There are three official languages in Norway: Bokmål and Nynorsk, which are very similar and most widely spoken, and Sami, spoken by the Sami ethnic minority people in the far north. Bokmål, also often called Norwegian, is spoken by the majority of the population, especially in the cities, and is the main language used in education and the media.
English is widely spoken in Norway, especially by younger people. However, it is almost essential to be able to speak Norwegian if you are going to live and work in Norway.
