Learn the Nordic languages this fall in classes offered at Scandinavia House!

Continuing from Norwegian 4 or 5, this course will expand and refine your speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills as you deepen your knowledge of Norwegian culture. Hone in on your comprehension, fluency, and accuracy as you engage more confidently in conversations and discussions with your classmates and teacher, further expanding your vocabulary and mastering more complex grammatical structures. Through the study of themes related to daily life, students are encouraged to talk about their own experiences in Norwegian. In-depth focus will be given to pronunciation, Norwegian structure, tone, and flow. There will also be weekly at-home exercises, a film, and more, focusing on listening, reading, writing, and grammar, as well as an end-of-semester presentation which focuses on creativity, content, and delivery.

Students are strongly encouraged to watch and read Norwegian news and books, shows and movies, and to listen to podcasts/audio books, several times a week, to be as immersed as possible in the Norwegian language, thus advancing their fluency and listening skills.

Students should be comfortable leading conversations in Norwegian, using the simple past tense and present perfect. They should have knowledge of regular and irregular verbs, as well as their irregularities and rules. They should also be able to use indefinite, definite, and plural forms of masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns; conjugate adjectives; and apply intermediate Norwegian sentence structure, including “inversion.” 

This hybrid class will be held both in-person and via Zoom; in-person attendance for the first four classes is highly recommended. Classes take place on Wednesdays from 7:15-9:15 PM beginning September 30 and ending December 9.

*Please note that there will be no class the week of Thanksgiving, November 26.*
