There are several distinct dialects. Bokmal is formalized, standardized more Danish recent langnuage implemented for reading and writing. Nynorsk is older. Most who speak Nynorsk are rural people uninfluenced by city standardization. It is judged a bit like a thick southern accent would be in the USA, so no not elite-autist but more quaint and unsophisticated.

norway is a shithole.
dont come here, dont ask about here.
fuck off.

Pretty much every major town and/or county has its own distinct dialect. It's an extremely varied language with massive regional distinctions. People can place you within a couple dozen square miles simply by hearing you speak a sentence or two.

>two dialects

two dialects... baka

There are hundreds.
WAY TO FUCKING MUCH FUCKING DIALECTS

In Norway you can INSTANTLY hear which part of the country someone is from... and I mean INSTANTLY

...

who sounds the most autistic?

Americans

No one speaks nynorsk. People speak their dialects. Nynorsk is a standardized written language based on a collection of samplings from how people spoke throughout Norway. Our state sanctioned commie tv station is probably the only place where you will hear news anchors speak in a way based on the written nynorsk. Some dialects naturally sound a lot like how nynorsk is written and share similar words and some dialects are farther removed.

>why are there two dialects of norwegian?
to create a norwegian closer to old norwegian rather than the mess we got now. we got a ton of dialects, but two written "languages", which is bokmål and nynorsk
>how many people actually speak nynorsk?
about 15% or something. heard somewhere that the amount of people speaking it is rising. also, everyone in school are forced to learn it
>I know bokmal is standard but for some reason this other dialect exists. is it only for autists?
no, some grow up with it and some don't. it depends where you live, western norway got way more nynorsk speakers

There are a bunch of dialects. Nynorsk and bokmål are written languages, not something you actually speak.

Nynorsk is mainly based on western dialects, so people who use nynorsk are mainly from western Norway.

For you Nords - which dialects do you think are cute when chicks speak them? I think chicks with a Stavanger accent sound pretty good. And which sounds worst on a chick?

And conversely, which dude accents sound manliest/ best? And which sound the most cucked/cringe?

Northern norway has good dialects imo. Girls from Finnmark and about. Guys from area sound good also. Halling is the best dialect there is hands down but it's pretty neutral in regards to gender. I think of hobbits when hearing them etc.

Stavanger is ok. Bergen is not so nice sounding. South east close to sweden is most cucked they sound like limp dicked retarded farmers.

How is a tromso dialect?

cucked is oslo dialect
best is hallingdal dialect
i love valdres dialect too for some reason

question for americans here

why do you not speak english?

Chicks with northern accents generally sound horrible. Trondersk can be fine, but any further north than this is horrible - think of Bodo and upwards. When you start to get into Finnmark things really start to get scary.

Manliest dialects in my opinion stem from Sogn og Fjordane.

Thanks for the insight!

Best for women:
Eastern Norwegian (Oslo dialect)
North Norwegian dialects
Stavanger (or southern Norwegian tip) dialects

Manliest:
Western Norwegian dialects (without Bergen)
No contest here really. It's a much deeper pitch than eastern high pitch dialects.
Also, western Norwegians sounds MUCH better when they speak english than eastern Norwegians.

>used to speak old norse

>Norwegian nationalism in the 1800s
>want our own language, two camps
>1: "Norwegianize" the Danish writing, this became riksmål then bokmål
>2: create a new language based on the rural dialects that are close to Old Norse, this became landsmål then nynorsk

There are several dialects in Norgay. The western Norgayans seem to emphasize in nynorgay. Its madass expensive here. The living is boring. The women are half-ass disgusting uggos. My advice is. Dont come here. Ever, Dont let Emilie Nereng fool you. Girls like her are super rare.

>Nynorsk only exists for autists?
You are 100% correct.

However, Nynorsk is just some made up bullshit from the 19th century, because some autistic old fart had nothing better to do than modify the language into his liking, and it actually caught on with some massive autists.

Ivar Aasen, the old fart, managed to get some followers mainly consisting of communist autists, and they somehow managed to get Nynorsk into our curriculum. Unless you're a nigger, or not 100% Norwegian you don't have to learn it.

Please nuke us.

emilie nereng made it sound pretty great. what has she lied about?

