The NLS Norwegian Language School is dedicated to providing comprehensive and effective language learning experiences. While our primary focus is on teaching Norwegian, we recognize the importance of understanding and utilizing both of the country’s official written standards.
Currently, our Nynorsk offerings are integrated within our broader Norwegian language programs. We do not offer standalone Nynorsk courses in the same way we might have specialized courses for beginners or advanced learners in Bokmål. However, Nynorsk is a significant component of our curriculum, particularly in the following ways:
- Integrated Nynorsk Exposure: Our intermediate and advanced Norwegian courses actively incorporate Nynorsk texts, grammar, and vocabulary. Students are exposed to the differences and similarities between Bokmål and Nynorsk, allowing them to develop an appreciation for both.
- Comparative Grammar Lessons: Where relevant, our grammar lessons will often include explanations and exercises that highlight Nynorsk paradigms and distinct features, contrasting them with their Bokmål counterparts.
- Reading Comprehension Exercises: Students will encounter Nynorsk passages in reading comprehension tasks, fostering the ability to understand this written form.
- Vocabulary Building: Our vocabulary building exercises and lists will include common Nynorsk words and their Bokmål equivalents.
- Teacher Expertise: Our instructors are proficient in both Bokmål and Nynorsk and can answer student questions regarding Nynorsk usage and grammar.
For learners specifically seeking intensive Nynorsk instruction or a foundational understanding of Nynorsk from the outset, we recommend discussing your goals with our admissions team. We can advise on the best course pathway to meet your individual needs, which may involve a personalized study plan or additional resources tailored to Nynorsk.
