Please join us for our monthly Lakselaget DC Luncheon on April 7th! RSVP by April 4th! Our speaker Ms Inger Dreng will be providing a presentation on "Studying Norwegian in the US for Fun and Profit." Drawing on her experience as a language instructor in the Washington DC area since 2004, Ms. Dreng will address why people elect to study Norwegian. In addition, Ms. Dreng will provide an overview of how and where people may study Norwegian in the US and DC area. Since many of our members have studied Norwegian and/or feel passionate about the language, there will also be a discussion of our own experiences with the Norwegian language.
