Professional translation to and from Norwegian
The Norwegian language has two written forms
The Norwegian language is in many ways similar to Danish. However, if you use a Danish text in Norway, it may look like you haven’t made an effort and your intentions about doing business in Norway may seem unprofessional. Regardless of the industry – tourism, the industrial and food sector or the energy sector – professional translation will often be crucial for success.
For the same reason, the Norwegian translators of SPROGNET TRANSLATIONS in general only translate into their native language in order to ensure the best and most natural result. Our Norwegian translators are literally Norwegian.
Your Norwegian translation is in safe hands with us – because we know what proper communication across borders and cultural differences means. And we are specialised in making it happen!
The Norwegian language situation is unique, since there are two official forms of written Norwegian – Bokmål and Nynorsk. As a Norwegian student, you choose what form to use as your main language form. Today, approx. 90% choose Bokmål and approx. 10% choose Nynorsk.
The background is historical – for 300 years, Norway was part of Denmark, and Danish was the official written language in Norway. With the independence of Norway from Denmark in the early 1800s, Norway wanted to create an independent Norwegian written language. This was done by means of two competing methods – one method adjusted Danish for it to gradually fuse into a spoken Norwegian language (resulting in the current Bokmål) and the other method created a whole new written language based on the Norwegian dialects (resulting in the current Nynorsk).

We know the Norwegian legislation
Rules and regulations related to product safety and documentation require a lot from manufacturers of for instance technical products, food and cosmetics. It is important to use the correct Norwegian terms on the informative label and ingredient list to avoid product recall. The same applies to Norwegian user manuals for potentially hazardous products. Our Norwegian translators are familiar with these rules and regulations.
Norwegian translation is one of our specialist fields, but it is not the only language, which we offer. One of the many advantages of using SPROGNET TRANSLATIONS is that we can handle many languages at once.
