意思
Considering a decision carefully.
文化背景
Norwegians value 'besindighet' (deliberation). Taking time to think is seen as a sign of honesty and reliability, not indecisiveness. The 'Law of Jante' influences this phrase by encouraging people not to act as if they know everything immediately. Thinking it over is a humble act. In Norwegian meetings, silence is not awkward; it is often the sound of people 'tenker seg om'. Don't rush to fill the gap. The 'Mountain Code' (Fjellvettreglene) essentially tells you to 'tenke deg om' before the weather turns bad.
The 'Godt' Trick
Always insert 'godt' (well) to sound more native: 'Jeg må tenke meg godt om.' It shows you are serious.
Don't forget the 'seg'!
If you say 'Jeg tenker om', Norwegians will wait for you to finish the sentence. It sounds like 'I am thinking about...' and then nothing.

Silence is Gold
In Norway, saying 'Jeg må tenke meg om' and then being silent for 30 seconds is perfectly normal and polite.

常见问题
10 个问题You can, but it sounds incomplete. It's like saying 'I must think' instead of 'I must think it over'. 'Tenke meg om' is much more natural.
Yes! 'Jeg tenkte meg om' is very common when explaining why you made a choice.
'Å vurdere' is 'to evaluate' or 'to consider'. It's more formal. 'Tenke seg om' is the everyday version.
Yes, but it might sound slightly dramatic. For small things, 'Jeg må tenke litt' is more common.
Yes, always. Meg, deg, seg, oss, dere, seg. This is the most important rule!
Not at all. It shows you are taking their request seriously.
You say: 'Jeg tenkte meg ikke om før jeg snakket.'
Yes: 'Har du tenkt deg om?' (Have you thought about it?)
Usually, yes. 'Jeg må tenke meg om NÅ' (I must think about it NOW) is possible, but 'om' stays with the verb.
If you say 'Jeg tenker meg på...', it makes no sense. If you say 'Jeg tenker på det', it's okay but less idiomatic for deliberation.
