Present vs. Future Exercises For Norwegian Grammar

Language proficiency through rigorous grammar exercises 

In Norwegian language, the present and future tense are relatively straightforward. The present tense is basically the verb stem plus the ending “-r”. However, the future tense is formed, in most cases, by using the present tense and adding the word “skal” before the verb. There are also instances where “vil” can be used before the verb to express intention or desire. Here, these two tenses will be practiced.

Exercise 1: Fill in the missing word to complete the sentence in present tense.
