The Duck stories are translated to standard written Norwegian. It goes back to
the first Disney comics published in Norway. The stories has to be suitable
to children and the editors made a school teacher translate the comics.
The comercials went "...The text is translated and edited by Mrs. Helene 
Kloevstad,
teacher at Oslo public schools."
