Norwegian girl.. NO! You can not sell it donate it or give away old relics you find.. Anything you find that date from before 1650 is state property, but you can get a finder fee for it.... And often you will get more value from that then the value of the actual item.. You can actually be punished by huge fines and even jail time if you dont turn in things you find..

[@victorm6430]

As a Swede, this is probably the first time I've understood more Danish than Norwegian. The Danish was surprisingly easy to comprehend, while the Norwegian sounded like mumbling, making it difficult to catch every word she said.

This is coming from a Swede: Norwegians and Danes of whatever dialect seem to understand Swedish with no problem. I can generally understand the "main" dialect of Norwegian (like the one they would speak in the capital Olso for the most part), but there's another northern Norwegian dialect that has many completely different words and expressions, and while I might recognize some of them due to this or that Norwegian series or film I've watched, it is a bit tricky. Still, we'd get through to eachother. Danish, on the other hand, is a completely different beast. Written Danish is no problem, but the phonetics of the spoken language is just insane. I say this with no intended disrespect, but basically it sounds like early 80s Arnold Schwarzenegger is trying to speak, while getting tasered AND having a stroke. o.O

[@pallew]

As a Dane, Norwegian is much easier to both understand and read. Some Swedish dialects are easier. And don't flatter your self, Swedish sounds like a little 8 yr old boy singing

[@znail4675]

The Swedish Food controversy mentioned was about feeding others children as it's traditionally is not done unless agreed on. This have more to do with the parents being upset if the children already eaten and can't participate in the family dinner or that the food is something the parents don't want their children to eat. It's not like there is any lack of food in Sweden making children need feeding by strangers. This led to the controversial situation with a foreign child sitting in the room of the friend while the friend and family were eating. But this is more of a communication problem and is something that never ever happened to me. Most parents will assume the child will leave by themself to get home in time for their own dinner. If it's known that they are staying over dinner so would it be natural to ask the child to check with it's parents if it's OK for them to eat there.

The Norwegian girl said several incorrect things. The red russ are the generalists. They can study anything in university. The blue russ are basically the same, except they had more subjects relating to business. Only red/blue qualify for higher learning. Correct: The black russ are trade school grads. She left out the green russ, which graduate from agricultural school.

Also said you have to graduate to be able to party/russefest(which i assume means be a russ), which is wrong.

[@aanonidance]

Also-black and green russ can go on to study after trade school if they just take a couple extra high school courses, the system is made so that anyone can take higher education in the end if they want! Some times i regret not becoming black russ as you both learn a trade, and can go to university after, i think that's a great idea.

Blue russ doesn't really exist anymore. The economy specializing was removed when "Allmennfag" become "Studiespesialiserende" in 2006. You had to go economy to become a blue russ. If we gonna be real there is only red russ left the others are wannabes.

Norway and Iceland are kinda the same. remember: people from Iceland are originally norwegians. Our roots are the same. Icelandic culture is probably more akin to western parts of Norway in terms of farming and fishing and such but culturally Norway and Iceland are very similar. Especially the historical parts of culture. The big difference is how norwegian "evolved" or absorbed other languages into it, like latin or other germanic languages.

If you FIND viking artifacts... it IS illegal to keep it. There are laws that give the STATE the legal rights to all such findings. So not illegal to look at your own property. But it is illegal to keep it. And illegal to sell for profit etc. So basicly the state will confiscate it all. And you get nothing. In addition, the state my turn your property into a dig site. So when you fibd something, it is best to not tell a soul. And try to put dirt on top of it as if never existed;) Because it can become a nightmare. And you would not even be able to sell your property, without mentioning it. And noone would buy your property... because it can become a nightmare to own (because of the state can do almost whatever they want when arvhelogically historical values are at play).

