Norwegian through stories and practice

Learning Norwegian is the Komiks·Lab app for learning Norwegian Bokmål. Materials for levels A1–B2 combine reading, listening and exercises on everyday topics.

Comics about life in Norway

Short dialogues let you see words in context. A translation into your language helps you follow the phrases and the story.

Norwegian audio

Listen to the characters’ lines, go back to them and repeat them aloud to practise listening.

Words and grammar

A topic dictionary, explanations and examples help you work out new vocabulary and how Norwegian sentences are built.

Quizzes and exercises

Reinforce what you read with quizzes, flashcards and exercises. Come back to the material that needs review.

Learning at the computer

Set aside time for a short story about life in Norway. On a big screen it is easy to read dialogues, go back to the translation and study grammar examples. Pick material at your level — from first introductions to conversations at work.

Questions about the app for Windows

Which version of Windows do I need?

The current system requirements are on the Learning Norwegian page in the Microsoft Store. Check them before installing: compatibility depends on your device and the current release.

What if the store does not offer installation?

Check the store’s message about region, device or access to the current release. Until installation is available, you can open Komiks·Lab in the browser.

Do I need an internet connection?

You need the internet to download from the store and for online features. Not everything works offline; the available content depends on the app version.

Is Learning Norwegian suitable for beginners?
