Dagbjortlinn, I have known about SKAM BECAUSE I started to learn Norwegian. I'm just a language fan and I can relax with this language after Asian languages.
I work for NATO and I'm in Stavanger...the Norge army folks have been trying to teach me at work how to speak Norwegian but you hit the nail on the head...Love how easy you make this! Helps that you are prettier than them too. lol
Norwegian language it is not easy especially for latin people, but the teacher it is very clever (in this video). Thank you very much lady for your effort.
I agree, I speak portuguese (i'm from Brazil) and the norsk language has a completely new set of words, but its syntax, its structure seems to be very easy to understand, and verbs are not conjugated: once you learn the verb you can start using it. That's very nice :D
Ricardo Pieper In the beginning it is easy. Wait till you have to learn how to write and pronounce hundreds of verbs... tell me after that how is going on. However I end with the conclusion that it is easier than German.
ramona rorvik I'll do it if I remember, but I think this is not easy in any language (some may be easier than others, of course). But yes, i'm in the very beginning, there is a long way to go. I also plan to learn Russian (and german), and I know a German and English teacher who was born in ukraine, he also knows Russian and he said that it is even harder to learn than German... so the difficulties shall not stop one from learning a language.
A perfect word for training Ø is Burn! In the english Ø I notice the tongue goes backwards approaching the R in burn, but in norw. you just relax it. The R sound is something we notice right away with americans speaking norw, the tongue must be in normal position and dirring up and down :]
awesome....first I gotta say, I love you. Secondly, I definitely like the Hebrew comment. And lastly, because I am an American, born and raised, yet Norwegian descent, I am really wanting to learn my native ancestor language. My only request is if you can slow it down a bit and not fly through it like sonic. In closing, Michelle, you did a great job and are doing a great thing. I am sure our ancestors would be proud of what you are doing.
There are free online learning out there for Norwegian and then there is Babbel but that costs about $8 a month or there about but it is an amazing language resource. My suggestion is to use the free Norwegian learning out there one of them is run by the university of NTNU www.ntnu.no/ If you combine the likes of the free learning with videos like this you will fly through it. Norwegian has similarities to English to the point that you may actually see what is being state without actually knowing it fully.
I am Dutch. And i can understand what she is saying without reading the subs. Dutch and Norska 60% the same. Tot much respect for you Michelle helping people to understand and talk the Norwegian Language . Much Love
Thank you so much for making these lessons! I watched them for the first time when i started Norwegian (like 9 months ago) and they really helped soo much with pronunciation and introducing me to the language and grammar and everything. Du er kjempefint! Tusen takk!
Hello Michelle, thank you for the lessons and being here :) I´m from Germany and its very cool to learn my two favorite languages at the same time by looking your videos :) Thanks.
I heard the Norwegian language for the first time a few months ago and absolutely fell in love with it. I have watched many videos, and even bought a learning CD. However, I have to say that your videos make it easier to learn the language than anything else I have come across. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much for these! I go to a camp where it's a Norwegian heritage camp and after two days we have to snukker Norsk. I can't wait until these year because it's my second time going and it's absolutely great! This was such a great way to review and learn some of the words! Tusen takk!
Thanks a lot for doing these videos😘i have just started to learn Norwegian and it's so hard to learn it without any native speakers or people who can help you, but I'm so happy that I have found your channel on UA-cam and now its much easier for me to learn Norwegian😘😘
Best Norwegian tutorial I've found. Well done! Fantastic structure and realistic content. Most I've seen have been random sentences. Thank you so much!
She's really cool and funny too. It's amazing how she can switch back and forth between English and Norwegian so smoothly. I'm trying to learn because anybody who's anybody speaks Norwegian;
Thank you for this, am planning a trip to Norway from Florida and wanted to touch up on my Norwegian language and social life. appreciate you providing this for free
I decided to learn Norwegian, I try 50 languages, google translate, random webpages when I needed to learn a verb. But the issue with Norwegian is the accent. In other words, your videos are very very helpful to teach me how to pronounce, and you make things look easy when they are not. Keep the Good Job. Please don't stop the Norwegian Language videos.
The reason for the H preceding words like "hva" probably derives from its mother tongue of Old West Norse (west for Iceland and Norway, East for Swedish and Danish) where the word is "hvað." It would be pronounced "hwath" (th like in there) in Old Norse/Old Icelandic and more like "kvath" in later Icelandic (closest linguistically to Old Norse).
The inserted H in question words like where, when, who, what, which, why, and even others like whether, etc... might have the same explanation, I guess.
Considering that English and Old Norse are both from the Proto-Germanic languages, that would make sense. Keep in mind that Proto-Norse speakers and Proto-English speakers would have used similar writing systems called the Futhark (after the first 6 letters of the alphabet system). Old English words would have been equivalent to Old Norse, generally. Old English hwæt is pretty similar to Old Norse hvat and both go back to Proto-Germanic hwat.
Hei! When you say Norsk doesn't have conjugation, do you mean words like "it', "the", "are", etc doesn't change in different sentences? Or do you mean feminine and masculine words? Takk! Also, do you think this language will be difficult to learn if I've managed to learn the Russian alphabet and quiet a few phrases that I can easily say and write?
Thanks alot dear!. you always do a nice job on ur Vids about Norway. Its your Vidz that sparked my first interest to Visit Norway and then when I had the opportunity to Visit it this year I was watching your Vidz for tips and info and it really helped me. Thanks again. I love the place a lot and I would love to move there and work there. Any tips on that? I was in Bergen though. Sentrum area. I visited a restaurant called Bryggeloftet & Stuene twice and had some cool dinner. One time Lammeskank and another Reinsdyrfilet. I love Norway!!!
God kvelt Michelle ! i just started norwegian 2 days ago and i am so happy to watch your videos ! it helps me a lot and i think it's a good way to begin ! Tussen Takk !
This girl is gonna receive a lot of notifications bc of skam fans, like guys do we really have to take her back to 2010 lol like tarjei was only maybe like 11 lmao
I'm going to Oslo in October next year. I just bought my plane ticket. Just watched the first lesson for my third time and I am looking forward to watching the others. Thank you very much for taking the time to do this. It is much appreciated.
Michelle I love to learn Norwegien! I'm kind of understanding Norwegien Because I'm on the right side of Norway. Sweden I live in Sweden and they are pretty simular but can you speak Swedish or do you understand Swedish?
Also I am gonna watch all your videos. On the first one... I wanted to take a photo of the phrases ( it would be awesome to have the English translation above or below the Norwegian.... quick reference. I like how you describe things, fun!
I AM SO GLAD THAT THERE AREN’T VERB CONJUGATIONS! I’ve been learning German for a while and it’s SO complicated! EX: I write - Ich schriebe You write - Du schriebst He/She/They write - Er/Sie/Es schreibt We write - Wir schrieben Y’all/You guys write - Ihr schriebt You (formal)/they write - Sie/sie Schrieben And that’s only regular verbs in nominative case... it gets A LOT worse!
Awesome- I'm in Norway right now. I've picked up a lot of words and phrases. I am gonna come here when I get back and try to get a grasp on beginning the journey of learning Norwegian ... (you had me at jewy) -lol cheers
+bad hair .day norwegian language come from danish, which have so much in common with german language. add a bit of english easyness and some french pronounciation of letters (not phonems) and you get norwegian (bokmål)
Awesome and perfect English and Norwegian dialect and pronunciation you have in both languages, I cannot tell if you are from the US or Scandanavia!! 😊 excellent vid. Tak se myket
I' want to learn Norwegian because I accidentally heard someone talking it , and I felt like having already been able to talk this languages !! I'm spanish but I think that I used to be a viking in an anterior life ! so thank you for your videos !

