    Does rare convey a negative meaning?

    It could, but doesn't have to.

        I presume you might be Spanish, because of Raro's negative sense.

          Does "unusual" not work as a translation for "rare"?

          'unusual' = 'uvanlig'

          I first translated "menneskene" as "peoples", which would make sense in English ("these peoples" = "these nations", or "these tribes"). Does this also work in Norwegian?
