To learn the Norwegian sounds of these letters, write each example in the space provided in addition to saying the word many times. This is intended as a guide, so refer to it whenever you need help. After you practice the word, see if you can locate it on the map. Norwegian E 1 letter ae L a ah Stavanger (stah-vahng-er) au ow Haugesund (how-guh-soon) @ (varies) ay Sverige (svay-ree-uh) a uh Molde (moiduh) _Wlolda- *ei/eg w-ee Trondheim (trohnd-hae-cem) gei/gi/gj/gy y (as in yes) Gjovik (yuh-veck) i (varies) ee Narvik (nahr-veek) ih Kristiansand (trihst-yahn-sahn) j Y (as in yes) Dovrefjell (daw-vruh-fyel) kei/ki/kj/ky/tj hy (breathe hard) Kjgbenhayn (hyuh-ben-hahvn) O (varies) oh Oslo (oh-shloh) aw Norge (nawr-guh) U (varies) uh Jotunheimen (yoh-tuhn-hae-cem-en) - 00 Sovjetunionen (sohv-yet-oon-yohn-en) Y (varies) i Tyskland (tisk-lahnd) ee Myrdal (meer-dahl) @ uh Tonsberg (tuhns-bairg) a aw Alesund (awi-uh-soon) *e @ Veer oy (veer-uh-cc) *Note: The Norwegian letter ‘‘a,” and certain other letter combinations, are pronounced like the “‘a” in ‘cat.” Whenever this sound occurs in Norwe |, you will see a in the phonetics. _And whenever you see this @ you can say ‘‘cat” to yourself before ‘the word. You will have many chances to practice and * - perfect this sound in special sections throughout the book. Now practice the important words you learned on the inside front cover. Step i Eight Key Question Words Be rergu) : : : When you arrive in Norge, the very first thing you will need to do is to ask questions — Norway “Where is the train station?’ ‘Where can I exchange money?” ‘‘Where (hvor) is the lavatory?” “fivor is a restaurant?” “Hvor do I catch a taxi?” “‘Hvor is a good hotel?” “‘Hvor is my luggage?” — and the list will go on and on for the entire length of your visit. In Norwegian, there are EIGHT KEY QUESTION WORDS to learn. For example, the eight key question words will help you to find out exactly what you are ordering in a restaurant before you order it — and not after the surprise (or shock!) arrives. Take a few minutes to study and practice saying the eight basic question words listed below. Then cover the Norwegian words with your hand and fill in each of the blanks with the matching (nawrshk)(ord) norsk ord. Notice that all but one question ord begin with “hv” (pronounced “‘v”’). word Norwegian word (vor) p 1. HVOR = WHERE Zz yoru, Prugry 2. HVA = WHAT (vem) . 3. HVEM = WHO ; (vor-for) : 4. HVORFOR = WHY 5. NAR = WHEN (vor-dahn) 6. HVORDAN = HOW (vor) (mee-uh) 7. HVOR MYE = HOW MUCH (vor) (mahng-uh) 8 HVOR MANGE = HOW MANYNow test yourself to see if you really can keep these ord straight in your mind. Draw lines between the norske 0 og English equivalents below. when hvor mange why hvem who hva how many hvor how hhvor mye where hvorfor how much hvordan what nar (aw) Examine the following questions containing these ord. Practice the sentences out loud og words then quiz yourself by filling in the blanks below with the correct question ord. (er)(en) foxes -fohn) Hvor er en telefon?

Then write out each sentence without looking at the Norwegian example. If you don’t succeed on the first try, don’t give up. Just practice each sentence until you are able to do it easily. Don’t forget that the “‘h” in “‘hv’’ is silent. Also, in 0 pore there are three extra letters — a (w), @ (uh) and & (aw). ‘Norwegian 8) (tahe-ge} Hvor er en buss? en taxi? er toalettet?

Of course, they do not always sound the same when spoken by a Norwegian, but the similarity will certainly surprise you. Listed below are five “free” ord ane with “A” to help you get started. Be sure to say each ord aloud (aw) og then write out the norake ord in the blank to the right. Free ord like these will appear at the bottom of the following pages in a yellow color band. Check them off as you learn them. They are easy — enjoy them!Step 2 ~_ (nawwrshk) All of these words mean “‘a” or ‘“‘an” in norsk and come before the ord.
