Specs
Specs for a Norwegian delivery
- Script length
- Norwegian runs close to English in length, and the choice between Bokmål and Nynorsk is made in the script before recording.
- Register
- Norwegians use du in almost every context, so formality is carried by vocabulary and delivery rather than the pronoun.
- Delivery
- WAV or MP3, named to your convention.
- Native review before delivery
- A native Norwegian speaker checks the script and the takes.

Questions
Norwegian, answered.
Bokmål or Nynorsk?
Most commercial work is in Bokmål. Public bodies in some regions must also publish in Nynorsk, so we tell you if your client needs both.
Is the Norwegian read understood in Sweden and Denmark?
Largely, but ad copy lands better in the local language.
