Colloquial Norwegian contains 20 lessons, each introducing about

100 new words. Each lesson is built around a series of smaller units

and includes: texts, dialogues, grammatical explanations, examples

of 'Language in use\ and exercises.

At the back of the book you will find a brief guide to Norwegian

pronunciation, a short review of main grammatical points, a key to

exercises, and English-Norwegian as well as Norwegian-English

glossaries.

Below, we explain in more detail about the aim of the various

units and the best way of working with them. If you are to derive

maximum benefit from the book, we suggest you should not skip

this introduction!

Norwegian is closely related to English, so the early texts aim to be

so simple that learners with English as their mother tongue will be

able to understand them in main outline if not always in detail.

Later, as the texts centre on more specialized subjects, each will be

furnished with word lists to help you understand.

The sentence structure in the texts is not normally difficult, but

some passages contain a vocabulary drawn from special areas. In

such cases we have found it useful to provide lessons with relevant

headings. Thus, there are many words concerning the weather in

Lesson 11, ('The weather'), and terms relating to parliamentary

elections in Lesson 20, entitled 'Life in Norway'.

The passages represent the written language and are intended (a)

to be generally informative, (b) to expand vocabulary and (c) to

illustrate grammatical points which are then discussed immediately

afterwards. You will then be able to concentrate on those aspects of

the texts which are of most interest to you, in the sense that

although ideally you should learn all new vocabulary as it appears,

this is not strictly necessary if you want to move on. We do, how-

ever, strongly advise you to use the passages as illustrations for the

Language sections immediately following. It is important for the

understanding of language that the examples given in these gram-

matical sections should also be seen in context.

Language points

We use as few grammatical terms as possible, but they can, of

course, not be avoided entirely, and therefore to help those learners

who have not previously had experience of grammatical terms - or

have forgotten them - we have tried visually to illustrate each new

term as we introduce it.

The general principle employed in introducing grammar is to go

from the easy to the more difficult. Thus, we do not aim at dealing

with verbs in their entirety first, then nouns, and so on.

No grammatical problem is introduced unless it has been illus-

trated in the preceding text passage or dialogue. While working

with the grammar, you should therefore constantly keep an eye on

the text above.

We have used a series of patterns to help you with word order.

This method has a particular appeal to those whose method of

learning is visual. Moreover, a single pattern can often demonstrate

what it otherwise would take paragraphs of explanation to describe.

Naturally, these patterns do. not tell you every single thing about

Norwegian word order, but they indicate a very practical and usable

approach. To go further would demand a far more comprehensive

grammar.

You should take care to become familiar with the grammar in

Colloquial Norwegian as it is introduced. Each lesson is based on

the assumption that you have understood the grammar in the

preceding lessons, even if you have not learnt it thoroughly.

Dialogues

The dialogues represent the spoken language, which often cannot be

translated word for word. Here we are dealing mainly with phrases,

not words. This does not, however, imply that the dialogues are less

important. On the contrary, they contain the everyday language

which you will meet in the street, in the home, and anywhere else

where people communicate orally. Without this language of

communication you would find yourself in difficulties when faced

with a situation in which oral communication was necessary. We

therefore advise you not to neglect any of the dialogues. If you have

the cassettes, you should work with each of them in the following

manner:

1 Listen to the dialogue until you can understand it. That will

inevitably take some time. Your first impression will be that the

readers speak very fast, but a deliberate attempt has been made

to maintain a normal speed so that the dialogue should not

. appear artificial. Listen first with the text before you, and then

with your book closed. You can learn much merely by listening.

2 Now - with your book open - try to imitate the replies one by

one. You can do this by stopping your tape after each line of

dialogue and repeating it parrot-fashion. Make a real effort to get

as close as possible to both sound and intonation.

3 When you are satisfied with your efforts, you can test yourself as

follows: Play one line of the dialogue and answer it with the next

before playing that on the tape. As you play the taped version,

you will be able to decide for yourself where your mistakes (if

any) lie. Now, repeat the process, taking the part of the other

speaker in the dialogue.

The dialogues, like the texts, are also closely related either to the

'Language points' or to the 'Language in use'.

Language in use

These sections have more assorted contents, but are not less impor-

tant. They can, for instance, tell you what word is used in such and

such a situation, or simply contain common phrases that you ought

to know, but which you cannot be expected to construct for yourself

without further ado.

Exercises

These form an important part of the language teaching; they not

only practise and so reinforce the points that have been explained,

but also often introduce you to new vocabulary and features which
