We often use the word «målstriden» about this phenomena. Norwegian «strid» is not synonymous with English «war». I take issue with the use of the word «war» in this context.
This is very well informed and accurate. I can also confirm that Werner speaks Norwegian at near native level. (At least his Tromsø dialect would pass as native for most people from Oslo.) Some comments: The Dano-Norwegian language was frequently called 'dansk-norsk' around 1850, the term 'riksmål' came a few years later. The Samnorsk project was closely associated with the social democratic Labour Party, which no longer considered itself socialist at the time. The term 'nynorsk' ('New Norwegian') is meant to contrast with Old Norwegian, i.e. the way Norwegian is spoken today. Dictionaries mention "Norwegian language after 1500" as an alternative meaning of 'nynorsk', but usually "modern Norwegian" is used instead to avoid confusion. The 1938 reform still allowed 'soli' as a so-called "side form" in Nynorsk, but these forms and some related forms, called "i-mål" ("i-language"), were removed from standard Nynorsk in 2012. Bokmål had 'verken' as the only allowed form from 1959 to 2005, but now both 'hverken' and 'verken' are allowed in Bokmål. Some combinations of number forms are very rare or not used at all, like 'tyvetre'. The Donald Duck story is "Eggmysteriet", first published with the Nynorsk-speaking characters in 1963. The 1981 Bokmål reform reintroduced several forms that had not been not allowed because of the Samnorsk policy. This ended the Samnorsk era in practice, but Samnorsk was still official policy until 2002, although only in theory. The "bracket forms" were not allowed in school books. The system with "bracket forms" was abolished in Bokmål in 2005 and in Nynorsk in 2012. You may also hear news presenters using dialect nowadays, even when they read from a script. In principle, you may hear spoken dialect in any situation, no matter how formal. Some speakers even take care to speak "proper" dialect in formal settings, such as parliament speeches. Credit to Werner also for emphasising that the dialects are not that different from each other, contrary to popular belief. Yes, it's complicated.
I'm not sure if it's appropriate to call someone fake but know nothing about this person but a presentation. I mean obviously she did know some Japanese ... can't be fake and the pronunciation seem also be more than fake. So who are the people who calling other ppl fake? What's there achievement?
From my own experience, it am convinced language learning is different for everybody. For myself, I do not speak for several years, until I really understand a lot of vocabulary. I want to be able to read the language too on a reasonable level before I speak. Once I have that level, I can start speaking and after that I need a couple of weeks before I can speak reasonably well to native speakers. It has been this way for me with 4 languages and now I am working at Russian. In my opinion, it takes a longer time before one can read Russian reasonably well, because of the different alphabet and the stress issue.
What it seems like, just from the picture drawn in the first 8 minutes, is that once you've learned enough to go from ILR 0 to ILR 0+, or CEFR 0 to a really shaky CEFR A1, the rest of the picture just kinda draws itself once you've got the input going in, and once speakers are understanding your output. If you're afraid of mistakes, do it scared
Sou Brasileiro e sou muito fã do professor Tim Keeley. Principalmente por aprender tantas línguas asiáticas, esse também é meu sonho de vida. O senhor inspira ❤️
I'm not sure where this myth came from that Einstein wasn't good at mathematics. Einstein was an incredible mathematician, and he had to do a ton of incredibly dense calculations to work out his two theories of relativity. Obviously he wasn't as specialized as the mathematicians working on pure math-that wasn't his job-but that's a very different thing than saying "he wasn't particularly good at it." It's simply not possible to be a top-level physicist without a deep understanding of mathematics.
Irei maratonar seus videos pois penso em me mudar para o Paraguai pois me cansei do Brasil está morto e não á futuro aqui e o pior o povo em sua maioria esta submerso em corrupção não existe mais heróis ser vagabundo aqui é privilégio!
34:39 The French hate loanwords as much as Werner Herzog hates the French language. 36:00 The TDK, established by Atatürk in 1932 to research the Turkish language, also sought to replace foreign loanwords (mainly Arabic) with their Turkish counterparts. [w i k i List_of_replaced_loanwords_in_Turkish] The list of neologism in Finnish is also quite long. [w i k i Luettelo_suomen_kielen_uudissanoista] The best of which is to sepittää to make up (a story), to coin (a word) Etymology seppä (“smith”) + -ittää. Coined by Finnish explorer, historian and author Carl Axel Gottlund in 1828.
I'm a polyglot, and my accent isn't exactly native in any of my languages, even in my three native languages. But my accent doesn't sound like a specific foreign language either.
Informative in-depth video that covers the necessary nuances and context when discussing this 'How long does it take to (...)' question. Thanks Richard.
