As today is World Poetry Day, maybe you want to talk to someone about poetry, or a book that you recently read? Here are some new words to practice before this conversation: 

ENGLISH / NORWEGIAN 

Poetry - Lyrikk

Poem - Dikt

Book - Bok

Novel - Roman

Short stories - Noveller 

Be aware of the latter two - These are easy to mix up, as the word for novel in English is similar to the word for short story in Norwegian. 

I hope this was useful! 

Best, 

Hannah, OLS Community Manager - Norwegian
