#skam translation
Dear awesome Skam-translating people,
Thank you. Thank you for allowing me to watch this incredible show in a language that I don’t understand (but am now trying to learn!). Skam has brought so much joy into my life this past month that I’ve been watching it (and yes I binged season 1 and 2 as well!!). I’ve been going through some difficult times lately, and knowing that I have Skam to look forward to has just brightened my days. Seeing all the love unfold between Isak and Even has been so beautiful to watch, and the fact that I am able to watch it because of you is such an incredible thing. You may think you’re just translating a show, but you are doing so much more for people than you realize. You are bringing joy, love, and hope to people who really need it. Sure, NRK may be telling the story, but you guys are making it accessible to SO many people who need a story like this. A story full of love, hope, and acceptance; about overcoming the most difficult challenges; about feeling like no matter what happens, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. A story that teaches us to just take life as it comes, day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute. With all the pain and destruction happening all over the world, with all the bigotry and hate that we witness or see on the news, Skam is truly helping to change and educate people. And by translating this beautiful work of art, you are showing the ultimate act of kindness so that these lessons can reach millions of people.
I thank you endlessly, and all I ask is that you don’t stop doing it. When season 4 comes around, Isak and Even will no longer be the centre of the storyline. But whoever the main character is, and whatever their story is, it is going to be important. It is going to be a story that people need to hear. So please, keep doing what you’re doing. Keep translating Skam for the world. Keep making the world a better place.
Dere betyr så mye for meg. Jeg elsker dere alle.

EID MOMBARAK* Elias!
Hello?
I need some help. I’m doing some research on Eid for Sana
What is Eid?
Is it Mohammad’s birthday?
On Internet, it says that it’s a bit like Christmas Eve
maybe
It’s not Mohammad’s birthday
When is his birthday then?
Do I come for Maghrib or Iftar? Do I bring snacks and presents? Should I wear flat shoes? A folk costume? Jewelry? Are we going to dance? Can I contribute to songs from a Spotify playlist? Are there specific Eid shops?
just go down to Grønland and ask for a standard Eid package
And remember that when you pay in stores, you have to enter the pin code backwards since Arab countries read from the right
Eid package here I come
~~~
* A common greeting wishing a blessed Eid

Sealed the deal. Came with flowers and I’m invited to a party
awesome
Bro show some respect
why you’re not in love with her
What makes you say that
Are you?
Think so
then you’re not in love
What the hell
you wouldn’t say you THINK SO
you want her because she doesn’t want you
It was the same when it started between you and Nora then. Are you not in love with her either?
I am
What’s the difference?
I KNOW
And?
You would too. You didn’t have that moment that changed everything
Lol
But it will happen to you at some point
It’s happening with Eva
Ok I have your back bro it’s awesome that’s you’re joining the party on Saturday

Fucking hell
I love you
*link to Even’s birthday video*
Come sit with me then
You know it’s 9.21pm
You know I was born at 9.21pm
Swear it
I swear
Now I have a boner
Should we leave
We can’t leave it’s your birthday
I can decide, it’s my birthday
~~~
Here’s a quick explanation for the 9.21pm because I know some people are always confused about this: in European time we write it 21.21 & it comes from Even and Isak’s first kiss (Even asked the time when they bailed on their girlfriends and it was 21.21, and the clip aired at 21.21 and was named “21:21”), then Even used it during the O Holy Night clip (”I’m standing here and it’s 21.21”), then we learnt that it was Isak’s hour of birth too, then Isak posted a reference to it on Instagram, and I think the fact that the first message between Even and Isak during season 4 was posted at 12.12 was another reference to this.
tl;dr 21.21 (aka 9.21pm) is the ultimate Evak hour :)

Girl Chris & Eva

Eva, it was nice of you to say to Emma that we should take care of each other. You’re really mature
Really??? Shit that’s good to hear, I felt very awkward
Did you know they had a thing going on?
Nope
Because Jonas and I hooky-hooked up last Thursday
Oi
You fucked?
don’t tell anyone
Ofc no
So yeah, I got a little stressed
I didn’t know you were fucking
We don’t, that was the first time since we broke up. It just happened
Damn
But I feel bad for Chris because he’s home from the military and we’re doing stuff
Yeah what’s up with Chris?
Chris is Chris
No emotions?
I don’t know he’s so random, yesterday he came at my door with flowers and I totally cringed
Lame
I know he’s trying to be romantic, but it’s like it’s not real, like he’s faking it
It’s a bit like, once a fuckboy always a fuckboy
I don’t really see a fuckboy. I see a boy who always wants to hang out with you
❤️
Maybe you’re right
You’re so nice Chris
