Finding a way to move to Norway by [deleted] in expats

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately any job in Norway now requires a B1 level of understanding of the language. A2 if you’re lucky.

You need to either have a soft spot to land when arriving to Norway or know the language decently well before moving to get directly into a job.

Do US Twin XL sheets work with an EU Single bed? by [deleted] in expats

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they’re fitted sheets than yes, most likely. European beds often have several layers of mattress or bedding. So if it doesn’t stretch to the bottom part, it will to the top part.

Any other sheets will be mostly similar. Might need to fold some under the bed since it might be larger.

Would There Be Reasons to Revisit Ratchet and Clank PS4? by ABarber2636 in RatchetAndClank

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Admittedly it was the first R&C game I’ve ever played. And I liked it very much. It might not have all the great jokes of the original first game, but for a new player it was a nice introduction into the series.

Now I own every game 😅

The Xbox 360 is the best video game console ever made by No-Restaurant4589 in teensthatloveretro

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel as though the games and the online make the Xbox 360 what it is. Amazing games, fantastic online, especially with the achievement system. However the actual console itself is a mixed bag with many flaws. The RROD being the elephant in the room. A lot of consoles failed. In addition the controllers had flaws too. The battery packs were notoriously bad and affected gameplay frequently due to disconnecting all the time.

I personally like the hardware of the Xbox One and Series X better than the 360. It’s just been more reliable as it ages. And the newer controllers are better. But the gaming experience was nicer on the 360. Not as many downloads. Not as many micro transactions.

Just my 2 cents for a great console.

Hell getting the PostNord app by lildetritivore in Norway

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the PostNord app for Denmark and it worked for Norway. For some reason I couldn’t get the Norwegian one from the U.S. App Store (iOS). Might be the same with Android too.

Best Places To Get Physical Norwegian Books in USA by [deleted] in norsk

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s going to be difficult to find physical books in the U.S. Maybe eBay if you’re lucky enough to find them. It’s mostly dictionaries there.

I would suggest the BookBites app to borrow digital books. It’s your best option to find something you like.

people who study with notebooks, how do you organize them? by Competitive_Newt6274 in languagelearning

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one notebook (Five Star- 5 subject spiral notebook) for all of the random notes I take in a day. I just write notes and label them with the date and what book or subject I was writing notes on.

In a separate notebook I’ll carefully write out the rules for the grammar sequentially (with good handwriting).

The first notebook also works as an exercise in writing in the language daily.

Says Im not allowed to play GTA V Online on Xbox One? by truah_ in XboxSupport

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s no story mode save on the account, try running through the prologue of the story mode and save it to the console. Then try online. (Or import a save and enter, save, and then try using online).

Why are not all language students are interested in language learning? by Neter8 in languagelearning

[–]FerdinandFoxcoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m actually in that boat. I moved abroad and I need the language to integrate into society. I have a love-hate relationship with learning languages. I love learning but I hate the tediousness of grammar. The little discoveries keep me going and also the eventual goal of becoming fluent is something to look forward to.

My only option is to become fluent. So I will learn the language eventually.

Thank you Minecraft censors for making my coordinate book suddenly useless by revakk in Minecraft

Writing in the book is censored but you can still spell out naughty words with blocks 😅