You had me at "no conjugating verbs" !!!
Norwegian language it is not easy especially for latin people, but the teacher it is very clever (in this video). Thank you very much lady for your effort.
I agree, I speak portuguese (i'm from Brazil) and the norsk language has a completely new set of words, but its syntax, its structure seems to be very easy to understand, and verbs are not conjugated: once you learn the verb you can start using it. That's very nice :D
Ricardo Pieper In the beginning it is easy. Wait till you have to learn how to write and pronounce hundreds of verbs... tell me after that how is going on. However I end with the conclusion that it is easier than German.

Ricardo Pieper Take your time. About 3 years for Russian to be fluent..... Cross fingers for you.

Wow it feels like everybody is just learning Norwegian for skam.....
Ø like the "i" in Bird, or the "u" in Burn
my grandparents were Norwegians. it is an incredibly easy language.
A perfect word for training Ø is Burn! In the english Ø I notice the tongue goes backwards approaching the R in burn, but in norw. you just relax it.
The R sound is something we notice right away with americans speaking norw, the tongue must be in normal position and dirring up and down :]
That's true, and also bird and hurt can work
it's this phoneme 3:

love the casual swearing and jewish mother accent... seriously though, i still come back to this lesson from time to time to work my basics.
Best Norwegian tutorial I've found. Well done! Fantastic structure and realistic content. Most I've seen have been random sentences.
Thank you so much!
Great vibes. Loved your first video.
She's really cool and funny too. It's amazing how she can switch back and forth between English and Norwegian so smoothly.
I'm trying to learn because anybody who's anybody speaks Norwegian;
Thanks for the lesson. This seems fairly simple so far. Almost sounds a bit like German but less confusing.
thanks for the video. Difficult language though. I tried and just suffered from cramps on my tongue.
Thank you for this, am planning a trip to Norway from Florida and wanted to touch up on my Norwegian language and social life. appreciate you providing this for free

Until relatively recently the Swedish question word 'vad' ('what') was spelled like 'hvad'

I AM SO GLAD THAT THERE AREN’T VERB CONJUGATIONS! I’ve been learning German for a while and it’s SO complicated! EX:
I write - Ich schriebe
You write - Du schriebst
He/She/They write - Er/Sie/Es schreibt
We write - Wir schrieben
Y’all/You guys write - Ihr schriebt
You (formal)/they write - Sie/sie Schrieben
And that’s only regular verbs in nominative case... it gets A LOT worse!
Awesome- I'm in Norway right now. I've picked up a lot of words and phrases. I am gonna come here when I get back and try to get a grasp on beginning the journey of learning Norwegian ... (you had me at jewy) -lol cheers
**watches one episode of skam**

Pretty much yeah.

+bad hair .day norwegian language come from danish, which have so much in common with german language. add a bit of english easyness and some french pronounciation of letters (not phonems) and you get norwegian (bokmål)
Ø ø
"Hvordan gar det" sounds indian, kinda hate that

IRON MAIDEN You just said "My name is you" in Norwegian xD
Thea Flatnes lol still sounds fucking awesome xD
