Why learn Norwegian

Norwegian is the official language of Norway and is mutually intelligible with Swedish and Danish, making it a gateway to all three Scandinavian languages. Norway has strong development and business ties with East Africa, and Scandinavian tourists are a regular presence on the Kenyan coast.

Norwegian is valuable for:

  • Personal or family connections to Norway or Scandinavia
  • Business with Norwegian companies or organisations
  • Study or work opportunities in Norway
  • Tourism roles serving Scandinavian guests
