It startet in the westcoast because those that came because of oilbuisness was from Texas. Mostly Huston. They was here to teach us. They didnt mind law and rules to much. They was not to occupied about safty. Thats why we call it “helt Twxas”. Its kind of wild west… like if we do a shortcut partly unleagal we say “jeg tar en spansk en”…

Also note that “rom” (as in “verdensromme”) may also mean “volume, space, extent”

Hey Amy thanks for the kind words. Good luck with the learning. I always think that if you are already multi-lingual you have the upper hand. There is something about using the same parts of your brain even though the languages may not be similar.
Good luck with everything.
If you are based I Oslo you may want to check out language cafes. I know there are a few of these around. Språk kafé. I totally agree that talking with people is the best way to learn.
Lykke til!
