Learn Norwegian
This is a special page to help you learn the basics of Norwegian. The lessons have been especially designed by a real student of the language – L-Jay! – so they are from a real life Norwegian experience and are inspired by the Norwegian Language Adult Education here in Norway. The learning is from an English speakers point of view and will later include practise exercises and podcast entries.
