Why do they write in Danish?
>>214742779They were a colony of Denmark. Why did you create a separate thread for this worthless question? If it's a bait, you could make something better.
They are basically North Danes
>>214742779because hinga dinga durgen can best be expressed in Danish
>>214742779Because Danish evil knows no bounds
>>214742779>norwegian write in danishnor way.
whats le luton mans name written in danish?
>>214743197Surely they could express it in their own dialects?
Three centuries of Danish humiliation.>>214743620Norwegian nationalists made one after the breakup and it turns out having a written language made up of dialects is shit and nobody wants to use it.
I dont get itwhat do you mean they write in Danish?
>>214743843>it turns out having a written language made up of dialects is shit Every written language was formed around dialectsI think for French it was the French spoken in Paris and for Italian it was the langage spoken in central Italy...Sweden it was Stockholm, for Finland it was more western but later on it also adopted a lot of eastern stuff (because we REALLY liked the eastern larp back then)
>>214743883Difference is that they traveled the country and went with how hillbillies and rednecks speak instead of Oslo because then they would have just ended up with Danish again.
>>214743994Imagine speaking urban east norwegian haha
>>214743855written norwegian (the standard most people use, anyway) is based on written danish.
>>214743620We do. We have two written languages. But the non-Danish one is hated by everyone except people from west-Norway
once id like to visit tromso, which version of norwegian should i learn?
>>214743843You could all just learn Icelandic and larp. Or carry on, Swiss Germs use written German but have their own spoken kantonal dialects which helps filter outsiders
>>214746628>But the non-Danish one is hated by everyone except people from west-NorwayThat's a shame"draum", "ein", "stein" and "heim" sounds way better than "drøm", "en", "sten" and "hjem"
>>214747072Bergen is the the nynorsk aka SOUL capital https://youtube.com/watch?v=n6GoLELCbTEEvery norwegian knows that only nynorsk works with opera
>>214748563okay, but isn't bokmal and nynorsk simply standards for the written word? or are they also used when spoken?
>>214748563But opera works better with the rolled r and not with the guttural r thoughbeit
Trøndersk should be the standard written form of Norwegian
>>214742779For a long time, the country was nothing without food and money from Denmark
>>214748931Are you the edgy Pole?
>>214742779We taught them how to write
>>214748866>But opera works better with the rolled r and not with the guttural r thoughbeitNynorsk derives from spoken dialects outside Bergen city. Nynorsk doesn't have the Bergen gutteral R' but a much more toned down gutteral R' Typical female choir from Bergen https://youtube.com/watch?v=Wy6WmD61hXAI'm not a song expert but Bergen dialect has the same tone to it as nynorsk
>>214748972Who taught the Danes to write?
>>214751495Italians twice lelFuthark viking alphabet came from Germanic contact with Etruscans, Rhaetians and other pre Latin ItaliansLatin alphabet came with Christian monks knowledgeable in Latin
>>214751808Gonna have to put an akshully here to my post, the correct is ItalicItalian is the modern country
>>214743620we do.danish/bokmål is only written
>>214742779we have two written forms of our language, landsmål and cuckmål(danish/east norwegian)
>>214752875Why is East Norwegian cuck?
>>214752146Some people said the dialect spoken in Oslo is almost a "spoken bokmål"
>>214752985It's basically danish in denial. It's almost on the same level as if americans declared their version of english as a seperate language and called it american
>>214752996>almostyeah
>>214753153Yep, some East Norwegisms like even the pronunciation of the city nameUsh-rluAnd the happy sing song tone with uplift end sentence
>>214742779they have two written standards, one of them might sound Danish yeah
>>214752146why not write in dialect?
>>214754524That's the purpose of nynorsk, those Norwegians who feel Danish spelling has too large gap with their dialect use thisDanish orthography became a thing because because bureaucrats in urban Norway were commonly Danish during the union, and Norwegians went to study at the U of Cph for a long eraNynorsk isn't difficult to read for me either, maybe slightly bit harder than Swedish. But its an attempt at condensing West Norwegian dialects into orthography
>>214754524Dialect is used but it can sound funny sometimes
>>214755144ThisWe have a famous author in Denmark, Steen Steensen Blicher from Jutland. His texts are good quality imoBut now and then he would write in his local jysk dialekt and it looks funny as fuckHe tries to make it an allround jysk but it doesn't look at all like my dialect for instanceThat's how we get people speaking dialect but not writing
>>214754524eeh. not sure. i do if i'm talking to friends, and thats fairly normal i guess. some songs are written in dialect, poems, but it's not that common
>>214754893It has to do with history. Norway was at it's greatest during Norgesveldet when Bergen city / west Norway was hq. This was the time period when Ireland, Scotland, Greenland, Iceland and more was part of it and before any influence from Denmark.
>>214742779Why doesn't the US have its own language?
>>214757454Bergen was also founded as a catholic city so it was not a popular place when the Protestant church started to become big in Sweden and Denmark. I think I remember reading that Danish Protestants had the goal of overthrowing all of Norway and that there are symbolic Catholic objects from Bergen that are in museums in Denmark today.
>>214742779Something somethning hard r
