Norwegian is natively known as Norsk and belongs to the Indo-European, Germanic, North Germanic language family.
There are approximately 5.3 million native speakers worldwide.
Norway has two official written standards: Bokm\xc3\xa5l (literally "book language," based on Dano-Norwegian) and Nynorsk ("New Norwegian," based on rural dialects), and all public institutions must accept both.
Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish are mutually intelligible to a significant degree, forming a dialect continuum across Scandinavia.
Bokm\xc3\xa5l is used by approximately 85-90% of the population and is the dominant written form in Oslo and most urban areas, while Nynorsk is stronger in western and central Norway.
Norwegian has a pitch accent system with two tonal patterns that can distinguish word meaning, a feature shared with Swedish but not Danish.
The Norwegian language debate (m\xc3\xa5lstriden) between Bokm\xc3\xa5l and Nynorsk supporters has been one of the most contentious cultural issues in Norwegian society for over a century.
The Norwegian community in Australia is small, with a few thousand Norwegian-born residents. Historical migration occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with some settlement in Queensland. Modern Norwegian residents are typically temporary workers, students, or professionals. Norwegian-Australian clubs exist in major cities but are small. Most Norwegians in Australia are highly proficient in English.
About Singapore
Singapore, an island city-state off southern Malaysia, is a global financial center with a tropical climate and multicultural population. Its colonial core centers on the Padang, a cricket field since the 1830s and now flanked by grand buildings such as City Hall, with its 18 Corinthian columns. In Singapore's circa-1820 Chinatown stands the red-and-gold Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, said to house one of Buddha's teeth.
Stamford Raffles founded colonial Singapore in 1819 as a trading post of the East India Company; after its collapse and the eventual establishment of the British Raj, the islands were ceded to Britain and became part of its Straits Settlements in 1826. During the Second World War, Singapore was occupied by Japan. It gained independence from the UK in 1963 by federating with other former British territories to form Malaysia, but separated two years later over ideological differences, becoming a sovereign nation in 1965.
