Øn å PC, it is møre difficult, becåuse yøu håve tø knøw the ÅSCII cøde før the symbøls yøu type. Type "Ålt" ånd then the number øf the letter yøu wånt. Sø Ålt-129 shøuld give yøu "ü".

Yøu cån find ÅSCII cødes here.

Edit: øøps, missed øne.

[Hardrada]

57. Tak skal du ha

[Hardrada]

58. Do you type "Alt" or press down the key?

I can't make this work on my PC.

[ZombieNixon]

59. Umm...I think yøu just hit "Ålt"

But try bøth.

[Hardrada]

61. I type G and then hot Alt and type 129 trying to get a u mit umlaut

but all I get are the numbers and if I type in Alt and then type 129 all I get is Alt129. Maybe my PC does not understand these things. I have been trying for about ten minutes now!

[ZombieNixon]

62. Hmm...weird. Do you have a keypad?

Sometimes it works on the keypad but on the number row. :shrug:

[Hardrada]

63. I'll try that. Tusen takk!

[Hardrada]

64. Skål! I think I figüred it out!

But what ASCII number does one type for the O and o with a slash. I couldn't find that on the list. I intend to make practical use of this.

69. Bokmål or Nynorsk?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_language

As established by law and governmental policy, there are currently two official forms of written Norwegian – Bokmål (literally "book language") and Nynorsk (literally "new Norwegian"). The Norwegian Language Council recommends the terms "Norwegian Bokmål" and "Norwegian Nynorsk" in English, but these are seldom used. The language question in Norway has been subject to much controversy during the past generations. Though not reflective of the political landscape in general, written Norwegian is often described as a spectrum ranging from the conservative to the radical. The reason is that successive spelling reforms have resulted in an increased number of optional forms in spelling and grammar, allowing for greater possibility of combining elements from both written forms, particularly in the Bokmål variant. The current forms of Bokmål and Nynorsk are considered moderate forms of conservative and radical versions of written Norwegian, respectively.

Throw in Riksmal, and you end up with the saying "Every Norwegian knows four languages -- and three of them are Norwegian!"
