    norsk – Facts about the Norwegian language

    The official language of Norway, Norwegian is spoken by approximately 4.6 million people. Most Norwegian speakers are located in Norway although speakers of Norwegian can also be found in the neighbouring countries of Denmark and Sweden. 

    Norwegian is part of the North Germanic branch of the Indo-European family of languages and is most closely related to Swedish and Danish which for many are mutually intelligible languages.  Other close relations to Norwegian include Faroese and Icelandic.  Norwegian dialects are generally categorised into five groups:  North Norwegian , Trøndelag Norwegian , Midland Norwegian , West Norwegian and East Norwegian . They are generally mutually intelligible, but can differ significantly in terms of accent, grammar and syntax to the extent that native Norwegian speakers unfamiliar with a certain dialect may struggle to understand it.

     

    Today, modern Norwegian consists of two written forms: Nynorsk and Bokmål , both of which share equal status although the large majority of Norwegians will use the Bokmål form in their daily written communication.  The Norwegian language uses the Latin alphabet, comprising 29 letters in total. The three additional letters are: æ ø å.
