The council, which wrote in its report Norway is under "continual pressure from English in many areas of society," said the respondents said all advertising and marketing materials should be in the Norwegian language, the Norwegian News Agency/The Local.ne reported Friday.

However, the report said Nynorsk is used more online, with its version of Wikipedia growing at twice the rate of the older language.
