It's time for the Norwegian vs Danish vs Swedish vs Icelandic language challenge! They have never learned Norwegian but can they understand it based purely on the mutual intelligibility phenomenon? Are those Germanic languages similar enough to hold a conversation? The participants use only their native languages in an attempt to communicate across language boundaries. Let us know what you think? :)
