Reasons to Learn Norwegian
With Spanish, French, and German taking a strong lead in foreign language popularity, I find myself increasingly in a position of advocacy when it comes to the Norwegian language. As a less commonly taught language (LCTL), Norwegian is usually not the first thing that comes to mind when people are looking to enrich their linguistic repertoire. Students typically look for languages which they feel will be useful to them in the professional world and which they can share with a large number of potential speakers.
