Norwegian, English and my German is pretty okay (I have it in school and have I some friends from Germany) :) We start learning English pretty early here - at least I think? (first year of school aka when we're six). And I read it at least as much as my native language. So reading doesn't feel so different anymore, but reading German is completely something else for me - in a very positive way. Learning it is quite hard for a Norwegian (that, grammatically, is a very easy language). Oh, and I guess it's worth mentioning that we have two written languages: bokmål and nynorsk. Bokmål is the most common one and is basically derived from Danish. It's because of our old union with Denmark. Nynorsk is the result of one man's travels around Norway, collecting all the dialects into one language.
