@AlOlaf
Sorry about that! I noticed that they had started putting the episodes of Borgen online a few weeks ago, but as that series didn’t interest me because it’s in Danish I didn’t pay attention to the expiration date. I took it for granted that the episodes would be available for a month after the broadcast of the last episode as most other series are. I didn’t check and I’m sorry to find out that this is not the case. I have no idea whether they will broadcast them again, but should it happen (and should I notice it) I’ll make a post here! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

No, I really appreciate you going to the trouble to tell us about it. After watching the first two seasons on DVD, I was craving more and didn’t know the third season was available for view anywhere. I got ahold of a synopsis of the third season, so I was able to fill in some of the blanks. It’s an added challenge to watch with the Swedish subtitles and I’m getting to see some of the similarities/differences between the two languages. Tak (tack)!

This Memrise course is the closest I've come across to what you describe. It mostly contains functional words rather than expressions and there are some less useful words in there too, but take a look and see if you find it helpful. Memrise apparently has an some kind of an ignore function built in, so you could block out the words that you're not interested in. The idea of composing a list of our own is a good one, but I don't have the time participate in the effort right now. In any case, the best way to get started would probably be to just translate a list of such connectors in English. It's not optimal but would make it easy for anyone to help out when they have a few minutes to spare. Edited by sans-serif on 29 May 2013 at 11:30am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I just found the following little gem under the title "How are all the Norwegian babies made". It answered a
question I have many times asked myself, when comparing Norwegian and Spanish dating. Norwegian dating is not really dating, and with our general reserved nature, I have never understood how we have survived as a people. It is in Norwegian, but even with just a little knowledge of one of the Scandinavian languages you should get the gist of it.

Nice article! I read it in Norwegian while browsing a Google translation to Portuguese. I came across the word 'kompis' I hadn't met before.

Yes I did, I was just amazed that I hadn't found such an essential word yet :)
