Video about Norwegian colors
The first thing I would recommend doing in order to learn the Norwegian colors, is to watch the video I made about the subject. The audio is in Norwegian but I have made subtitles in both Norwegian and English that you can turn on. You can also check out the transcript and translation of the episode here. If you want to listen to the pronunciation of each color separately, you can do that further down in this article.
