I just stumbled upon this List of German cognates with English. Does anybody know of a similar list for any of the Scandinavian languages and/or a list of typical sound/orthography changes between Norwegian (Bokmål), Danish and Swedish?

Try Minordbok (it's meant for kids, but useful for beginners. It's set to Danish on default. As a test, I entered "ord" in the field which then yielded 5 entries in Danish with 'ord'. I then clicked on the Danish flag in the box for 'ord' and then got the counterparts of 'ord' in Bokmål, Nynorsk and Swedish).

There is audo as well, both the word and a sentence using the word. Very useful Chung. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Interesting. I didn't notice those.
Just for a laugh, I just set it to Finnish and punched in several Finnish words off the top of my head to find out their counterparts in Danish, Norwegian and Swedish. 1 person has voted this message useful |
