change the language of natbib..?

Post by larsners »

Hi!

I am writing a norwegian paper, and I have a problem when there are only two authors on a paper. The command \citet{...} gives me:

Treguer and Jacques (1992)

Where I want the norwegian word for "and" instead of the english. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I couldn't find it in the natbib documentation.
Thanks.

- Lars

I've had the same issue, but with Swedish.

Installing the CTAN package swebib and then using \bibliographystyle{sweplnat} solved the problem for me. (If you are using Ubuntu, installing the package texlive-lang-norwegian should do it for you.)

Thanks for the reply, but I am actually sitting in Windows (using TeXnicCenter), so I don't know how I can implement your solution on my system. Any ideas?

Have a look at http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Ca ... orbib.html. That package gives you a few Norwegian bibtex styles that you can use.

Unfortunately, I don't see any style in there that is obviously compatible with natbib, as sweplnat is, but at least you'll get "ordinary" Norwegian bibtex styles.

Thank you :) That should probably do the trick!
