意思
Disbelieving.
文化背景
Norwegians value 'consensus' and 'indirectness' in conflict. Saying 'Jeg tror ikke det' is a way to avoid 'shaming' the other person for being wrong. Americans might find 'Jeg tror ikke det' a bit vague or non-committal. In the US, a more direct 'I don't think that's right' is common. Germans are often more direct than Norwegians. While they have 'Ich glaube nicht,' they might switch to 'Das stimmt nicht' (That's not true) more quickly than a Norwegian would. Both cultures share a high value for social harmony. 'Jeg tror ikke det' functions very similarly to Japanese indirect negations used to save face.
The 'Det' Rule
Always include 'det' at the end. English speakers often forget it because 'I don't think' is okay in English, but 'Jeg tror ikke' sounds unfinished in Norwegian.
Tror vs Synes
This is the #1 mistake. Use 'tror' for things you can be wrong about (facts). Use 'synes' for things where there is no 'wrong' (taste).

常见问题
10 个问题No, it sounds incomplete. You must add 'det' to refer to what you're talking about.
Not at all! It's actually more polite than saying 'Nei'.
The second one is more emphatic. You are highlighting the 'that' part of the sentence.
Use it for opinions. Example: 'Is this movie good?' 'Jeg synes ikke det.'
You say 'Eg trur ikkje det.'
Yes, it's perfectly professional. It shows you are being careful with your facts.
It's a contraction of 'tror ikke'. It's very common in spoken Norwegian.
Not exactly. 'I don't believe it' (as in shock) is 'Jeg tror det ikke!' with emphasis on 'ikke'.
No, that is not a natural Norwegian expression.
It can also mean 'believe' in a religious sense, but in this phrase, it means 'think/suppose'.
