文化背景
Norwegians value 'direkte tale' (direct speech). When answering questions, it is common to get straight to the point without much fluff. In Norwegian universities, there is a strong tradition of 'spørretime' (question hour) where professors 'svarer på spørsmål' in an informal, open setting. Flat hierarchy means even the CEO is expected to 'svare på spørsmål' from the newest intern during 'allmøter' (all-hands meetings). The TV show 'Nytt på nytt' is a famous satire where celebrities 'svarer på spørsmål' about the week's news in a humorous way.
The 'På' Rule
Never say 'svare spørsmålet'. It's the #1 mistake for English speakers. Always include 'på'!
Plural Power
Remember that 'spørsmål' is the same in singular and plural. 'Ett spørsmål, to spørsmål'.
