Norwegian Language: First Time Communication

[@TheNorthRaven]

I really could, my city is directly (air-line) connected to Oslo during summer months, so hopefully I will come soon. :)

[@laksameesderholm4408]

I'd love to learn Norwegian more and more since I've seen your VDO during waiting for the school open in late August. You made it easier for non-Norwegian. Many thanks. ;)

[@Oddi92]

I began learning English when I first started to go to school, when I was six years old. Don't know if that's normal though. I remember my first English textbook. There where drawings that we coloured, and simple words, such as "car", "bus" and "sky" was written on the different objects in the pictures.

[@amixofeverything]

Often, out commercial fishing in Alaska, you'll hear Norwegian on the boat radios (boats talking to other boats).

[@kosapeti]

This speech specific phrases (slang and such) are useful since you don't really find them in books and still ppl use them so often.

[@KaisaAtina]

@changewind13 Spain, Italy, France, Britain, USA and some in Germany. That's the most usual places, I think.

[@Ferrami]

I'm learning a lot with you!! Muchas Gracias! (spanish, mange takk haha)

[@shindayo]

Wow! I find this extremely useful! It's great that you speak slow first, kind of separate each word. I've notice when ppl speak Norwegian they omit word endings what actually makes the whole phrase / sentence more fluent, yet it bring a lot of confusion 'gee... how do I pronounce this or that word properly'. Great job! Takk!

[@panicoenduro]

Thank's for your help, I'm pleaning to learn norwegian in two years but I can't found a teacher around here... that's hard...

[@VisserZer0]

@Raquaable You can install a Norwegian keyboard driver and use it when you type in Norwegian. That's what I did. :)

[@epammy]

Karin, denne videoen er veldig nyttig for meg, spesielt de to andre måter å si at 'jeg vet ikke'. Tusen takk igjen for din generøse hjerte.

[@NorwegianTeacher]

@klownn de uttales likt, men med forskjellige toner! Se Tones video. Gjenta = ned - opp Jenta = Opp ned. ^^

[@charrliee96]

We have those shoes in Argentina too and we called "Alpargatas" : D so strange, its like something very typical here.

[@NorwegianTeacher]

@cmc201 If you watch my video "skj" "kj" and "rs" video, you will get it! :) RS always turns into a "sh" sound!

[@converter7]

@iwannadrinkacupoftea I stand corrected. That would explain a few things lol. I always assumed they were speaking a separate language in Austria. A Germanic language like Danish or Norwegian, but separate from German. Thank you for correcting me. Danki :)

[@NorwegianTeacher]

@Epicaq Usually I try to take sentences which are almost the same as the english once! But you wouldnt come very far knowing singal words, so senteces with the same meaning is more valueble to you guys.. i think?

[@yamirzender222]

I have seen your videos are 10 years ago. But your help is timeless, in the present im learning norsk, tusen takk .😉👍

[@0211570205]

hey you are so sweet while talking or teaching norwegian.well i want to learn Norsk and its been a great help.thanks for the videos.love xx

[@Goktugerol1]

Norweigan language, literature and country is very charming.. Also does anybody know, old english literature is very smiliar with scandinavian words !

[@heidiheidi0]

@tehasian1 i'm pretty sure that in some dialects u can say norsk the way you said it though. I've heard it before.

[@DrakeKensei]

This was very helpful indeed ^_^ and you speak very clearly and have a very beautiful and easy to understand voice thank you

[@Adi-ACL]

You remind me of the Pimsleur Norwegian lessons! some of the first few lessons teach you what you said(except some expresions :) )! Anyway, its nice you posted something new! too bad I don't have with who to practice. What is funny is that when you speak slow is easy to understand, but when you go norwegian mode, its like a turbo button been pressed:)! like a slow train that turns to a TGV:)! takk igjen Corina (the way we say your name in my country). Har en god dagg! lykke til a du ogsa.

[@theawesomesausage]

@FlsBestDTF gjenta - stress on the e, long a (since it's originally composed of two words) jenta - short vowels, tone on a

[@RamblingHermit]

Your videos are fantastic! Thank you so much for the lessons, and you speak English very well!

[@anneE794]

i am learning this languagie ;) I think you really can speak this languague ;) I like your voice ;)

[@nazim404]

Tussen Takk! Just started my norwegian lessons on my own! Hope these videos will be usefull as well!

[@NorwegianTeacher]

@FlsBestDTF its different in the tones.. down-up and up-down.

