«The transportation is excellent» *laughs in northern norwegian*

Never heard an American sound so ... not American when pronouncing foreign words. Cool!

I get spooked whenever an American speaks Norwegian that well. Really nice video by the way!

As a northern Norwegian, I always concidered us the Scottish of Norway. But apparantly we're the Asians of Norway. I can live with that.

You can really tell he enjoyed his experience by his expressions as he mentions some of his memories. How refreshing to see an American actually immersing in another culture to the point of learning the language and sounding good!!

It’s quite the surreal experience listening to someone explain Norway so accurately - from a place of understanding (as well as respect) - yet also as an outsider. For instance, I’ve never heard Julaften be explained in such a way that it sounds completely correct but also completely foreign. Thank you, sir! You were a delight to listen to! As a Norwegian, I felt the pride swell in my heart, and I was happy to hear the genuine love with which you speak of Norway. Bonus: I had to laugh when you mentioned how proud us from Bergen are of our dialect. Correct, again.

its literally just Norwegians in this comment section

«Kvikk Lunsj is almost like a KitKat» Every single Norwegian be like: 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

As an American who recently moved to Norway this is probably the best description I've heard. But take him seriously when he says Norwegians are reserved. Trying to find your way socially and learning the language with the dialect/accent of your region are probably the biggest struggles for an American living here

This guy is just praising Norway and us Norwegians, and he is also really good at pronouncing the norwegian words and the different dialects. This guy looks genually happy when he talks about Norway and that. Makes me so happy 😊💕

When an American starts talking about the oil of another country, I start to panic.

I love how fondly he speaks of the country. It's really heart warming.

"Det var 27 grader og vi hadde 7 meter snø" haha very good northern dialect though ;)

Kudos to this guy: Better with dialects than most eastern norwegians/Oslo

So imprest by your norwegian! It is a difficult language to learn, especially with the dialects

You know us Norwegians, we "Work to LIVE" not "Live to Work"

I love that he’s actually good at Norwegian😂 he pronounced almost every word perfectly

Norwegian version of 4th of July is of course May 17th!

That guy looks very Norwegian

Starts talking about transportation systems Him:“The transportation system is great” Me: in the big cities, yes but where I live they are nearly non existent.

His Norwegian pronounciation is quite good!

I suspect he is a Mormon missionary. Just by the way he speaks and carries himself. He also mentions knocking on doors. Also would explain why his Norwegian is so good

Spot on this guy is a Norwegian now, you can't escape it, your one of us now you'll start craving for Grandiosa pizza and kicking people of of your home because they walking in wearing their shoes, walking snow into my house is a total lack of respect for me and the fact I hate cleaning the dam floor!.

As a norwegian from the east I APPROVE OF THIS 👍

This is so spot on! I really enjoyed the part when you ask a Norwegian: "How are you doing?" They takes the question literally and tell you how they are doing. And kudos with the dialecs as well, great job!

I’m a norwegian and I can confirm everything, you are literally amazing ❤️❤️

I've gotten mildly addicted to listening to peoples opinions of Norway. Interesting seeing it through a none Norwegians eyes.

I could listen to this man speak all day

Many similarities with Finland. Hello to my norwegian brethren.

I laughed loudly at "'Æ kjæm fra Bodø!". That was perfect

His voice is so soothing wow

Im glad you liked your stay in norway :) Hearing you speak dialect was so adorable and good! It made me smile :D

and u remember so much and seems so happy when talking about it😍 seems like u had good memories here, loved this

Never have I felt so accurately described by a foreign man trying to describe the average norwegian's values and behaviour. The way he's also able to speak different dialects is also very impressive. This guy has to be a very intelligent man.

This was very enjoyable. you really liked Norway, I can tell because you remember all that stuff so well. You are indeed welcome back.

It's fascinating hearing this guy switch between English and Norwegian, and doing the various Norwegian dialects rather well. Love from this US-born (Livermore CA), Norway-raised dual citizen.

I'm proud how well he pronounces the different Norwegian word. You made a Norwegian happy.

LOVED THIS. so right in things that he said. Love from Stavanger, Norway 🇳🇴 ❤️

This was so nice! He really knows a lot and the way he speaks Norwegian is so cute

Guns are allowed in Norway, but you'll have to have permission. That's not to hard, but it comes with certain requirements.

Your norwegian is amazing. never hear an american pull it of so good. Impressive. Im from Trondheim in mindtnorge, in wich seems to be a part of the country you forgot exist. ;)

I clicked this video just to see how many Norwegians commented... I’m not disappointed with what I found lol

Thank you for sharing this video, I'm loving it. ^^

I like the way this guy talks, it's so relaxing... He should do some ASMR! :-)

DUDE!! Your pronunciation is perfect!! In all dialects!!

As someone who is half Norwegian half Ecuadorian who has lived half her life in both countries. I can say that all of what he is saying is very true. But sadly kids and teens in Norway are often very spoiled. Not all. But a big chunk of them are. In my school I find a lot of the kids take too much for granted and are very ungrateful for the privileges they have. I have seen many kids in my highschool with an iPhone X throw it across the room. I have overheard kids complaining about their parents being too “poor” and just being outright disrespectful to the teachers to a point I start getting beyond enraged. Appreciating what they have is something they learn a lot later in life when they become adults (18-25 years old) and have to support themselves.

well norwegians are very shy and often sit alone on the bus and doesn't talk to others, but once you become freinds with us you realize that we are very nice, the most of us.

Is this guy a linguist? His understanding of dialects and language is very good.

