中性

å ta en pause

to take a break

意思

Stopping work to rest.

🌍

文化背景

The 'matpause' is often unpaid and lasts 30 minutes. It is a time for social bonding, not for checking emails. In schools, 'friminutt' are strictly scheduled pauses where children are usually required to go outside, regardless of the weather. The 'kaffepause' is a shorter, informal break that can happen multiple times a day in a Norwegian office. In international business meetings in Norway, expect a 5-10 minute pause every hour. It's considered efficient, not lazy.

💡

Use 'fra'

Always use the preposition 'fra' to say what you are taking a break from (e.g., 'pause fra jobben').

⚠️

Don't say 'gjøre'

Never say 'gjøre en pause'. It's a dead giveaway that you're translating from another language.
