Basic Grammar #14 - Subclauses! "fordi de alltid smiler"

Description:

In Norwegian language there is a slight change in word order every time you have a subclause with an adverb.

Ex:
Det er ikke regn. (Normal sentence)
Hun sykler fordi det ikke er regn. (Subclause with "fordi")

The rule is this:
1. subjunksjon (hvis, at, fordi.. osv.)
2. subjekt (person/ting)
3. adverb (ikke, ofte, sjelden, aldri etc.)
4. verb

Fill-ins:
Marco sier ............................... (han - sykler - aldri - at).
Britt drar på ferie ............................... (hun - er - syk - ikke - hvis).
Butikken stenger ............................... (det - er - kunder - ikke - fordi).

..

Great work! :))
