NorgeNoreg(Nynorsk) "similar"
Window = VinduVindauge(Nynorsk) "somewhat similar but differs quite a bit"
How = HvordanKorleis(Nynorsk) "differs a lot"
"Samisk" even though some of my fellow countrymen speak it, I have no understanding of it, I actually don't know a single word.
And Norwegian is full of different dialects that sounds so different that you can hardly tell that they are the same language.
Example:
My dialect "" (and there are many different dialects within "t", I speak something in between "" and "fosnsk")
sounds something like "Jeg er ikke helt riktig naglet i hodet"
And in "nynorsk" it`s "Eg er ikkje heilt rektig nagla i haudet"(not quite sure it`s 100% correct)
I don`t know how it`s in other countries, but Norwegian really confuses my knowledge of language!
Any thought`s
@molok69,
Hi, molok69.
Your language situation appears to be all messed up; sorry for you
.
We don't really have that in America. But I come from Boston and we do speak differently from the rest of the country.
In Boston we say 'Paahk the kah'. Instead of 'park the car' etc.
Here is a link that I found on the web is for having a conversation like in Norway

@Pythagorean,
Did you ever try to make love to some one who was talking all the time, and finally you have to say: Baby. Will you please hang up! I'd like to have an orgasim now.

I think we here in southern Norway rather would say:
Maybe I'm a bit finicky? :bigsmile:

@molok69,
Several other European nations have just as much trouble;some parts speak German, others either Italian or French. And not only do you have to deal with two very distinct dialects, you have to learn English as well!
@Henrik phil,
I speak three languages: French, Italian, and Thousand Islands.... That is a Joke;... Norseman.

People in America are divided by language, and are perhaps divided on that line everywhere... When you do not have a common culture, and no common mother, as all true nations... When any person says a word like freedom, there is no reason to believe he holds the same difinition as yourself... That line from Voltair: If you would discourse with me, define your terms -was never more true any place than this... And if you have to spend all of your time talking about talking, then that is the second intention...
