The Norwegian Language
- 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 La Perouse
La Perouse is a suburb in south-eastern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The suburb of La Perouse is located about 14 kilometres south-east of the Sydney central business district, in the City of Randwick. The La Perouse peninsula is the northern headland of Botany Bay. It is notable for its old military outpost at Bare Island and the Botany Bay National Park. Congwong Bay Beach, Little Congwong Beach, and the beach at Frenchmans Bay provide protected swimming areas in Botany Bay. La Perouse is one of few Sydney suburbs with a French name, others being Sans Souci, Engadine and Vaucluse.
Kurnell is located opposite, on the southern headland of Botany Bay. La Perouse was named after the French navigator Jean-François de Galaup, comte de Lapérouse (1741–88), who landed on the northern shore of Botany Bay west of Bare Island in January 1788 only days after Captain Arthur Phillip and the first fleet of convicts arrived in Australia . Louis XVI of France had commissioned Lapérouse to explore the Pacific In April 1770 James Cook's expedition had sailed onto the east coast of Australia whilst exploring the south Pacific searching for Terra Australis or ‘Land of the South’.
Upon King Louis XVI's orders, Lapérouse departed Brest, France, in command of Astrolabe and Boussole on 1 August 1785 on a scientific voyage of the Pacific Inspired by the voyages of Cook. La Perouse in Sydney's south is named after the leader of this French expedition.
