    As another commenter said you also have faroe, sami and a lot of languages in greenland. The two norwegians dont really count as two different languages. Calssifying north germanic languages can be a bit hard because its a language continuum.

      Two Norwegians are actually like 14 different languages. I had a girlfriend from Trondheim, i had learned “nynorsk” while living in Sognogfjordane and had a much easier time understanding people in Aarhus where we lived vs her dialect.
