  • This will be the first video in a new series I've decided to call Smart Norwegian. I'll be presenting interesting topics and explain linguistics in an easy to understand and most importantly, in a modern way! Obviously the title is a bit of a clickbait, but if you clicked on the video and still found it interesting, please let me know in the comments below! If you have any questions, ask me here or come join on Twitch!

    I just want to point out for anyone outside of Norway who doesn't know. The standard Norwegian read and written language form is called ''BokmÄl'', most foreigners who move to Norway will begin speaking Norwegian in BokmÄl and over time their spoken Norwegian will mold into whatever accent is spoken where they live, because people around them will speak in that accent. The Eastern Norwegian accent (Østlandsk) spoken in Oslo for example is the CLOSEST accent to BokmÄl in direct pronunciation, however there are differences because no one in Norway truly speaks ''BokmÄl'', it's just the standard written form of Norwegian.

    Great video, thanks. Just one thing: I would probably get rid of the music, it's not too bad, but it can interfere if you are trying to listen carefully to and remember a particular pitch accent for the first time.

    Man, I was having the biggest trouble understanding the pitch accent 2, thinking I was far from figuring it out and using it myself. But when you mentioned the verbs ending with "e" as common examples of it, I realized that I have been imitating that sound from Duolingo exercises for more than a year now. It all makes a lot more sense (I still have a long way to improve my listening skills). Thank you!

    Not learning Norwegian and not planning too, oh dear, I'm at 5th foreign language and I have 2 mother tongues, so 😅
    But omg, this sounds good, the way you pronounce this skrive, snakket, lopet, hoppet, I'm dying!
    If Norwegian were an international language, I would learn it, not trying to sound disrespectful. It's just that I have to learn all the UN languages first, and that's already quite a lot. They're also quite difficult, a lot of unknow alphabets 😅
    Thank you for making the video by the way, definitely learned something interesting.

    Du seier "ein skulle lĂŠra seg standard austnorsk, nĂ„r ein lĂŠrer seg norsk". Ja, slik er det, og slik blir det jo. Men som min lĂŠrar i nordisk ein gong sa det: dei burde lĂŠrt finnmarksidalekt, som ikkje har tonelagskille. Dette nemner du ĂČg i videoen. Dei uttaler bokmĂ„let slik det blir skrive, i endĂ„ stĂžrre grad enn standard austnorsk. I austnorsk har ein i tillegg retrofleksar, nokre av dei er svĂŠrt sjeldan i sprĂ„ka i verda. Dette er uttalemessig vanskeleg nok for oss frĂ„ Vestlandet. For innvandrarar, med dei aller fleste sprĂ„k, med unntak av nokre sprĂ„k i India som har tilsvarande retrofleksar, bortimot umogleg Ă„ fĂ„ til. SĂ„ eg stemmer for sprĂ„k-kassettar med folk frĂ„ Finnmark 🙂

      Thank you low languages. Swedish and Norwegian are both pitch languages, but Danish is not, and instead distinguishes between same words that we have pitch accent differences with something called stþd (literally means shock), which is a sort of small glottal stop! I’ll write it down and see if I can make a video about Danish stþd in the near future!

    As someone from south norway i find it so funny how people learning norwegian always try so hard to get these typical oslo dialect pitches correct, when the way i and people from here are speaking is completely different in the pitches. Just going for a random dialect is understandable though.

    Your Chinese third tone needs to dip deeper. The sound is like a capital V, but right now you're not making the distinction enough so it's more like a lower case v. You still have good Chinese though, but fixing that would make you sound much more native.

    In Danish, which is closely related to Norwegian, we have 'stĂžd' which seems to affect some of the same words as in Norwegian, e.g. 'bĂžnder' (with stĂžd) and 'bĂžnner' (without stĂžd). Reading the Wikipedia article I learned that some Danish dialects have no stĂžd but instead a pitch accent like Norwegian (and Swedish). đŸ€Ż en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St%C3%B8d

    • @PatrickAuri
      @PatrickAuri  Pƙed 20 dny +1

      I knew about stĂžd having the same function as pitch accent in Norwegian and Swedish, but I didn't know about the Danish dialects that have pitch accent! That's super interesting!
