There are also dialects used in the cities, but ''Bokmål'' (Book language) or ''Riksmål'' (Language of the realm) is a written Norwegianised variety of Danish<ref>Wikipedia. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_language Norwegian language]. Accessed 25 October 2023.</ref> which is used in all of the cities, and ''Nynorsk'' (New Norwegian) is the written language<ref>Wikipedia. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nynorsk Nynorsk]. Accessed 25 October 2023.</ref> used in all the rural areas of Norway. In this dialect dictionary you will notice that at times a word in Dialect, Bokmål and Nynorsk is similar, but at other times the word is totally different.
