Typisk norsk

[1] Typisk norsk won the Gullruten Award in 2005 for Best Culture or Magazine Program and Best Male Host.

[3] Typisk norsk has covered, among other things: In 2005, Typisk norsk's Petter Schjerven presented the new letter kjell on the program, a letter to prevent the kj sound from being replaced by sj and disappearing from the language.

The voiceless palatal fricative ([ç]) is unstable in many Norwegian dialects and is disappearing from the speech of young people; younger speakers in Bergen, Stavanger and Oslo even merge /ç/ into the voiceless retroflex sibilant /ʂ/.

[4] The proposal for the new letter was created by design agency SDG and presented by Petter Schjerven in the television program Typisk norsk.

A similar glyph had been used before for /ç/ in the Norwegian phonetic transcription Norvegia, which has roots dating back to 1884.