Norway is actually 17th in the world with most guns per capita. But we mostly just use it for hunting, and we are ok with that

Gotta love it when an American manage to pronounce Norwegian words and not botch it like alot of other people do.

Omg. This dude’s beautiful.

Spot on with the dialects, really impressive! Love from Bodø ✌️

Hmm. I'm from So Cal, live and work in Norway...and I work like crazy 🤣 But I love it here and enjoy the best of both worlds 🇸🇯🇺🇸 and Viva la Kvikk Lunsj!!!

It warms my heart❤️🇳🇴🇳🇴 And also, you killed the dialects😁👌🏽 almost better than me😂

Wow impressing description of Norway and Norwegians! Well done!! Proud Norwegian here and i was laughing by myself and recognising very well what he was talking about :). And also different dialects he is managing very well ! Well done!

watching the whole thing just for that northern sentence at the end was so worth it XD Kudos to your amazing Northern dialect. - a Northerner

I am am really impressed of your observations. And I am a Norwegian

Im from Bergen and I would say you nailed that dialect pretty good!

His western and northern dialects are soo good, especially the fisherman one! He does it better than me and im Norwegian, how is this even possible, haha!

You and your brother really makes me more proud of my country :-) . Really glad You like our people . You both seem to be very honest. "Good Americans".

wow your Norwegian is on point and I love your understanding and respect of our culture. Very impressive

About safety; growing up in a large town outside Stavanger, never locked the door =P I was so confused when I came home to a locked door once O_o

His voice is just . . . so perfect . . .

Hey, like your video :) Just one thing that is not easy to understand if you're not interrested in this topic. Guns are allowed if: You are a Norwegian citizen. You are a registered hunter, then you can apply for a gun license, and if you're record is clean, then you will get it approved within 3 months. The weapons you can get for being a hunter is shotguns and hunting rifles. Hunting without gunpowder is not allowed in Norway. If you want a pistol, you need to be a member of a shooting club for atleast 3 months, and the pistol is not allowed for self defence, only for sports shooting. I hope this covered some questions.

Kvikk lunch and Solo aren’t just an easter thing, they are common all year round

Im from Norway, it is great to live here.

this guy's voice is so soothing he could be an asmrtist

its somthing spesial about this guy, cuz i just want to keep on listening to him speeking about my culture

us people from Norway come here just to hear good stuff about ourself =)

Dude, your Bergen dialect was perfect!

I live in Bergen, and I am impressed!

Wait what? You totally nailed the Bergen dialect! Like seriously, you get it more right than me😂 I was totally shocked

This guy both looks and sounds Norwegian. He definitely has a really good grasp of life here too!

Thank you for those kind words =)

Actually we have alot of guns homes, but you cant buy automatic weapons, and to buy pistols and revolvers there are strict rules to how to aquire it and you need to be a member of a pistolclub to be allowed to buy one. Almost all weapons norwegians own are like rifles and shotguns and it is for use for hunting and sport. To aquire a gun you would apply police who check your background and approve if you are allowed to buy one. Also very strickt rules to store weapons home.

Something tells me you never went to the south! You should try it sometime! Great video!

Love Norway🇳🇴 from Malaysia🇲🇾.

What a great guy. You're welcome back anytime!

He nails the different dialects!

Make me smile :-) thank you :-) Impressed by your dialekt Wow. Love it

Perfect 👌 Tank you for nice words 😊

My boyfriend is eastern Norwegian, and I'm VERY american and I have literally sent myself into mental breakdowns trying to learn norwegian so I can talk to him in his native language

You left out the whole south of Norway. you should try southern Norway during summer if you ever get the chance! Known for boating, islets and the very summer'y feel all around. Sort of like a Florida just without the same heat... but then again no humidity and the sun gives you a warmer feeling than what you're used to.

Wow. His dialects are really good for being an american. I don't think I've heard an American go fully native Bergenser, Østlending and Nordlenning at once.

im from norway and just had to say im very fucking impressed man. from bergen myself but your bergens dialekt was insanely good

Was gonna comment on how we actually have guns in Norway but was so amazed at your northern dialect that I'm gonna let that one slide.. You rock lol!👍

Try saying something in Trøndersk, It's quite something. It's like a mishmash of all the dialects into one, and no one excepts us can fully understand it :') We have a phrase that goes "Hannhoinnj i bannj og ett spannj med blandevannj i annjer hannja" Which directly translated to "A male dog on a leash and a bucket of mixing water (for alcohol) in the other hand"

I like this guy, his norwegian is very good!

this dude almost know more about my country than I do...

Great review and very accurate!

Quite good explanation friend. So many people say "Hei, Hei and finished. Your very much in the button! Enjoy day, week and life. Takk skal du ha!

Love from Bergen❤️

This is actually really really good! The only thing I would correct is how people in the west pronounce the R. That R comes from southern norway, so only some southern parts of western norway use it, Bergen being one of them. in the rest we have the same Rs as in eastern norway.

Everyone in your group are very polite!

Actual division of Norway: East, West, South, Central, North

Haha thanks! This was awesome! Perfect dialect.

Are you sure you are not norwegian? You do speak norwegian very good and some prononciation is pretty accurate too. However ... as a northerner I must point out we do say kommer like in Æ kommer fra Bergen... but we do shorten alot of our words too like E instead of Er (is)

Proud Norwegian!❤️🇳🇴 Great pronunciations of the Norwegian words.😃👍

Omg, so good you are in Norwegian! But you forgot us in “the middle” - Trøndelag😢 How long were you here?

Indeed, a very good summary of an American's impressions of Norway. How long have you worked there. The depth of your knowledge of the language suggests that you've lived there for quite a while. Hope to see you here again.
