Arendalsk, Arendal dialect or Arendal Norwegian (Bokmål and Nynorsk: Arendalsk, Arendalsdialekten; the Arendal dialect: Ændalsk) is a dialect of Norwegian used in Arendal.
Phonology[edit]
- Intervocalic /p, t, k/ are realized as voiced [b, d, ɡ]. This feature appeared in this dialect in the 20th century.[2][3]
- A uvular [ʀ] realization of /r/ was established in Arendal before the 20th century.[2][3]
- /ʀ/ is frequently dropped, so that e.g. Lars becomes Læs.[3]
- The ending /əʀ/ is pronounced [ɔ] (as in Danish), so that the word for 'basement' is kjeller in Bokmål, but kjellå in the Arendal dialect.[2][3]
According to the linguist Gjert Kristoffersen, a recent change is that the postvocalic /ʀ/ is vocalized to [æ̯], rather than dropped. The phonetic diphthongs [ʉæ̯] and [uæ̯] may be monophthongized and lowered to, respectively, [œː] and [ɔː], so that the words for 'to do gymnastics' and 'thorn' (which phonemically are, respectively, /ˈtʉ̂ʀne/ and /ˈtûʀne/) vary in their phonetic realization between, respectively, [ˈtʉ̂æ̯nə] ~ [ˈtœ̂ːnə] and [ˈtûæ̯nə] ~ [ˈtɔ̂ːnə]. This process may be extended to mid vowels.[4]
Tonemes[edit]
Phonetic realization[edit]
Tonemes of the Arendal dialect are the same as those of the Oslo dialect; accent 1 is low-rising, whereas accent 2 is falling-rising.[5]
Notable speakers[edit]
- Gjert Kristoffersen[4]
- Rockebandet Ændal, a heavy metal band that sings in the Arendal dialect[6]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
