## What is Norskappen?

Welcome to Norskappen, the ultimate app for learning Norwegian vocabulary, pronounciation and sentence structure! Whether you're a beginner or looking to enhance your proficiency, Norskappen is tailored to make learning Norwegian engaging and effective.

Let the vocabulary assistant teach and quiz you on our growing library of over 2000 frequently used Norwegian words, each complemented by native pronunciation recordings to help you perfect your accent. Our comprehensive resource of 6000 unique sentences will help you understand the context and usage of these words, boosting your sentence-building skills.

Norskappen employs a scientifically-proven spaced repetition system for vocabulary training, making it easier to remember words and recall them when needed. This system ensures your learning process is efficient and the knowledge gained is long-lasting.

Norwegian is famously difficult due to the genders of nouns, so we made our 'Guess the Article' minigame to assist you in learning and remembering them.

### 5/5 — Extremely helpful

*2026-08-03, version 1.5.0*

### 5/5 — A fantastic resource

*2025-10-28, version 1.5.0*

Thank you! Please, work on it some more, add some content.

### 5/5 — Best Norwegian app on the AppStore

*2025-10-07, version 1.5.0*

I cannot begin to describe how much help this app is. As a free learning tool this app far out beats Duolingo and other such apps it has audio and tons of written works to read! It also has fun learning games as well as a large dictionary and many different levels to learn from, it’s great for people starting out and people who have already begin learning. Would 100% recommend.

Votre application est déjà bonne! J’espère que vous continuerez à la fabriquer parce que j’apprécie ce que vous avez fait à date!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2025-06-06, version 1.5.0*

Super new to the app, but I love it. Great interface!!! It’s pretty good for learning a language.

You can’t practice speaking, but… no app is going to help your pronunciation.

Quality of Life improvements:

- Separated ENG->NOR review to make it less confusing.
- Added "lookup word online buttons (dictionary or google translate)" for when searching for a word not in "List of all words".
- All words are now up for review at the start of each day (to avoid that some are suddenly at 10:00 when you check the app, but then suddenly 30 more are due at 18:00).

- Increased volume for native recordings
- 2 new games! Verb conjugation & Preposition "Fill in the Blank"

New: select multiple words in the "Word List" then add, skip or reset progress all in one go.

### 1.2 — 2023-10-09

- Finally allows for both way reviews (Nor -> Eng & Eng -> Nor).
- Added filter in word list to see all word's that has been studied
- Words in review now come in a more shuffled order so it doesn't just go by the same way you learned them.
- Words can be added or re-added to the "words up for review" from inside the See more / Detail page. (Will work on implementing a feature to select multiple from word list itself in a future update).
