Very interesting indeed. I can see it is a formidable language to learn. On the other hand, the similarities of many words to English (and particularly older Scots words) is enticing.

I love the online useful phrases - how about this one?

Sola har ikke vist seg siden midt i november.

"The sun has not appeared since the middle of November."

literally the sun has not shown self since mid november!

How much is a beer in Norway/Sweden these days?

I suppose Ol (how do you get the nordic letters BTW?) has the same origin as our word 'ale'.

What's the exchange rate with the Norwegian Kroner?

I heard a story recently about someone over in Norway from the UK on a business trip. Lacking local currency he visited a cash machine. By mistake he took out the equivalent of £2000 because he hadn't checked the exchange rate first! :eek:): :Crazy_071

Is it around 10 NOK to the Pound?

Best wishes
