A question for those of you who do Swedish and Danish. I can often see that something looks odd, but I would not feel confident enough to actually correct it, as I may tell you something that is also wrong, although
in a different way. One way of solving this is that I point out what looks odd to me, and ask you to look it up if possible, another way is that I tell you what I think it might be, a third option (the most sensible one) is to stay away entirely, and let a native speaker take over.
Please mention it at least! It would be fascinating to hear what looks wrong in Swedish and Danish to you.
It's up to you whether you suggest any improvements or just encourage us to look it up/ask the native speakers we know outside TAC. Probably depends on *how* wrong this particular thing looks. I'm sure you'll be more confident about some of the corrections than about others.

Well, it's too late, but anyway I agree with everybody : Julie should be the Team
leader.. Well if you want of course!

Now it's time for my awful 10mintues of Norwegian writing!

First the 5minutes without anything : Jeg heter Mathias bor i Paris. Jeg er et
studenter. Jeg vil sier Norsk og vil gå a Norge. Jeg kan ikke sier Norsk igjen, men jeg
vil studerer Norsk. Jeg har ett bror.

And now for the 5minutes with Dictionnary and else: Jeg studerer virksomhet i Rouen.
Jeg liker lære språkes men Norsk er min første skandinavisk språk. Som følge av, Norsk
er hard. Min bror arbeider i thailand.

Well here it is.. It's quite horrible, but I just started so I guess it's normal!
Thanks for any correction! :)

I corrected some of the mistakes on the word level (I tried not to change too much of the structure, but I had to insert a word here and there).

Do not worry, you are doing great for a beginner! The corrections are very good. There are just a couple of
words that I would improve further:

Språk is neutral so it is "mitt språk". And hard in Norwegian refers to something physical (stone, wood, rock)
hard as in difficult is "vanskelig".

"Det er vanskelig å snakke engelsk"

" Det var en vanskelig oppgave"

" Det er vanskelig å forstå hva han sier"

Thank you everyone for nominating me to the team leader, to Brun Ugle for agreeing to
this, and to Cristina for offering her assistance! I promise I'll be back soon to lead
Vikings to the victory :)

Coughing and sneezing,
Julie

For those who are learning Danish (and are not total beginners anymore):
NRK is broadcasting the Danish series "Lykke" right now, and it's available at their homepage for streaming: here
Compared to the Danish movies I've watched, the language is very well intelligible, I think they use høgkøbenhavnsk instead of the more popular lavkøbenhavnsk. Anyway, it's pretty easy to follow and you get (Norwegian) subtitles if you need them. The episodes are available only for a short period of time though, the second episode is available until next Monday for example.
