Norway's Constitution Day transforms the entire country into a sea of red, white, and blue flags, joyous celebrations, and the rhythmic march of children's parades. Through this unique listening comprehension episode, you'll get to know  "Syttende Mai" (May 17th) while strengthening your Norwegian language skills through carefully crafted repetition and translation.

What makes this episode particularly valuable is its three-part structure. First, you'll hear each Norwegian sentence followed by its English translation and then repeated in Norwegian. Next, the entire text is presented in standard Eastern Norwegian without translations to test your comprehension. Finally, you'll experience the same content in Bergen dialect (Bergensk), exposing you to regional pronunciation differences in an accessible way. The episode concludes with vocabulary practice focusing on some key terms.

Whether you're preparing for your first Syttende Mai celebration or looking to deepen your Norwegian language skills, this immersive listening experience offers both practical vocabulary and cultural understanding. Listen multiple times, challenge yourself to understand more with each repetition, and soon you'll be ready to join in with a hearty "Gratulerer med dagen!" when the big day arrives.