Norwegian, Danish and Swedish are all the same language apparently. Should save some time.

that's interesting
how do people in the cold regions make a living?

Very interesting - especially regarding pitch, and dialect influence when speaking English

Nyborsk is a troll language that nobody uses except when legally required and by autists who think it makes them special. It is universally hated.

why did you post that picture?
it's a happy looking family

the fuck is your problem? is it that the Irish have never achieved anything note worthy in history?
are you short? below 180cm? is your dick non-functional?
I hope posting that picture improved your self-image
you sure showed them!!!

Autism.

Stavanger dialect is cute on girls, but it's a bit silly on guys. I can't take Stavanger peoples anger seriously, it sounds like they are vomiting flowers.

NAV only got a bad reputation after niggers started leeching off our welfare...

inb4 NAVer. Jeg jobber takk.

Skarnes/Harstad dialect for men.
Stavanger for women.

Looks like i hit a nerve.
Can you get some more shwarma meat from the back, Youssuf?

Is Bergen a beautiful city?

Used to have a sexslave from Stavanger, 2nd best pussy I ever had.

Men using stavanger dialects sound cool when they go full retard and sound like Per Inge Torkildsen.

Youssuf? Is he the one that stole your boyfriend?

Well, im an North American immigrant working in the failing Norgayan oil sector. I will prob move back. Its really getting shit-tier here. Have fun soon to be nor-poor-lack

You dont know shit about norwegian language history.
Literally nothing you wrote was correct.
Its not made up bullshit, not made by autistic old fart, didnt modify any language due to THERE NOT BEING A WRITTEN NORWEGIAN LANGUAGE AT THIS TIME (nynorsk is older than bokmål), and why in the fuck are you talking about commies. Honestly sound like something that someone that has never stepped out of their oslo region bubble would write.
"Unless youre a nigger or not 100% norwegian" those are the groups that are least likely to learn it what the fuck are you on about.
Those that learn Nynorsk are way more likely to be 100% norwegian than those that learn bokmål just due to all our immigrants swamping big cities where bokmål is the mainstay.

Yes.
But you still have to deal with constant bad weather, not to mention the staggering amount of niggers and gypsies.

Good job, now we have more clay to ourselves.

I lived on the Laksevåg side of Bergen while studying there, I litterally saw the same dog turd lie on the street for a whole year, when summer came the shit had turned white. Also everyone was fucking Baltiscum.

Neither Bokmål or nynorsk is very Norwegian. The closest thing to true Norwegian language is Icelandic. Todays Norwegian is more Danish/German, just like our King.

Ivar DID modify dialects to attempt to fit it into one dialect/written language.

>Not being a written Norwegian language at this time
>19th century
Please kill yourself immediately. You are utterly retarded, and I am ashamed to share my citizenship with you.

We can all agree the trondelag dialect is the coziest?

>not to mention the staggering amount of niggers and gypsies.
I really don't understand what happened. It's like someone suddenly filled up the city with niggers and shitskins. It went from 98% white to Mogadishu almost overnight. I remember going out one day and just noticing how everyone was a fucking nigger. As a kid and teenager, I never saw a hijab.

True Norwegian is proto-germanic you fucking SV voting Raudt member.

Is pic related a wasted vote guys? Better to vote for based Sylvi? What are you going to vote?

Why lie about something so stupid? The rain would have washed it away.

You will be if you don't turn that tub around faster motherfucker
And none if you will tell me where Einar lives goddamit
You can't keep him to yourselves forever

pls respond

Same thing happened in Sunnhordaland, it gets dark around 16 as Alladin and Mbutu comes out to spend his nav-money.

Totally happened friend, it was bizzare.

Voting alliansen. At least then we know who to blame when shit fails. You should do the same, and tell your friends to do the same. There is nothing more sad than a person not voting after principle. Not voting for someone because you think they have no chance is the single most cucked thing you can do in the election this year.

True Norwegian is Old Norse, which Icelandic is the most similar to. Icelandic people are Norwegian settlers.

>SV
The fuck did you call me you KrF voting cuckold fetishist?
Please an hero now.

We stop being pussies about cold weather, and/or dress accordingly.

protip: wool, and layers.

>how do people in the cold regions make a living
The socialist government pays them to construct snowmen...

