Kebabnorsk

Kebabnorsk is a form of Norwegian language that has some words borrowed from other languages, especially Turkish. It's like when you go to a friend's house and try their favorite food and now you want to use some of the words they use when talking about that food. For example, in kebabnorsk, you might hear words like "kebab" which is a yummy sandwich made with meat, "shawarma" which is a type of meat cooked on a rotating spit, or "inshallah" which means "God willing" in Arabic.

It's important to remember that kebabnorsk isn't an official language, but it's a way some people talk to show they know different cultures and ways of speaking. It's like having a secret code between friends who love different kinds of food. Anyone can speak kebabnorsk if they know the words, but it's important to speak Norwegian correctly too.
