Norwegian: An Essential Grammar (Essential Grammars)

Rating:
Summary: By far the Best
Review: Ã…se-Berit and Rolf Strandskogen have put together one of the best organized grammars in any foreign language. Organized by part of speech; it highlights all the basic rules as well as some subtle pearls of the Norwegian language. Not a course in itself, but a wonderful addition to any of the comtemporary Norwegian language courses currently published. I highly recommend it for any level learner.

Summary: Good book when used only for it's purpose.
Review: This book is an excellent Grammar book, in fact, language would be easier to learn if a book was made in this format for every language. The Authors, Ase-Berit and Rolf Strandskogen, are professors of Norwegian as a foreign language at the University of Oslo. This book tells nothing about Norweigan culture, it is not a Norwegian dictionary, it alone will not help you learn Norwegian. But, when used specifically for Norwegian grammar, it is the best book you can buy; and because grammar is essential in learning a foreign language, and speaking a native language correctly, this book is a must-have if you are learning Norwegian on your own.
