Fine-Tune Your Norwegian Through Film
Register for this Spring 2023 course on the new NYU SPS Academy of Lifelong Learning website.
Improve your knowledge of Norwegian by watching contemporary Norwegian language films and then engaging in lively discussions about the stories, actors, settings, and language. This immersive course examines how Norwegian is spoken—from formal Norwegian to colorful slang, from Bokmål to New Norwegian. Acquire a better knowledge of idiomatic expressions and grammar structures while honing your listening skills. Each week, you will watch an assigned film on your own schedule, and then class discussions will explore the cultural, linguistic, and sociopolitical issues raised. Optional short writing assignments ensure comprehension and individualized feedback. Participation in this course does require at least intermediate Norwegian language proficiency.
