Norwegian is a North Germanic (or Scandinavian) language in the Indo-European language group. It is closely related to Danish and Swedish, which are mutually intelligible. There are two official forms of written Norwegian; Bokmål (literally book language) and Nynorsk (literally new Norwegian). Bokmål resembles written Swedish and especially written Danish much more than Nynorsk. Most Norwegians, especially in the younger generation, speaks English.