[@Viaamtrak]

She is just so cool as she teaches this, but I still cannot get my phonics and pronounciations correct to sound like her. I have enough trouble with English as a Canadien francophon, but this is really tough. I have to admire her ability to speak such clear English and also be a native Norge speaker.

[@Fabel101]

Takk Karin for videoen, jeg har lagrede den video fem år siden når jeg kom til Norge. .det var nyttig. jeg lært norsk og går på vgs. lykke til videre

[@mykelfoster376]

[@martkirakiraou9897]

Tusen takk for hjelpe!

[@Nowl8]

[@rrranjha]

[@FabX6]

I've just been following up on your vids. These are very cool.:-)

[@TheNorthRaven]

I love Norway, I am from Croatia..dont be crazy, we admire you ppl. :)

[@treadsuit]

just wanted to point out that "vacum" is spelled "vacuum" :-) it's one of those words you just have to memorize

[@ridinwithjake]

Is "g" always silent? It's not silent in Swedish, right?

[@darson67]

kan du nummerere din leksjoner ? det vil være lettere å lære.

[@kratoslevit]

do we need to be able to roll our R's or can some norwegians not anyway? if not....how should we get away with it? thanks x

[@jtmar]

Thanks Karin for this great video!

[@TheSatyam182]

[@NorwegianTeacher]

[@hoomanstavanger]

Thanks for this fabulous video, it is really helpful, waiting for next videos :) Takk for det

[@AnnKristinStensen]

So sweet :) You should come and visit Norway one time :D

[@walkinghollywood]

that Hæ? is so hilarious :D i feel like saying it all the time when someboy asks me something in norsk grrr As i don't understand norsk it's very hard to seperate words and understand or even worse - to say something in norsk! Feels like i need to put hot potato in my mouth so i could try to say finally something that sounds like norsk. I'm completely on ground zero right now but i think i will give it a try one more time. This was very great and useful video for me! Tusen takk! :)

[@wackokicker]

good job, thank you!

[@RiaRuss]

I love your videos, however i got a bit messed now... and i thought about that: which norwegian do you speak? I guess I learnt a different type haha :)

[@renvitros]

great video : P and congratulations on the toms shoes

[@bezzee12]

excellent as always

[@aleksinjo1]

WOW, Swedish and Norwegian and Danish and some of the nearby countries are very very much similar at their language, i can speak German, and i can say that you Sweden and Norwegian people can understand every word that you say to each other, but German has a little words that are similar to your's, i have sisters and they speak Swedish and i can't understande a word what they are saying... just when i really carefully listen... but i want to learn Swedish or Norwegian, i think Norwegian is cuter

[@voldlifilm]

How hard can it? Norwegian babies learn it?

[@nickitas87]

how to say , I love you?:)))

[@Alitarasasasas]

wonderfull

[@kisiu111122]

TAKK !

[@froneet]

you are really awesome :) thanks a lot for what you re doing in your free time fot us :)

[@ios254]

She is frickin adorable... I want to learn all of the Scandinavian languages. Thus far," jeg taler meget lit dansk." From what I am hearing of Norsk (I listen to the Pimsleur's Norsk CD from time to time), it sounds incredibly Dutch (?). A lot of "Sh" sounds. For instance, Undskyld, is pronounced with a heavy "SH" and sounds more like "unschell," whilst in Dansk it is pronounced "unskool" but spelled the same. I use to think Dansk sounded beautiful and Norsk was harsh but now methinks not.

[@LittleGreyPenguin]

@1fjonabozo Yes, and danish. :)

[@converter7]

@iwannadrinkacupoftea How about Austrian?

[@ridinwithjake]

Also - she's not rude - she seems great :-)

[@OnumLCT]

The auto-generated subtitles are amazing

[@OnumLCT]

[@dzyndzylyndzyn]

how to say in norwegian "you are so sweet"?

[@ronocko]

I dont know if I missed a lesson or something but when you pronounce at normal speed sentences like hva er dette you appear to drop the er sound, am I missing you pronounce it or is it dropped or am I retarded.?

[@HesseJamez]

Please mention you spoke "bokmal", not nynorsk. Bokmal is alike with danish.

[@ereniac]

great video!

[@helpsavethehumans]

vær så snill vs. er du snill? også: i cannot find "peiling" in the dictionary. jeg finner ikke "peiling" i ordboken.

[@FreshFilbor]
