Amount of Norwegians who write in dialect instead of standard Norwegian in casual contexts
“It’s a whole bunch of craziness. Norwegian has two official standardised dialects, one of which is a West Scandinavian dialect (Nynorsk) and the other an East Scandinavian dialect (Bokmål). Basically, they are from separate linguistic branches, but lumped together under a national “Norwegian” umbrella term. Then, there are two more standardised non-official dialects, Riksmål (precursor to, but still contemporary of Bokmål) and Høgnorsk, which is basically Nynorsk that rejected a bunch of reforms”–Faelchu
