Skype list update:
- Kez
- Expugnator
- Solfrid_Cristina
- Julie
- Sans-serif
- Jeff_lindqvist [Et voila!]
- Liddytime
- AnaV
- Marya
I guess we have enough people. Maybe we should add our Skype names and pick a date? I
think Sunday is the best day to do this. Are we all in the same time-zone?

No Skype session for me unless you spell my user name correctly. ;) (hint: no "g")
Sunday is the best day for me.

Challenges - Norwegian (please correct):
1. Write five sentences introducing yourself
Hallo! Jeg heter Expug. Jeg bor i Brasil og er tjueåtte år gammel. Jeg har alltid en
god tid når jeg studerer fremmedspråk. Jeg liker å lese bøker men ikke så mye aviser og
magasiner. Jeg går på helsetudio hver dag om morgenen og jeg arbeider om ettermidagen.
2. Write three sentences about who you have in your family
Jeg bor ikke sammen med familien min. De bor i Bahia og jeg bor i Minas Gerais. Faren,
moren og yngre bror bor sammen, men min eldre søster er gift og bor med hennes mann og
min nevø.
3. Describe a friend in six sentences. What does she/he look like? What is she/he like
as a person?
Dette venn av meg er to år yngre enn meg. Vi arbeidet i samme selskapet, men ikke
lenger nå. Han er ikke så høy og bare litt overvektig. Han bruker briller (slik som
jeg, selv om jeg vanligvis bruker kontaktlinser i dag). Han liker å drikke øl. Han bor
med moren hans.
4. Give a five-sentence long description of the town or city you live in.
Jeg bor i en stor by. Sin metro området har så mange innbyggere som Norge :D Byen er
omgitt av høye fjell. Det ligger fjernt fra havet. Innbyggere dens savner havet helt
år.
5. Which languages do you speak? How well do you speak them? Where did you learn
them?
Jeg snakker portugiesisk som er mitt morsmål. Jeg kan også noe engelsk, fransk og
forstår litt spansk. Jeg lærte spansk og engelsk på språkskolen og fransk lærte jeg
selv. |

I'm on the Pacific US Time zone so that would work for me - my son gets up at 6:30 anyway so I'll probably be up.
my skype name is liddytime2 (who knew there was more than 1 liddytime?!?!) I have never done a conference call
with Skype before, are there any tricks?
Sorry about the lack of posts from me. I have been destroyed by this awful flu that would keep a "real" Viking off of
his ship!
I'm on the mend though so I should be able to get back into the Norsk studies soon. Sadly NRK is blocked outside of
Norway. I have been trying to find some Norwegian TV to watch online. Have any of you Vikings found any?

Have you had a look at Youtube? The Ylvis episodes are there (if you're into talk shows), and even nrk.no has a channel.
