| - Some corrections: shy: sjenert to rest: å hvile (although I use "kvile" while talking) Languages is my goal: Språk er mitt (or Mine) mål. Also: Would you like to do now? - Hva vil du liker å gjøre nå? Both sentences are wrong. I'm guessing ilovelang meant: What would you like to do now? Hva vil du gjøre nå? | |

| - Also, in English one would say "Languages [i]are[/i] my goal" unless you were to say "[b]Learning[/b] languages [i]is[/i] my goal" | |

| - Minor correction :) Get up! = våkn opp (wake up), stå opp (get up). Long -lang, langt, lenge. shy: være sjenert, instead of bli sjenert. | |

| - uff da!! tusen takk for rettelse :) Get Up!: I forgot to include stå opp. Where I come from we use the term get up! meaning either wake up! or stand up! Long: oops.. I got a typo in my post, I'll go and change it. Shy: I forgot what shy meant at the time of posting and looked up my dictionary I have downloaded to my computer... what I posted was the meanings it gave me... guess I should have asked my husband :) | |