[@paulruano1903]

And if you try to DESTROY the artifact? Oh boy then you are in derp troubles. Some have done that, and it can lead to massive fines. Not small misdemeanor fines, but very very high fines. So never tru to find such artifacts. It is never a good idea. If you think there is something... then either burry it without knowing anything about it... or sell your property beford knoeing about it. Because if you know about it, then you are legally obligated to mention it in the salesreport to potential buyers of property

[@Asa...S]

I don't know about Norway and Denmark, but in Sweden, you have to report it, but you will get paid, they won't just take confiscate it. "Inlösensersättning (I'm not sure how to translate this word, it's like "redemtion compensation") will be given for artifacts found during other circumstanced thatn in and by a ancient monument. The government has the right to be the first buyer, which means that the finder has to offer the state to buy the objects. The "redemtion compensation" is the full economic value of the object, and it's not tax exempt. Artifacts that the state doesn't want to pay for, is returned to the finder. The cultural historic value of the find is usually larger than it's economic value".

[@StoltHD]

@@Asa...S - It's the same in Norway, but if someone try to do something illegal, like selling it, the items will be confiscated and you get nothing... in addition to a high fine and/or prison.

[@paulruano1903]

@@visualdarkness no idea what makes no sense to you. But as stated... Icelandic people is decended from the norwegian vikings. And even more: due to how isolated Iceland is, the Icelandic DNA today is very much similar to the original Norwegian vikings from almost 1000 years ago. (Icelandic people has not mixed with so many different people through history after the Norwegian vikings established colony in Iceland). Ok, was not that hard to understand?. Now next, about the rest if the nordic countries?. Yes, they are very much the same people also!. With exception of the finish people. So lets concentrate about the 3 scandinavian countrues: Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Thry have been part of each other "empire/,kingdoms" through the last 1000 years+. Duting the black plague in Europe, the norwegian kingdom got so devestated because almost all the educated people died due to the black plague. So norway went back to the "dark ages". A total collapse of civilization. So norway in a last effort to not completly end up into savagery and anarchy and whats worse... contacted Denmark to ask to voluntarly become a part of Denmark. Denmark then sent one of its sons to become the new king of Norway. And in addition danish upperclass (the educated populatio) mass-integrated into Norway to take over all the idle positions of jobs that required education etc. Norway became defacto part of Denmark. Much later Denmark-Norway allied itself with Napoleon. Napoleon lost the war... Denmark as an ally had to pay retribution to Sweden (whom was on the other side). Sweden then got Norway as part of the retribution package. But before Sweden could gets its soldiers back home from the european continent... the norwegians quickly assembked a meeting and rebelled. The norwegians would have militarywise been absolutely no match against the swedes at that time. But when the swedes came home, they surprised the norwegians with a deal. Norway would get its partly independence again, but under swedish lojalty/control. So from 1814 norway got its modern constitution... but was ruled by swedish king until aprox 1906 or something. Then norway got its own king (from denmark). And full independence. But thst is just the latest interconnections between the scandinavian countrues. There has been maany various formations between the 3 countrues all back to viking age. Invluding norway and sweden being part of an emoire. And it all resulted in a lot of trade between eachother, close relationships, same language (only minir deviations as would find in dialects). And if you go all the way back to viking ages... it was those 3 scandinavian countrues that was behind the vikings in Europe:) Allthough at thst time it was still many smaller viking lords (not united into countries). And as a BONUS, ever wondered why Russians (slavs) look so similar in many ways to the scandinavians? (More higher levels of blond hair, blue eyes, etc)?. The 2st Russian empire was formed in what is today Kiev ukraine. But at that time it was called the "Kiev Rus" empire. The 1st russian empire. It is about 1000 years ago. But right before that happend... Kiev was a small rivercity. And the swedish vikings had traveled (mostly for trade and raids) down through the lakes from north europe all the way down to the black sea. 1 of those rivercitues they parked in for trade and youknowwhat was Kiev. So the vikings very much breeded through the original kiev etc area. At that time the place was a mix of turkish, viking heritage, and russian tribes, etc. (Or what we today consider heritage from todays vikings, russians, etc). Not long after a "russian" prince (tribe from one of the region which is today russian) conquered kiev and created the 2st Russian empire called "Kiev Rus". Population at those times in history is nowhere near todays population. So example viking interbreeding with the population had much more impact then, compared to what wpuld have been the instance with how big a population is now. It was a very small rivercity. Not a multimillion city. Etc. Many think Russians are only 1 ethnicity, but that is wrong. Russians has many ethnicities. But when people mention "the russian ethnicity" they are usually refering to the slavs ethnicity. Which ironicly has mix of viking ethnicity also. So history has many interesting accidengly roadpaths. And since populationlevels was much smaller at those times... it had great impact in changes. Finish population however is a very different story than the scandinavians. It has its own unique story. With eventually some interactions with the scandinavians. But they are pretty much their own ethnicity with their own unique language which has no resemblance to the scandinavian language(s). (Things are retold from memory, so may be some smaller deviations). Bonus2: Danish vikings interacted into the english/uk, and made a footprint there. It is not ssme size footprint due to wngland had higher population. But it still had a big enough footprint, including royalty genes if i remember correctly.

