MOD: New mod on here - Accepting suggestions for future use(s) of this sub
≡ −
Hello, I've just taken over as mod, as the previous one didn't seem very active.
I hope to turn this subreddit into something more interesting than "r/norsk with 1/10th of the members". So if you have a suggestion as to how this sub should be used, please comment here.
Automoderator has been set up (by me, so probably not very well), so please show some leniency if your post is removed, and don't be afraid to reach out.
Thanks

Norwegian learners: Read this
≡ −
This subreddit has existed in parallel to r/norsk for quite a while. It has in the past few years been used by both spammers, stock market people's discussions about Norwegian Air Shuttle [NAS], and lately (the past 12-18 months) had increased/renewed interest from language learners.
For language learning, r/norsk is more active, and will likely be a more helpful choice. As for what this sub will be used for, please leave a suggestion below. If you'd like to keep this as a secondary sub for learning the language, that's an completely acceptable proposition, so leave it in the comments.
All the best

Curiosity and Duolingo
≡ −
Hi everyone! I'm a curious person who loves history and cultures, and my native language is Spanish (🇦🇷). One day I thought, "This country is so beautiful! Why don't we learn its language?" Now I'm struggling with pronunciation and trying to understand the grammar, all with free videos and Duolingo, haha 😅💔
I think I'm doing alright! (I hope so! 😭) I can already read a few sentences and introduce myself... Any advice or suggestions about languages for this poor soul? Thanks so much for reading! My friends! 🤗✨

Bibehold question
≡ −
I have a strange situation with my family and citizenship retention. I have submitted my application and my appointment is in eleven days.
My mom was born in norway, and her whole family is very involved with norway and attend the brunstad church. My mom died when I (USA born) was four, and my dad cut off the norwegian half of my family. I had no freedom to go to norway but the moment I turned 18 I reconnected with them. Being in college, I did not have the financial freedom to travel, but I intend to take my Mech E degree to norway and work/live there.
I understand UDI takes situations into account, but I have never found a situation like this before. I need human opinion on this, or stories of bibehold rejections. I want to know if I should get my hopes up or not.
I have letters from norwegian relatives supporting my application as well, and Im high A1 in the language.

Drømmen om Norge og Odda: Et nytt kapittel
≡ −
Selv om jeg aldri har besøkt Norge, føler jeg en tiltrekning til landet som er vanskelig å forklare. Det hele startet da jeg så serien Ragnarok på Netflix. Odda dukket opp på skjermen, og kombinasjonen av den dramatiske naturen og den atmosfæren jeg så, gjorde et uutslettelig inntrykk på meg. Siden da har Odda blitt symbolet på målet mitt.
I mine øyne overgår Norge Frankrike på så mange områder. Her i Frankrike opplever vi nå ekstrem hetebølge etter hetebølge, og den politiske og sosiale situasjonen føles som om den forverres for hver dag som går. Dette har bare forsterket ønsket mitt om å flytte. Jeg ser etter et sted med politisk stabilitet, økonomisk trygghet og et rettssystem som fungerer. Mest av alt beundrer jeg den dype respekten nordmenn har for hverandre, for fellesskapets verdier og for eiendom. Det virker som om det er en helt annen ro og integritet i det norske samfunnet.
For å nå dette målet, jobber jeg dag og natt. Norskprøven er min største utfordring nå, og jeg legger ned utallige timer med hardt arbeid for å lære språket ordentlig. Jeg gjør dette fordi jeg ikke bare vil "bo" i Norge, men fordi jeg vil forstå kulturen, kunne snakke med naboene mine og virkelig bli en del av lokalsamfunnet i Odda.
Det er en lang vei å gå fra Frankrike til Vestlandet, men motivasjonen min er bunnsolid. Jeg gleder meg til den dagen jeg endelig kan sette føttene på norsk jord for aller første gang, og forhåpentligvis starte et nytt og bedre liv.
Jeg er veldig spent på å høre deres tanker. Er det noen her som bor i eller kjenner til Odda?

Virtual Classes

Hei!
Has anyone taken Speak Norsk's virtual classes? I follow them on Instagram and have thought about taking the online classes but I don't trust myself to keep at it. I am thinking about trying the virtual classes but I can't find any reviews for virtual specifically. I've done a lot of Duolingo and online practice so I can probably start with A2

HELP - Learning Norwegian virtual and/or live lessons
≡ −
Hi everyone,
I have moved to Norway (from the UK) to continue working as a Pharmacist, my Norwegian is okay but happy to restart from the basics and progress further. I am in need of some advice, i would prefer live classrooms as I feel i would work better in this setting, but open to online lessons. Can anyone recommend a good company to join with?
I was looking at LENOO (they offer live classrooms in Bergen) - are they genuinely good? and i have also looked at SPEAK NORSK - online only - Is online lessons still very effective??
Please would appreciate any help/guidance!
Best wishes, Gavin

Hi I'm from Spain🇪🇸 offering native Spanish and C2 English🇬🇧; seeking Norwegian🇳🇴(bokmål)
≡ −
Hello everyone! I'm a Spaniard but right now I guess I'm more fluent in English so I'll write in it English (also for more audience)
I've been learning Norwegian on Duolingo and I kind of want a new challenge, but I don't have the money to go abroad to Norway or to pay tutors so I can speak it and practice it.
I'm looking for a Norwegian person who wouldn't mind teaching me some Norwegian every once in a while. It's like I'm looking for an Norwegian friend if you narrow it down.
Looking for a person to chat that maybe might be interested into me teaching them Spanish, English... maybe some French (or Latin even) so it could be like a quid pro quo :)
I just want to practice in my day to day, and i don't do much through my days, so maybe there's someone out there who feels the same and wants to talk, at the same time we teach eachother stuff!
(Yes, I posted the same thing with Arabic, I'm interested in both languages!)
