You can practice by recording your words and hear yourself repeat them . Shows your progress , words your good at and words you need more practice . Very helpful indeed ### 5/5 — Very good! *2019-12-30, version 5.8.0* It’s brilliant and effective. Can’t believe how fast I’m learning Norsk. ### 5/5 — Great supplement *2019-11-27* This is a great supplement to use with a Norsk textbook. The Mystery of Nils is the book I’m using and I love I can favorite words and it adds them to a separate section. The player is great and the options to play back the speed as well as a choice of the voice you want used are great. ### 5/5 — Highly useful! *2019-11-25, version 5.8.0* Norwegian will now be my 4th language, thanks to you. Tusen takk! ### 5/5 — Get app *2019-10-15* Able to listen and practice while driving ### 5/5 — Perfect app *2019-09-01* I’m learning a lot! Thanks! ### 5/5 — YAS Quebon *2019-07-17* This game taught me Norsk ### 5/5 — Bokmål or Nynorsk *2019-06-29* Is this is Bokmål or nynorsk ### 5/5 — This Norwegian language App is best ! *2019-05-05, version 5.8.0* I looked at several language apps. This one is the best. ### 5/5 — Best App Ever *2019-03-21, version 5.8.0* I am a fifteen year old high school student, and became interested in learning the Norwegian language. I’ve tried watching YouTube videos, google learning sites, but I didn’t really get a lot out of it. Its only been about a week since I started to use this app, but I’ve already learned a lot. ### 5/5 — FABOO! *2019-03-18* This app is fabbo! My favorite feature is how you can look up Norwegian words! Also if there is someone learning another language reading this comment, then I would like to tell you that you can learn other languages with this app series. Ok? Good! THIS APP IS FABBO! ### 5/5 — Fastest language acquisition tool ever! *2019-01-25* App settings allow you to control everything: how many words, how fast, record yourself, exclude what you have already perfected, practice vocabulary in context and much, much more! I love the gentle, encouraging reminders I receive every day via txt msg, at the time I chose! Plus many other brilliant features in NEMO! My Norwegian in-laws are impressed at how quickly I became able to hold simple conversations in social occasions and how I can get the gist of what they are talking about. I have only done about 40 hours of learning, so far. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Understand what you're getting FIRST *2021-06-21* There is nothing that annoys me quite as much as as product misrepresentation. So let's be clear about this "dictionary" (the search term I used when looking for this app). Unless you pay the full price of $12, what you'll be getting is a VERY brief, scarcely useful, phrase book that wouldn't even be useful for travel. (What good would something for travel be without the word "time"?) Please understand--I'm not saying we should get a full dictionary for free every time. I'm just saying, "Be very clear what you are offering." In addition (and this is not Nemo's fault, although a little extra guidance is always appreciated), I went to Apple's Keyboard Settings so that words I looked up would appear correctly when I saw them, but it offered (to my surprise) two different keyboards, so at this point I'm trying one of them to see if any of the words that come up in the app appear the same as they do on the screen when I watch my favorite Norwegian TV show on my computer or iPad. I have paid the $12 and downloaded "the full list," although at 1404 words, "full" would not meet some people's definition of the term, but I will leave it to each purchaser to determine worth. I'm just starting to learn Norwegian (although I speak English, Russian, and a few other languages, so that of course helps greatly) and so will no doubt acquire other materials to help me learn. Best of luck to all. ### 2/5 — Disappointed *2021-04-29, version 5.8.0* I was enjoying the app until I found out they only teach you a few basic phrases unless you pay to upgrade. I will be deleting the app. ### 2/5 — pouco interessante *2020-05-04* Poderia ser pouco mais aberto para melhor empolgação e resolvermos aderir ao curso completo ### 3/5 — Words *2023-06-27, version 5.8.0* You need to add more words ### 3/5 — Only downside to me *2019-04-11, version 5.8.0* Hello is actually Hei. Not Hallo, that’s German. (Sorry!) ### 3/5 — Nice app, but... *2016-05-19* It's a quality app, and is generally useful. But some of the translations are not perfect. "Thank you" really doesn't translate to "takk skal du ha," for example. "Takk" means thank you in a more general sense. "Takk skal du ha" is something you might say to a store employee that helps you find something. ### 4/5 — Norsk *2023-09-04, version 5.8.0* Norwegian, not enough words for Mens Room, Ladies Room, Menu and Norwegian Restaurant items.. ### 4/5 — Speed *2023-08-13, version 5.8.0* Needs to be slower ### 4/5 — Good app, limited vocabulary *2019-08-26* User friendly, like the play back options. Wish it had a larger vocabulary selection. For $12, some basic things like allergen concerns with food should be touched on. I am a celiac, so traveling is always scary for that reason. Gluten is not in the vocabulary. Seems like a very basic, international word. ### 4/5 — great app *2018-11-05, version 5.7.1* i speak norwegian thanks to this app pretty well. only bad part? having to pay for more ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy, Helpful *2026-04-17* I’m brushing up on my Norwegian, which I haven’t practiced in decades. It’s coming back with this quick and easy language tutorial app . ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2023-06-13* This helps me to communicate with my Norwegian family as we are mostly Norwegian but English is my prominent language. No more Google translate at family reunions thanks to this lovely app! It customizes itself to match my learning pace and I love it so much!!! ### 5/5 — Helt fantastisk! *2022-09-24* Extremely logically laid out, visually appealing, uncluttered and with a fantastically clear male pronouncer. One of the best apps that I have ever used, really. The free version is a great start and the full version is absolutely worth $12. Hours and hours of language instruction for the price of one inexpensive meal out. A total no-brainer. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-11-07, version 5.8.0* Great app, fun to use. ### 5/5 — Best Norsk learning app *2020-10-02, version 5.8.0* The most amazing part is the 2 side cards I appreciate that😍 ### 5/5 — Loving this *2020-08-03* I have zero luck with languages but am actually remembering this, love it👏🏻👏🏻 ### 5/5 — Very useful! *2020-04-09* I have used this app to learn about Norwegian and it has proven itself accurate I went to Norway recent and I could strike up a conversation with a few people (as long as they slowed down) ### 5/5 — Swidish *2020-04-08, version 5.8.0* I ### 5/5 — Perfect *2020-03-30, version 5.8.0* Veldig god takk Very good thanks ### 5/5 — Fácil *2020-03-06* A língua tem nuances, mas este aplicativo facilita. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
