Norwegian Language Course A2 Part 2

What you’ll learn

When you have finished the A2 level you will be able to understand daily life Norwegian quite well.

Here you have an overview of what´s covered at the A2 level. I can understand phrases and the highest frequency vocabulary related to areas of most immediate personal relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local area, employment).

I can catch the main point in short, clear, simple messages and announcements. I can read very short, simple texts.

I can find specific, predictable information in simple everyday material such as advertisements, prospectuses, menus and tables and I can understand short simple personal letters.

I can communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of information on familiar topics and activities.

I can handle very short social exchanges, even though I can’t usually understand enough to keep the conversation going myself.

I can use a series of phrases and sentences to describe in simple terms my family and other people, living conditions, my educational background and my present or most recent job.

I can write short, simple notes and messages. I can write a very simple personal letter, for example thanking someone for something.
