    Funny stuff, can't get a proper dictionary translation to Norweigian from the Swedish "Usch då".

    And I would never seen the connection without being given it. It's changed quite a bit even if it's recognicable.

    It's not that commonly used here. Mostly used as simply Usch and is generally equal to displaying minor displeasure. But then we got ojdå, äsch då, ajdå, so we got plenty of simular expressions.

    Edit: amai= oh my correct?

    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