All rights included (free hospitals/medical, movement, trade rights, etc). Those same rights applies today. Even when Norway is not member of EU. When you are so intertwinned boyh genetic, common history, and culture becomes pretty much the same. They are currently 3 countries. But thry are the same. Only real difference is: Norway: 5mill people Richer (due to oil, gass, fish, timber, and watereneegy). Denmark: 6-7 million or so...(?) Semi-rich, but not as rich as Norway. But still rich. And the most racist/xenophobic of the 3 countries. Language is more "braut/harder" tone. It almost spunds like they are about to puke tbh;). Sweden: 11 million (aprox) Semi-rich, but the poorest of those 3 countries. But a more healthy buisness system (not so reliant on natural resources). The most emphatic and warm of those 3 countries. Language, it has the softest tones of the 3 scandinavians. The 3 countries are the same. The language is basicly the same. Internally dialects have more deviations compared to the 3 languages in itself. Example denmark has some dislects that most danish people do not understand;) So the "slogan" that the 3 countrues is the same... is very fitting and correct. It is like 3 siblings. They are the same... but off course not 100% identical. But they are so the same/identical that they could easily step in and pretend they represented each other.

You can not choose to "keep it or sell it" lol if you find Viking relics, it's not yours, by law. The Korean guy is 100% correct that it is illegal (what she says) 😅😅 Also it is not common at all to find these things (just like the rest of the world and their respective heritage sites). However, a 1000 year old sword was recently found in Norway (can't remember where) and remarkably it had partly or fully Frankish design (so either from conquest or from trading). The farmer - obviously - contacted the local police/authorities and it will be taken care of, restored and probably put in a museum. Cultural heritage is *NOT* for you to "keep or sell". Not even _close._

I'm norwegian. I understand swedish, since I heard swedish people talking both on tv and in real life since I was a kid and can understand some danish. But for me danish is easier to read than have a conversation with someone in danish😅

[@livedandletdie]

Yeah people who don't speak regional dialects have it quite easy speaking to each other... Now get someone from Steinkjer in Norway, someone from Älvdalen, Sweden, and someone from Haderslev, Denmark. Oh boy, it would be as impossible for people to understand each other as it could possibly become, and this isn't the only such composition of Scandinavians I can think of.

The thing with "not serving food to kids friend" was taken a bit out of context. This person with immigrated parents who brought this up was talking about his youth. In like the 80s and maybe into the 90s (before the internet era and mobile era) it was common that you eat home with your family. It was just how our culture was. Dinner was a family thing. Also, in an dense populated area as I grew up in we were a lot of kids hanging out and sometime went home to someone to play Nintendo or whatever. Than the parents come home from work. Why would they expect there to be a bunch of kids to serve some extra food. Most likely the parents of each kids did not even know each other in such an area. Also most likely they did not buy food more than for them and their children. Remember, this was before mobile was introduced to the mass. Today if my kids have friends over, I ask them if they want to eat but they have to ask their parents first. That was not possible in the 80s and early 90s. No you went home to eat at dinner time (5-6 pm) then you went out again to play with your friends.

[@visualdarkness]

My family was not like that when growing up, although none of my parents are Swedish, but I completely agree with it being taken out of context. It was all about not taking that sacred dinner time away from the other families, where they could bond with their children. Very few would have said now if they were asked to serve the friend some food, it was about respect.

