Norwegian transcription writes the result in Bokmål, the more widely used of Norway's two written standards. Norwegian is one of the most accurate languages on the site. Dialects vary a lot across the country, and broad ones are harder than the Norwegian heard on the news.

Questions

Does it translate Norwegian into English?

Yes, on translate audio to English. This page keeps the text in Norwegian.
