Very helpful crash course!

I've studied with several other Pimsleur language programs. This one struck me as a bit slow, but perhaps that's because there's some crossover with German. Ultimately, I didn't use the Norwegian I learned that much when I went to Norway as the Norwegians were by and large fluent in English! It was nice to know some basic courteous phrases and be able to communicate at a survival level on those rare occasions when I encountered a non-English speaker, however.
