That Raske Menn song is actually in Danish (for some reason...)
This means that the pronunciation is "wrong"", and some of the words have different meanings. Edited by stifa on 08 January 2013 at 7:38pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Oh, I did 2 or 3 lessons from prof Łęcki's book in December. Now I've been studying with Assimil for a week so it's still pretty fresh. It's hard to say really. I hope I can keep up the motivation. How about you? You've been learning for over 3 months now, right? Can you understand a lot from reading or listening?
Oh, thanks for letting us know. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I've been learning Norwegian for about 4 months and it's going pretty good. I started with ESSk (or something like that, I don't remember the name of this course)and I covered about 15 lessons that gave me basics so to speak. Later on I switched to Pa Vei and I'm really satisfied with the book. Few days ago I started the second part of this book which is aimed at B1 level ;) Of course, I don't understand everything for instance while watching TV or listening to clips on you tube but I can grasp certain words and that's making me happy ;) However, now I'm in the middle of examination at my university so I'll have a little break from Norwegian. Anyhow, I have to achieve B2 level at the and of June or July at latest.
Stifa, thanks for information! I didn't realize the fact that song is in Danish but I heard a few words that had a different pronunciation, for example 'kjaereste'? Am I correct? Or the pronunciation of the word 'prosent'? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

In Danish, it is "kæreste", and we Norwegians like to joke about Danish sounding like
they've got a potato stuck in their throuts - that should explin the differences in pronunciation. :p 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

You're making great progress!
I was wondering, you say you want lever B2 at the end of June/July because you're going to take an exam. What kind of exam is it? And what are you planning to do with your Norwegian skills once you get to that level? Planning on moving there? 3 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

B2 test of Norwegian is known as Bergenstesten
and it can be taken in either Bokmaal or Nynorsk. The complete name is Test i norsk-høyere nivå /Test i norsk-høgare nivå . It's called Bergenstesten, informally, because: 1. it was developed @ Bergen university 2. 50% of listening material features the Bergen dialect/accent (and 50% of listening material is Standard East Norwegian accent/Bokmaal).

Why would they inflict that upon you? :p Just kidding of course. Bergensk, and especially the posh Begensk is very easy to understand compared to other Western dialects. 1 person has voted this message useful |
