Transcription: Hei! Jeg heter Emily og jeg snakker norsk! Jeg er ikke fra norge, egentlig, men familien min er opprinnelig fra norge. Tanten min flyttet seg til norge i sytti tallet, og hun trefft familien som bor i norge ennå. Jeg besøkte norge den første gangen i to tusen og fem, og det var vanskelig å snakke med dem fordi de snakker ikke engelsk perfekt. ...Perfekt engelsk? Kan du si det?... Men jeg trodde at jeg skulle lære meg norsk! Så tanten min hjelpte meg å lære norsk og jeg kjøpte masse CDer og så på masse leksjoner på YouTube og ting slik som det. Og jeg vet at min norsk er ikke perfekt, unnskyld for det! Jeg vet at familien skal kanskje se på dette og tenk til dem at det er kanskje veldig vanskelig. Men, erm, ja! Jeg tror at det er egentlig viktig for å lære språket fra det opprinnelig land, fordi... jeg vet ikke... jeg føler meg som det er en stor del av meg. Og når jeg besøkte norge for den første gangen jeg bare så meg rundt og trodde, «Det er helt fantastisk!» og jeg elsker, elsker, elsker norge, og skal kanskje flytte meg der som tanten min gjorde. Ja, og dialekten at jeg snakker er dialekten som det finnes rundt Oslo og i Oslo, fordi ting kan kjøpes for å lære norsk, er nesten helt i dialekten fra Oslo. Men det finnes mange mange mange dialekter over hele landet, og de er alle veldig vakre, synes jeg. Ja. Jeg tror at den første gangen, jeg har aldri følte meg hjemme så mye. Og så det ble veldig viktig for meg å lære norsk. ...Jeg er ikke mer å si. En av den beste ting om norsk, tror jeg, er at når du lære norsk, kan du lære svensk og dansk samtidig fordi de er så like. Så det er greit fordi jeg kan treffe folk fra sverige og folk fra danmark og forstår dem, men jeg snakker ikke svensk og jeg snakker ikke dansk, men det er liksom ... in the middle fra tre språk. Ja så takk for å se på og takk for å høre, jeg håper at det var ikke så vanskelig, unnskyld til familien min! Hei!! Aheheh... okai, så se deg senere og ha det bra!

Translation: Hi! My name is Emily and I'm speaking Norwegian. I'm not actually from Norway, but my family is originally from Norway. My aunt moved to Norway in the 70s and met the family who still live in Norway. I first visited Norway in 2005, and met the family, and it was difficult to speak with them because they didn't speak English perfectly. ...Or, perfect English... (can you say that?) ... but I thought I should learn Norwegian! So my aunt helped me to learn Norwegian, and I also bought lots of CDs and I also saw a lot of lessons on YouTube and things like that. And I know that my Norwegian is still not perfect, sorry about that, I know my family will probably see this and think to themselves that this is really difficult.

But I think that is really important to learn the language from one's original country, because, I don't know... I feel that it's a large part of myself. And when I visited Noway for the first time, I looked around and thought, 'This is so fantastic!', and I love, love, love Norway, and have thought about moving there one day, like my aunt did. The dialect that I speak is the dialect you find around Oslo, and the things that you can buy to learn Norwegian are almost entirely in this dialect from Oslo. But there are many, many dialects throughout the whole country. And they're all really beautiful, I think. I think that the first time I visited Norway, I had never felt so at home before. And so it became very important for me to learn Norwegian. ...Erm, I don't have anything else to say! One of the best things about Norwegian, I think, is that when you learn Norwegian, you can learn Swedish and Danish simultaneously, because they're so similar. So, it's great because I can meet people from Sweden and people from Denmark and understand them, but I don't speak Swedish and I don't speak Danish, I only speak Norwegian, but it's sort of... 'in the middle' of three languages. So that's really cool, I think.

So yeah, thanks for watching and thanks for listening to me, I hope it wasn't too hard, sorry to my family if it was! Okay, so, see you later and goodbye!
