I am happy to see that you are learning Norwegian. Feel free to ask if there is anything at all I can help you with. No question is too small or too great.

Simple : je m'appelle Alexandre et Arekkusu est l'équivalent japonais d'Alex. Tous les Japonais connaissent le nom Arekkusu, même si c'est un nom étranger, et s'en souviennent facilement quand je l'annonce alors c'est pratique. Au moment de l'inscription, j'étudiais uniquement le japonais alors ça m'a semblé un pseudonyme approprié.

Takk for at du sier du vil gjerne hjelpe meg! Nå trenger jeg å laere mange ord og den norske uttale er litt vanskelig. Denne uken har jeg forsøkt å forstå "Ikke gjør dette hjemme" men jeg kunne ikke forstå ignenting. Kanskje snakker mennerne i showen en dialekt; jeg synes de kommer fra Trondheim.

Thanks for explaining, yes it's appropriate and logic as well. It's a great nick. Maybe the "l" is become "r" becasue the Japanese can't pronounce "l" ? |

Indeed.

Your Norwegian is very, very good! I'd give a lot to be able to write Russian that well. You have only a few really small mistakes that I'll correct for you.

If you like to write more and have it corrected you can send me a PM, or of course just write it here.
And yes, the Norwegian pronunciation does take some getting used to for foreigners, but I know you put special emphasis on that, so I am sure you will do great.

Many thanks for the corrections (and praise)! Placement of gjerne, missing -n on uttalen (should have known), noenting, mennene, show is neutral and tror instead of synes. Noted.
My problem with Norwegian pronunciation is that since I have little opportunity to hear the language in real life (yet!), it's still hard to guess the pronunciation of written words I haven't heard, such as whether /o/ is closer to [ u ] or [o], or if an /e/ should be [e] or [3]. Actually, those are probably my only concerns at this point... That's the only reason I'm going through Pimsleur, otherwise I'd only bother with Teach Yourself.
By the way -- would you happen to know a good online Norwegian dictionary?
