*When your friends tell you to go to Hell, but you know Hell is a nice village in Norway...*
*Happy Norwegian noises*
Stjørdal KOMMUNE!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
*for some reason get insulted in Icelandic*
Jeg har vært der
Norwegians: Norge
English people: NORJ
NorGeh
Then how do u say it
@@chocolatesweets3336 Nor-Ge. The Ge is supposed to be pronounced like Ga in game
@@flaket2869 Like in Danish.
Du mener «Normen»
just FYI: hell actually means luck in norwegian
zzappyzz both hell and lykke means luck
zzappyzz helvete means hell (and is also used as fuck) and that is why my band is called helvete
just FYI: there is a place in norway called hell
@@ihg7645 Yea - but that place is perhaps named after "hell" as in the Germanic "hell" meaning "bright" or "clear".
Hell to you👍
Not “nyorsk”, but “nynorsk”. Like “new Norwegian”.
genralporsjon vem fan skulle säga nyorsk seriöst?
Gwilym Garrigan Nej
It's also garbage
ᴍᴀʀɪᴜs s jag vet, jag kommentera på hur han uttalade det fel
nice jeg også
The disney movie Frozen is also inspired by Norway. The "kingdom" Elsa and Anna lives in is called Arendal and its a real town south in Norway
i have been there
Hva det viste jeg ikke
But it’s based on the stories by Hans Christian Andersen, a Danish author.
The animation team even took a trip to Norway to get realistic inspiration
Yes, I was waiting for him to say that! Frozen is set in a Scandinavian kingdom called Arendelle. Yes, it’s based on Arendal, a city in Southern Norway.
Ive never felt so insulted by people trying to speak my language
Well to be fare he didn't really try as much as just ride it in English and call it a day
NorwegianIdiot Those pronunciations hurt my very soul.
NorwegianIdiot i hope You remember that norwegian is one of The hardest languages to learn
@@skuppys68thchild87 That is just not true. For an English (or germanic/indo-european) speaking person, Norwegian is one of, if not *the* easiest language you can learn.
Buuu
Norwegians are simple creatures. We see Norway, we click.

You don't understand why we celebrate 1814 then? You missed a very important bit there.
I have watched the first 3,5 minutes and starts to wonder if this is 101 facts about Oslo rather than 101 facts about Norway.
It basically was, around 80% of the facts were about Oslo, and the rest was just boring well known facts. Even a couple were wrong.
😜😜😜
Turistang Mangyan what?
That's very true. Like what about Bergen, Stavanger, Trondheim, and those citys up in very North of Norway where Kids around school ages can slay fishes tongues?
Its just about Oslo
I am American and have always had such an admiration for this beautiful country and culture. My dream is to live there! I pray this will happen one day🙏 God Bless Norway
Do not go to norway i am right go to burger King and DO NOT GO TO NORWAY!!!!!!!....

102, allmost all non Norwegian youtube channels butcher the Norwegian language
And this channel didn't?
He sure did but her it, at least the first sentence he said was very butchered. Went something like “good day to you to you” and didn’t sound right at all
103, every Norwegian youtuber is super cringe
You misunderstood a bit the celebration of the national day on 17th of May. We are not celebrating some kind of brief independence. We are celebrating that Norway got a constitution and autonomy. The Norwegian union with Sweden was a BIG STEP forward for Norwegian freedom. Denmark almost completely ruled Norway. In contrast Norway was in a union with Sweden. That means Norway had its own parliament, constitution, elections, prime minister, representatives, armed forces etc.
In fact the full independence in 1905 was really a culmination of an ongoing conflict with Sweden ever since the union began where the conditions on the union was never fully established causing Norway to continuously grab more power for itself while Sweden tried to protest. Norway was quite in open defiance against Sweden by actively building up a more modern military and building up an array of fortresses on the border with Sweden despite us officially being together.
Norway didn't get this autonomy because the Swedes where just being nice. It was because they got a fair amount of casualties in the war with Norway. Norway's strategy was to deal a strong enough blow against Sweden that they would sit down and negotiate favorable terms for our surrender. Norway knew it could not win against Sweden long term. They just had to convince Swedes that if they did not agree to compromise with Norway, the military conflict would get drawing out, bloody and expensive.
In 1905 war was very much on the table again. Swedish conservatives wanted to attack Norway. Social democrats wanted to let Norway decide its own faith. The king of Sweden while being hurt over the Norway's desire to leave the union decided that a war with Norway was not desirable. He viewed Norwegians and Swedes as brother people's and did not want bitterness between them. So the wise king of Sweden decided it was better to let Norway go. Norwegian military while smaller was from my understanding more modern at the time. Which would have meant no easy victory for Sweden.

