Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Norwegian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Norwegian and English. This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story.

Maybe you want to speak Norwegian with your friends from Oslo?

En: The Midsommernatten lay heavy over the Norwegian mountain landscape. No: Den lille hytta, omgitt av mektige trær, sto nesten i ett med naturen. En: The little cabin, surrounded by mighty trees, was almost one with nature. No: Kjetil, Sigrid og Astrid var der for å feire sankthans med bål og historier.
