Excerpt from Norwegian Grammar and Reader: With Notes and Vocabulary The selections in the Reader have been made on the basis of literary excellence and historical interest. The aim has been to make them of such a nature as to engage the heart as well as the head of the learner, that he may be led to peruse them as literature, and not merely as reading exercises. The first selections will be found to be comparatively easy; the last are of sufficient difficulty so that the student who has mastered them may feel that he is prepared to read any modern Norwegian or Danish author. After the beginner has gained some knowledge of the pronunciation and a gen eral familiarity with the principal grammatical forms, he should spend considerable time on some of the first selec tions - the second and fifth, for instance. These are easy and interesting, and contain constantly recurring words and phrases that are an encouragement in the first efforts at trans lation. The Notes are intended to give adequate explanations of the more difficult passages in the text, and the necessary liter ary and historical information for a due appreciation of the selections in the Reader. It is also hoped that they may incite the student to seek beyond the limits of this book for a further acquaintance with the authors represented.
