Description
This introduction to the Norwegian language is designed for both classroom use and self-study. The 13 lessons are intended for the beginning student. Each opens with a dialogue about an everyday topic, which is then broken down for the study of grammar and vocabulary. Cultural notes give the material its proper context, and exercises reinforce the student's mastery of the lesson. The audio CDs further complement the lesson material by helping the student learn the language as spoken. The book also includes an exercise key, an English-Norwegian glossary, and an introduction to the Norwegian language and its history.