I meant what kind of work do they do?
Like, plant trees, work in sawmills whatever

What? I thought the shitskins were only in the bigger cities.

>u wot m8? i'll bash ye fookin' head in

haha try harder limey

Damn I wanted to go to Bergen on vacation, is there any other pretty city thats not filled with shitskins

He's right you guys have no understanding of our language history. Danes and swedes also spoke norse, but, like norwegian, their languages changed over time. Of course, danish due to it's location was more prone to influences. And then, norwegian writing danish had a huge influence here. But here is a thought conversation between two norwegians in the mid 1400s:
youtube.com/watch?v=vh4GZeJ8F5s
This is not norse.

Pretty good sumary.
But I don't get the written system only part. Everyone obviously speaks the way they write and viceversa.

>He preferes a language known as the Danish tongue among its speakers
You heard my you inbreed MDG Cuckquean.

I like these types of threads. Getting a Sup Forums perspective on Norway makes for good laughs.

Never thought of Ivar as anything but a guy wasting his time trying to make sense of a language spoken by trolls and hobgoblins that if you just take a 5-10 minute drive to the next "kontri" music festival. Some midgard denizen named Emil there will be speaking in completely different tolkiens.

>u wot m8? i'll bash ye fookin' head in
>haha try harder limey
what's that, juan?

Fuck no, we get them out here in gook too, especially in the bible belt.

This, stay away

You shouldn't travel to Norway to see a particular city. See the landscape, the fjords, mountains, the view. It's breathtaking, really.


visitnorway.com/?lang=usa

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Will try to convince the easy ones.

k fag

Well yea but I have to stay somewhere nice too

Don't listen to it is terrible here and you will get robbed by customs for bringing anything more than the clothes you wear, and then you will get beheaded by Muslims/shot by a breivik fan when you leave the airport in the green zones. Please stay away, for your own sake.

>Everyone obviously speaks the way they write and viceversa.
That is true, it is why french is such an efficient language where there is no way to mistake how words are pronounced.

Norge pls, I'm gonna come over and have a beer with you

Rent a tent.

I mean I understand your dislike of those terms but when none of those things are close to what I am it just feels funny.

Language evolve, how we spoke 1000 years ago isnt how we speak today. Nynorsk was made by combining different spoken dialects with old norse, which is exactly what you seem to have endorse by you saying that icelandic is closest to true norwegian.

If you dont know that there was no standardized norwegian language in the beginning of the 1800s im not sure what to tell you. We had written language earlier, like mellomnorsk, however those fell out of use during our time in union with Denmark. Attempts to revitalize norwegian language didnt go far beyond using norwegians words with mostly danish except in far off regions until we reached the 19th century in which we got nynorsk and bokmål, with nynorsk being the first of the two.

Good job calling me retarded friend without actually showing why.

It's not that bad, particularly compared to American cities. I mean, there aren't even enough of them to have formed distinct communities or ghettos, like in Oslo.
Anyway, Bergen is still 84% Norwegian, and about 93% white. It does feel like there are more shitskins, though, but that's mostly because they're young, unemployed and all live in the city, which makes them very visible.

He just doesn't want you here, because then you'll fall in love with our great country and marry a white, norwegian girl.

Too late lads, I'm coming to burger your women(after which I will go to Funlan and cuddle their qt's)

So there's nowhere left to run...

Svaldbard, you "only" have to deal with Brazilians and Russians there.

wew tell that to the uk no-go zones
and look at what happened in manchester

Well thats good, I thought it was like London-tier

Sounds like a plan desu

You could always come here and hide in the Dakotas

Einar is fucking based.

Don't worry we still have mcdonalds and burger kings in all the important cities.

...

Thais are everywhere though.

I wish all the Norwegians in the midwest would come back home. It would effectively double our numbers, and be the ideal solution to our coming demographic problem.

The biggest non-norwegian group in Longyearbyen is thais. Of course there are russians around, although mostly in Barentsburg. Don't know why you think there's a lot of brazilians there.

Oh crap, Limey's raging!
Better break out the Tetley!

Seriously, what are you trying to accomplish, United Cuckdom?
Trying to ignore the fact ISIS is raping your country?
Trying to "keep calm and carry on"?

Has anyone fucked a Sami girl?
