Kan du bore et hull i gipsveggen i morgen?

Because Norwegian uses verb-second (V2) word order in main clauses. In questions, the verb typically comes first:

• Kan du bore …? = Can you drill …?
  In a normal statement you’d say:
• Du kan bore … = You can drill …

So the inversion (verb before subject) is the standard way to form yes/no questions.

Bore means to drill (make a hole using a drill). It’s the natural verb when the tool is a drill.
Related verbs you might see:

• lage et hull = make a hole (more general; doesn’t specify the method)
• stikke et hull = poke a hole (with something pointed)
• skjære et hull = cut a hole (with a knife/saw)

So bore et hull strongly implies drilling.

Because hull is a neuter noun in Norwegian, so it uses the article et:

• et hull (a hole)
  Indefinite articles:
• en = masculine/feminine common gender
• et = neuter

Also note the definite form:

• hullet = the hole

Norwegian often uses the definite form when referring to a specific, known thing in the situation, even if English might say a or just omit it. Here, the speaker likely means the drywall wall (we both know which one).

If you mean “a drywall wall” in general/unspecified, you could say:

• i en gipsvegg = in a drywall wall (sounds more generic/less specific)

The definite form gipsveggen implies the listener can identify the wall.

It’s a compound noun + definite ending:

• gips = gypsum/drywall (material)
• vegg = wall
  Together: gipsvegg = drywall wall
  Definite singular: gipsveggen = the drywall wall

Norwegian commonly forms compounds as one word, unlike English which often uses two words.

vegg is common gender (often called “masculine” in Bokmål teaching materials), so the definite singular ending is -en:

• en vegg → veggen

Typical definite endings:

• common gender: -en (e.g., bilen, veggen)
• feminine (optional in Bokmål): -a (e.g., jenta)
• neuter: -et (e.g., huset, hullet)

Because with making a hole, you’re going into the wall, so i (in/into) is used:

• bore et hull i veggen = drill a hole in/into the wall

På (on) is used for something located on the surface:

• Det henger et bilde på veggen. = A picture is hanging on the wall.

Yes, Norwegian word order is fairly flexible with time adverbs, but there are typical patterns.

Common placements:

• End position (very common): Kan du bore et hull i gipsveggen i morgen?
• Earlier for emphasis: Kan du i morgen bore et hull i gipsveggen? (more marked)
• Fronted time (then V2 still applies): I morgen kan du bore et hull i gipsveggen? (this sounds like a question but often feels more like Tomorrow, can you…?; many speakers would still prefer Kan du … i morgen?)

The given version is the most natural neutral question.

Kan du …? is a normal, polite everyday request in Norwegian—similar to English Can you…?.

If you want it softer/more formal, you can use:

• Kunne du boret et hull i gipsveggen i morgen? (Could you drill…?; very common)
• Kan du være så snill å bore …? (Could you please…?)
• Har du mulighet til å bore …? (Do you have the possibility to…?)

So your sentence is perfectly fine, especially in spoken Norwegian.

Because after a modal verb like kan (can), Norwegian uses the bare infinitive (without å):

• kan bore (can drill)
• vil bore (want to drill)
• må bore (must drill)
• skal bore (shall/going to drill)

You use å with a normal infinitive construction:

• Jeg liker å bore hull. = I like to drill holes.

Yes, but the meaning changes:

• Kan du bore … i morgen? = Can you / Are you able to / Would you…? (request/ability)
• Vil du bore … i morgen? = Do you want to / Will you…? (asks willingness; can sound more like checking if they’re willing)
• Skal du bore … i morgen? = Are you going to drill … tomorrow? (more like asking about a plan, not requesting)

For a request, kan du or kunne du are the most typical.

A few common points for English speakers:

• Kan du is often reduced in speech to something like kan du with a quick du; sometimes you’ll hear a more merged rhythm.
• bore: the o is a long vowel in many dialects; r can be tapped/trilled depending on region.
• hull: the u is like Norwegian u (not the English “uh”), and ll is a clear l sound.
• gipsveggen: stress is typically on the first part of the compound: GIPS-veggen.

Exact pronunciation varies by dialect, but these are the usual learner “gotchas.”