@Mystic yes
About fact 54: The world's largest portion of Fårikål. This was an advertising stunt for the dish washing soap Yes ( One bottle of Yes was used to hand wash all the plates used to serve free Fårikål). It was created by the advertising agency Bates in Oslo (shut down after 61 years in 2015). I worked on that project. My responsibility was over seeing all the digital aspect of that event. Live streaming, banner ads and online competition. The project was a blast and very nice to get to know people who work at world Guinness records. Nice video!
I could not understand that norwegian sentence you said in the beginning even though i am norwegian
You're not alone mate
Du er ikke alene
Something like “good day to you to you”? I don’t understand the last part of it at all
I think he said "god dag til deg" and then added "to you" because he doesn't know what he's doing lmao
He said; God dag ....mumble..
Hell in Norwegian is actually luck. Like we say “du har hell på din side” it actually means “you have luck on your side”.
Sant 🇧🇻
Wtf hvorfor er det sant😂

Ble litt nysgjerrig hva denne videoen ville spesifikt nevne om Norge, finner det litt artig egentlig om hva folk i andre land tenker om oss. Det jeg har kommet mest borti er "You guys have winter 24-7 year round" type sak. Er bare litt artig å se.

Trust me. No norwegian calls Oslo ‘’the tiger city’’. We call it Oslo
det er gamelt kallenavn tiger byen/tigerstaden :) men oftest bare oslo :)
Hvis du referer til Oslo som tigerstaden så eier du ikke respekt for hverken deg selv eller norsk kultur
Yeah I live in Norway we don’t call Oslo the tiger city
and New York is a state in America also Washington state .
og ingen bergensere kaller oslo noe annet en Norge. Vi er ikke Norge vi er BERGEN. LOL
Norge is not Norge (one syllable), but nor*ge (2 syllables).
Hø eg e forvirret
Right. Norge rhymes with Helga, not George.
In Nynorsk it’s Noreg
@@Aslaugarsson Still 2 syllables. Nor-eg. Nor-ge. Still not "NoRGE" as in "GeoRGE"
@@mariagrndahl-schwarz7730 Yes, i know. The pronouncement was wrong.
I'm Norwegian and live in Kautokeino. I met Sir Niels a couple of years ago. It's not true what they say, "you should never meet your heroes". He was so nice and polite. He took his time answering my questions about our foreign politics, climate change and the elderly wave we are facing in a decade or two. Such a polite penguin!
Should've made number 17 about the independence day.

Når alle som ser på videoen er norske, men kommenterer fortsatt på engelsk

Not Nobel Prizes, just the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in Oslo; all the others are awarded by Swedish committees - in Stockholm
Fact about the river is that in West part of the river called it akerselven as they emulated the language from the danish, which shows that They are educated. The East side of the river calls it Akerselva as They were the working class who rarely were educated so They used dialects and accent used by their family
Edvard Munch is pronounced like «Munk»
well, in Norway hell doesn't mean the same, and yes I've been to Hell and back.
PS: please look up the pronunciation cause you didn't even try
how the hell do you pronunce ?
@ᴍᴀʀɪᴜs s I rather use "Lykke" as "Happiness", and "Hell" as "Luck" because it's closely tied to "Heldig", while "Lykke" is too close to "Lykkelig" for me to shake the association.

