Norwegian is a North Germanic language and stems from Old Norse. There are two official forms of written Norwegian-bokmål (book language) and nynorsk (new Norwegian). There is no officially sanctioned standard of spoken Norwegian, and most Norwegians speak their own dialect. From the 1900s onwards, bokmål, which was commonly used by the professional classes and in literature at this time underwent reforms which has bough it closer to the popular form of Norwegian used today.

Viking traders spread the language across Europe and into Russia, making Old Norse one of the most widespread languages for a time. Around 1030, Christianity came to Norway, bringing with it the Latin alphabet. Norwegian manuscripts in the new alphabet began to appear about a century later. It was at this time that the Norwegian language began to deviate from its neighbours.
