意思
Working for income.
文化背景
Tax records are public. You can see what everyone 'tjente' last year on the 'skattelister'. This promotes equality but is also a source of gossip. The concept of 'Janteloven' means you shouldn't brag about how much you 'tjener'. It's better to be modest about your income. Norwegians value work-life balance. 'Tjene penger' is important, but having 'fritid' (free time) is often seen as more valuable than a massive salary. Many Norwegian teens 'tjener penger' by having a 'deltidsjobb' (part-time job) alongside school to pay for their 'russetid' (graduation celebrations).
The 'Lage' Trap
Never say 'lage penger'. It's the #1 mistake for English speakers and sounds very funny to Norwegians.
Preposition Power
Use 'tjene penger PÅ' for the activity and 'tjene penger TIL' for the goal.
