xu | English | Dictionary & Translation by Babylon

XU was a clandestine intelligence organisation working on behalf of Allied powers in occupied Norway during World War II. Though its work proved invaluable for operations against German operations in Norway, most of its operations, organization, etc, were kept secret until 1988.XU was established in July 1940 by Arvid Storsveen, and was originally based on recruiting students from the University of Oslo. As it grew, the group included professionals around Norway, within railroads, police and so on, and collected maps and photos of German fortifications and forces.XU initially cooperated with Milorg, but split from the rest of the rest of the Norwegian resistance movement in fall 1941 to protect the cover and identity of XU operatives.

ǃKung language

ǃKung or ǃʼOǃKung is a group of northern dialects of the Ju dialect continuum, which is generally classified as part of the Khoisan language family. ǃKung is spoken in northern Namibia and southern Angola by perhaps 15,000 Saan, though this number is uncertain due to the possibility of double counting populations that go by more than one name. It is primarily spoken by the ǃKung people.