Some interesting facts:
Norway held out longer than France in WWII. Nazi-Germany did also suffer their first defeat in the battle of Narvik. And Jøkulkyrkja in Queen Mauds land is actually Norways tallest mountain (3150 meters)
Jøkulkyrkja is both Norwegian and not. The south pole can politically not be rules by any nation even though it's split up between some nations at the moment. All depending on the definition is it a cool fun fact.

Fellow norwegian here. Heisann folkens 🇳🇴

101 Facts about Norway and not a single one mentioning Black Metal?
Maxime Prometheas good
I watched this video because i wanted to see some good facts about black metal
Not our alphabet eather
Damn shame that
6:28 why is there a clip from stockholm, sweden
Another fact, the first Secretary-General of the UN Trygve Lie was Norwegian.
That's a Lie!
based on the norwegian war heroes: my great grandmother's brother escorted many jews from norway to sweden, but was snitched on by one of his old classmates and died in a concentration camp.
If you are going to make a point of how norwegians pronounce their countrys name, why wouldnt you spend two minutes googling the true pronounciation?!? For anyone outside Norway watching this: all norwegian words in this video sound nothing like they should. And more than half of the images used have nothing to do with Norway. Except most of the black and white photographs and some google maps screenshots. Oh, and that one picture of the Bergen docks.
Norsk er vanskelig og snakke siden vi bruker ander uttalelser en feks engelsk , som vil gjøre at han sier ordene feil, alle vet at når man sier ord på et annet språk så sliter du å uttale det riktig.
Don’t take it personally in every video they make there is many comments telling him he can’t pronounce it, every time...
@@blakesingleton7064 oh i found it funny, im just mad at those who takes it personally
@@sone3292 Sant nok. Og det var greit nok for det meste. Men han gjorde faktisk et poeng utav hvor annerledes vi sa Norge/Noreg og la det frem som om han visste hvorsan det egentlig skulle sies, og da kunne han googlet uttalen og fått den lest opp først. Eller bare sagt at det høres veldig annerledes ut.
Holy hell, the Norwegians in the comment section can’t give him a break, can they?
hahaha I love when you try to talk norwegian😂 You should have mentioned the northern light. And the time we have without the sun in North Norway every winter
Or the midnight sun😮(if he didn't mention it)
I'm norweagen and didn't even notice that the words in the beginning were norwegian

10:50 may 17th is not the day norway got independence,
Its the day our "grunnlov" was made.
(Basecally our laws was written on May 17th 1814)
Exactly, cuz Norway got it's independence in 1905.
Awesome video! Been following your channel since a very long time! Been inspired to start my own channel

the spelling of “akerselva/akerselven” has to do with east and west oslo accents. there i maaaaany accents and dialects in norway. different from one valley to the next. so we probably have 100s to thousands of pronounciations of “akerselva” or any word for that matter!

Well actuallyyyyyy Norwegian was not similar to danish and Swedish until it started to change around 1350 they basically spoke the same as Iceland and the fearoe islands which was old Norse or something
bob bobben so basically the same thing lmao
bob bobben they spoke how Icelandic is today then
bob bobben I don’t know the exact years and stuff but I know that Norway, Iceland and the Fareo islands spoke something similar and Denmark and Sweden spoke some shit, then Denmark colonized Norway and they started speaking Middle Norwegian or some shit. I meant that Norwegian ppl spoke a language kinda similar to icelandic. If ur an expert on this stuff I’m not gonna say you’re wrong, I learned this in school and I don’t really know how much my teachers know about this stuff. So yeah I’ve been told this in school but if it’s wrong my school is to blame
bob bobben edited the comment now, should be more correct than the other one
Oh and btw "Gods-expedition" is the name of the train line, where "gods" means "parcel" or "goods" in norwegian.
And Hell comes from the Norse word for cliff cave.