If you find historical artificial in Norway, you don’t get it. It belongs to the state. Before you start to search with a metal detector, you have to ask the owner of the land you want to search. If you find something of high value, you get 10% of the value of the mineral, or in SPECIAL cases you can get up to 10% of the general market value. It’s illegal to keep or bring the findings out of the country. I believe the Norwegian girl was just joking around. Anyway, it’s hard to find something of value. If it was as easy like she said, it would be farmers with metal detectors everywhere.

I would suggest getting an actual norwegian for this. Aside from genetics what makes a norwegian is the culture of which she seems to know very little based on how virtually nothing was said about it and how she didn't get the Russ colors right, as well as the norwegian language which is drowned out by her heavy asian accent. Regarding the artifacts you might find she is simply wrong. You may not keep what you find to yourself. Norway and Iceland are absolutely not the same. Iceland is not even in Scandinavia. I'm not suggesting you need an expert, but if I can spot these flaws most probably can. To some extent it goes for the Swede as well; You cannot ride a bike to Denmark. The bridge connecting Sweden to Denmark does not allow bikes.

[@bloodyfitnerd1947]

Leave your racism at the door, her accent was a trondheim accent (trønder). Yes she got things wrong with the russ, and iceland and norway isn't the same. Also you're wrong about the not being able to ride a bike to denmark from sweden, as she said it would take a very long time, because you'd have to go through Norway then take the boat to Denmark, or Finland, Russia Estonia latvia lithuania poland germany and then denmark (obv would not want to get into russia now because of the war and stuff, but the point is, it's not impossible to ride a bike from sweden to denmark, it would just take a very long time ) and yes she got the artifact thing wrong but a lot of norwegians don't know that, which is why a lot of people get fined when the goverement find out that they found something and didn't report it.

[@Enchisedmy]

@@bloodyfitnerd1947 Racism? Wanna elaborate on that? Pretty big word to throw around with absolutely zero reasoning. If you truly want to nitpick about the ability to bike to norway it is technically possible but given the context of them talking about how far south she lives as they're asking if she can bike to denmark I thought they meant the only relevant connection nearby. I still think that's what they meant. Others getting things wrong just makes them less suited for this kind of chat. Just like it does with her. So the "other norwegians get it wrong too" doesn't carry any weight. Obviously I'm not suggesting you replace her with somebody else who doesn't know XYZ. I'm suggesting you replace her with somebody who does. Edit: Another note on the bike thing would be, since you mentioned using public transport to "cheat" you could do the same directly from Malmö in Sweden via train across the same bridge you can't bike over.

[@bloodyfitnerd1947]

@@Enchisedmy "get an actual norwegian" With a sentence like that, anyone would think you're saying she's not norwegian based on her looks being typically asian. They got an actual Norwegian, just because she doesn't have white hair and blue eyes doesn't mean she's not Norwegian.

[@Enchisedmy]

@@bloodyfitnerd1947 Right... So nationality and genetics are the same? If I, pale as a ghost, acquire a Ugandan citizenship, do you think they'd feel fairly represented by me?

[@bloodyfitnerd1947]

@@Enchisedmy Sure let's play your game, lets assume this white person you're talking about isn't born in Uganda (because there are white people in a lot of African countries who are born there and are 100% african) Lets say this is a white person in their 20s who want a Ugandan citizenship, so first of all that's a big difference from being born in Norway but possibly have asian parents, or maybe only one of her parents are asian and her mother or father is Norwegian, sure maybe she's even adopted, still she would be considered Norwegian, and not "an asian who got a citizenship" You're straight up saying now that she's not Norwegian because she looks Asian, so yeah, that's racist.

This topic is just bullshit, the Low Saxon German language influenced and modernized the Nordic languages, it was the driving factor in their emancipation from Old Norse. Proto Norse was born in northern Germany and moved further north to the Scandinavian and Nordic countries. Germany is a Germanic nation and has always been sister to the Nordic countries. This whole topic is just rubbish, nonsense and stupidity, just shit, they don't know their own culture and they still discriminate against other brotherly Germanic countries, just shit-talking and shit-eating bastards here.
