Must be destiny!<BR/><BR/>Tell them I told them that they're wrong lol. We don't write "Syttende Mai", and very few people actually pronounce it like that. <BR/><BR/>Norwegian is always evolving, so I guess it's hard to keep up with the trends here if they don't live here..:Thea:.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03553513048732164500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33506976.post-73281558684436590982008-06-02T13:47:00.000-07:002008-06-02T13:47:00.000-07:00Hi Thea,Are you writing from Norway?

I was wondering how long it would be before someone in Norway discovered my blog.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure where the spelling "Syttende Mai" comes from, but the local Norwegian clubs and instructors I know use that spelling.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for dropping by!Chery Kinnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08662778019834533118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33506976.post-86413091918890681592008-06-02T12:19:00.000-07:002008-06-02T12:19:00.000-07:00"Syttende Mai", that's very Riksmaal. :p We say "s..."Syttende Mai", that's very Riksmaal. :p <BR/>We say "søttne Mai" these days. If we write it, we write "17. Mai".<BR/><BR/>Is it riksmaal, bokmål or nynorsk you've learned? <BR/><BR/>The weather here was -terrible-!! 8 degrees Celsius and raining! They said it was the worst May 17th in 50 years, had to cook our hot dogs indoors instead of barbecuing..:Thea:.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03553513048732164500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33506976.post-44769121621957758532008-05-19T10:15:00.000-07:002008-05-19T10:15:00.000-07:00Thanks for the reminder for Syttende Mai.
