Norwegian pronunciation course​

Welcome to NorFon: an online course designed to guide you through Norwegian pronunciation, sound by sound, word by word, and phrase by phrase.

Price: 24 EUR per month

What does the course look like?

Whatever your pronunciation challenge may be, NorFon helps you work through it step by step: from individual sounds, through stress and rhythm, to natural phrases and complete texts. With each module, you move closer to clear and confident Norwegian speech.

Course structure

The course is divided into modules, each designed as a complete learning block, guiding you step by step from individual sounds to words, rhythm, and ultimately natural speech in phrases and texts.
You may follow the modules in sequence for a structured learning experience, or select any module according to your needs.
Each module consists of three sections, allowing you to focus on a particular aspect of pronunciation:

Section 1. Sounds and sound combinations
Focus on the foundations of pronunciation: vowels, consonants, long and short sounds, and sound combinations, as well as the relationship between spelling and pronunciation.

Section 2. Rhythm and pitch accent
Explore the musicality of Norwegian: word stress, pitch accent, rhythm, and how sounds interact in connected speech.

Section 3. Phrases and texts
Develop natural speech: intonation, sentence stress, phrases, texts, and fluency through practices such as shadowing and repetition.

You may work through all the sections in sequence, or focus on the one that best suits your needs.
Each theme includes one or more tasks, designed to provide focused, practical training in real skills such as listening comprehension, pronunciation, and the ability to perceive rhythm, pitch accent, and sentence stress.

Is this course for me?

You might be just starting to learn Norwegian and want to sound right. Or maybe you already know the grammar, have a good vocabulary, and even speak or work in Norwegian, but still notice that:

  • people ask you to repeat;
  • your speech sounds unclear or unnatural
  • you find it hard to catch certain details when listening

If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Many learners reach a point where pronunciation becomes the main barrier — even when everything else seems to be in place.

The good news is: this can be trained. That’s exactly what

NorFon

is designed to help you with.

You don’t need perfect understanding to begin. You improve through listening, repeating, and training your ear and speech step by step. Because good pronunciation is not about how much you understand, but how actively you practice.

If the theory feels challenging, you are still fully supported. Each lesson includes a clear written summary and a vocabulary list, so you can easily follow along and focus on practice.

You might be closer to clear, natural speech than you think.

“I like NorFon a lot. Everything is very detailed, with good illustrations, and it is interesting to use it for learning. It helps a lot that I can focus on the differences between my native language and Norwegian so that I can understand more easily what I have to improve in my pronunciation. Very useful!”

Ønsker dere å organisere et kurs i norsk uttale?

Ferdig læreropplegg til uttalekurs

Vi har et ferdig opplegg som består av presentasjoner for 16-20 skoletimer med flere hundre lysark. Lærerveiledning med mange forslag til aktiviteter i klasserommet til hver undervisningsbolk og tips om uttaleundervisning følger også med. Materialet fra opplegget kan med stort hell også inkluderes i generell norskundervisning. Dersom det er ønskelig, kan vi også arrangere kurs i uttaleundervisning.
Tilgang til opplegget koster 6000 kroner i året per lærer (ved flere enn 10 lærere er det lavere pris), og det kan brukes i kombinasjon med elevressursen NorFon til lekser.
Læreropplegget har allerede vært i bruk ved voksenopplæringa i Oslo kommune i to år. 

Se gjerne denne videoen om læreres erfaring med bruk av metoden.
