[QUOTE="Astronuc, post: 6826660, member: 15685"] I'm not familiar with Nordic grammar. I've studied Spanish and German, and from German, I've understood some Dutch, at least as far as reading. I'd have to study Norwegian vs Danish/Swedish to understand better the grammar. I did have a German teacher, about 50 years ago, who spoke Norwegian/Danish/Swedish, and he did give us some lessons comparing Norwegian/Danish/Swedish. He encouraged us to learn many other languages, and he was of the opinion that learning German was a good step to learning Nordic and Dutch languages. He was a very rare person. [/QUOTE]
