Strange, NRK is working here. Try shows rather than movies, they often don't have the licences to broadcast movies outside of Norway. Just to be clear, the live stream isn't working here either, but the episodes are usually online for 1-2 weeks.

Works for me. Thankfully, that gives me more than enough time to recalibrate my speech organ for Swedish. It's been far too long since I spoke any.

I have no trouble watching NRK Play either. Some programs (most of them?) are georestricted but a lot of NRK's own shows are freely available.

4. Give a five-sentence long description of the town or city you live in.
Jeg bor i en stor by. [Sin metro området] (is this the name of the area?)   

No, I just wanted to talk about the whole metropolitan area with all neighbouring cities/
cities in conurbation instead of only the municipality, and I didn't know how to say that
in Norwegian exactly.

Thanks a lot, Cristina!

Yeah, it's weird. Everything I click, I get this message:
NRK har ikke rettigheter til å vise dette programmet utenfor Norge.
Deler av TV- og radioinnholdet er kun tilgjengelig i Norge. Dette gjelder spesielt program produsert utenfor NRK.
Les mer om våre rettigheter på hjelpesiden.

Even the older shows.
Oh well, You Tube NRK does work though!

Hey folks, sorry for being away for so long... There were a few things that kept me busy.
I'll update my log and let you know :-)

EDIT: By the way, I updated our website with Cristina's new lessons and the 3rd Viking
Challenge.

I just got back from the gym where I was witness to a most bizarre Swedish accent: Finland's Swedish with a Stockholmian twist. As I was taking a breather between my sets, I overheard these two girls talking about accounting in Swedish, and it soon became apparent to me that something was off. One of the girls was clearly a "fennoswede", probably from the Greater Helsinki area, but the other one, as far as I could tell, spoke stockholmska with finlandssvensk prosody. I've never heard anything quite like it! I think she must have been a Swedish exchange student who had changed her accent to sound more like a local. A fascinating little detail that I would have been completely oblivious to, did I not know Swedish. It's good to be a Viking, friends.

How exactly did the "stockholmska" come out? If anything, I think about prosody when I hear "stockholmska" so how that at the same time could have a finlandsvensk prosody is beyond me.
