I decided I couldn't wait until New Year's Eve to start my new log. You will find it here. Edited by mick33 on 18 December 2012 at 11:27am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I might write something in Danish next week, but I don't really have the motivation for it this week.
Here you can find the first draft (=uncorrected version) of a small paper I wrote in Norwegian a while back. My log will also be mostly in Norwegian, so there will be plenty of opportunity to assess my Norwegian at the start of the challenge.

Has the team leader already been chosen? If not, I second that notion. Rules are made to be bent anyway. Edited by daegga on 18 December 2012 at 6:47pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

I'm not an officially on the team, but if I were, I'd vote for Julie.
I actually have a request too: My two favorite programs on NRK Play are Brille and Nytt på nytt. Could one of the resident Norwegian experts give them a quick look and tell me if the hosts' and guests' dialects are more or less representative of the standard Norwegian. Edit: I was able to look a lot of these people up on Wikipedia and it seems most of the recurring cast are from Oslo and neigboring regions. Among those who sounded "standard" to me were people from Oslo, Akershus, Østfold and Telemark. Comments?

Not an expert, but here you go (thanks for pointing those programs out, by the way):
in Brille, the guy with gray hair doesn't sound "standard" in Nytt på nytt, the thickish half-bold guy doesn't sound "standard", I think there was also a woman who didn't sound "standard", but there were so many people, I couldn't really keep track during my small peek The others sound pretty much like speaking textbook Norwegian to me.

Even though she lacks a TAC experience, Julie is a senior forum member and she took the lead in setting up this team. And as no other name seems to have come up as possible candidate for team captain (apart from Fasulye who kindly declined) and the deadline is tonight, I give my vote to Julie.
------ Here’s my 10-minute challenge: without dictionary and a grammar that was tough! Hej! Jag heter M. (på italienska heter bokstaven ‘Emme’, som är också mitt nickname i det här forumet). Jag kommer från norra Italien. Jag gillar att lära mig språk. Jag talar engelska, tyska och lite svenska och naturligtvis italienska. Jag har lärt svenska på min egen hand i några år. Jag kan förstå svenska ganska bra när jag läser en bok eller en tidning eller när jag tittar en textad tv-programm, men jag kan inte tala eller skriva flyttande svenka. Jag hoppas att jag kommer att förbättra mina kunskaper i 2013. Lycka till, Team Viking! Edited by Emme on 18 December 2012 at 7:52pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Julie is a great candidate:) De facto some of the requirements are:
-language learning experience -technical "literacy" -being serious about the language(s) of the team and not just dabbling. She has all of these:))) 1 person has voted this message useful |
