Good day.
I wanted to begin this thread because I am quite the Nynorsk/New-
Norwegian fanatic.
First there is an issue. In the Norwegian translation of words,
such as Kjole, Kjøttdeig, Tjær, Køyre, Kjøpe and Keisamt, is the
pronunciation of the KJ, TJ, KEI and KØY completly wrong. It is
suppose to be a sort of "Ch" sound. But in the translation the voice
actually says the word with an "Sh" sound, which makes the word
neither Nynorsk nor Bokmål, but rather the preferred dialect from the
voice.
For me and many in Norway, this is actually an issue. This strange
sound makes the language sound more "baby-like", and childish.
So for the sake of real Norwegian, please fix this mistake.
And for the second and last part here, I must ask if you may make a
Nynorsk(New-Norwegian) translation. This is mostly for the eastern
part of Norway, which ignore the New-Norwegian due them thinking it's
a minority language, such as Sami. Which it is n o t.
This new translation will not just be for the people of Norway, but
also for other cultures and communities that wishes to learn this
fantastic and strong language.
It would have been terrific if you would make such an add, Thank
you.
(One inportant thing about the voice in that translation, is that it
has to be spoken by someone who knows New-Norwegian well, as the
majority of the Western Coast. (Especially Sunnmøre which is the Orgin
of this writing language.) And just another tip. Do not use voices
from the cities, because they are very effected by the Bokmål, and
therefore it may not be the best way for the pronunciation. I would
suggest persons from Volda, Ørsta, Valderøya or Geiranger maybe.)
Thank you for reading, I hope I get replies, Hade bra! :)
