With all the activity regarding Sámi, I thought you might like an English translation
(probably not perfect) of the Norwegian subtitles of an episode of a Sámi children's
programme. I remember Chung mentioning in his log that he was trying to watch some of
the shows on NRK, but that the subtitles weren't of much help. I'm no expert at
translating, and I'm also not Norwegian, so it might be a little rough at times, but
hopefully it'll still come in handy.

This is the link for the programme in question.
Mánáid-tv on NRK

And here's the document with subtitles and translation.

Mánáid-tv 24.11.11

Enjoy!

EDIT: I thought I'd add some info on the main antagonist of the programme, the stallo.

Stallo, a supernatural creature in Sámi tradition. There are two types, an emissary,
often a ghost, which a Noaidi (shaman) conjures up to hurt or kill his enemies (some
tales tell of this kind of stallo), or as a creature in human form, but bigger and
stronger than a man. This kind of Stallo is found in many stories and fairy tales. He
is a kind of troll, eats humans and steals children, and he also drives a strange kind
of raido (sleigh), drawn by mice or lemmings, and visits camp sites at Christmas,
demanding presents. This Stallo may have a historical background in memories of Nordic
or Russian tax collectors. (Found Here )

Mange tak, Peter!
