Hi folks,
What is the best translation for : En gang løven lå og tok seg en lur, kom ei lita mus løpende tvers over snuten på
ham.
My shot: Once the lion laid down and took a nap, a little mouse came running across his muzzle.
Is it correct ? Thanks in advance,’

I have gone through the same lesson. I would say your translation is 100% correct, but I am not Norwegian. Just studying it like you! Good luck with your studies!

That sounds perfect to me, well done!
Hmmm… The norwegian sentence sounds funny to me…
"En gang løven lå og tok seg en lur, kom ei lita mus løpende tvers over snuten på ham. "
Det er vel bedre å si “En gang da løven lå og tok seg en lur, kom ei lita mus løpende tvers over snuten hans”
However, the translation to English sounds fine to me.
