SMS Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 I learnt a lot of English from watching all three extended versions of Lord of the Rings with English subtitles. Quite a few words they don't teach us in childrens school in those films, especially those spoken by Gandalf; "hearken to me, I am no conjurer of cheap tricks!" I believe Norwegians learn much of their English from TV since we have subtitles and don't have actors saying the lines in Norwegian, does it work the other way around as well? How about Norwegian books on fishing, Ingar Heum's "Sportsfiske langs Oslofjorden" should be ideal since you will also learn about fishing opportunities in the most relevant area of the country for you.

cb Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Agree to your thoughts regarding dubbing vs subtitles and original-language on movies. Just look to other European countries like Germany, Italy, Spain and France. They dub their movies, and are quite lousy in english, both in writing and speaking. But the Dutch speaks english exellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
