German reacts to Kamelåså - Nobody understands the Danish
On my channel I make Sweden Reation Videos, some people also call them Reaction to Sweden Videos or Swedish Reaction Videos. I cover especially Sweden Music Reaction Videos and Swedish Music Reaction Videos as well as Sweden Comedy Reaction Videos. I just love Swedish Comedy Reaction Videos. My favourite Sweden Comedy Reaction Videos are Robert Gustafsson Reaction Videos as well as Björn Gustafsson Reaction Videos. I also like Henrik Dorsin Reaction Videos and Grotesco Reaction Videos. A really warm place in my heart has the Nazisterna Reaction and the Parlamentet Reaction.

Danish numbers (I may be wrong - so correct me): 0 to 50 uses the same as you say in german. "48 " = "eight-and-forty". This is also used in Norwegian. Above 50 up to 100 it gets a bit complicated. Base is 20: 60 = tres (3x 20) 80 = fjers (4x 20) 100 = fems (5x 20) This is then combines with the above: "64" = "fire-og tres" But what about, 50, 70 and 90? Yea... they then subtract "half 20". 50 = halv-tres (3x 20 - 20/2) 70 = halv-fjers (4x20 - 20/2) 90 = halv-fems (5x20 - 20/2) Thus 98 becomes: "eight and halv-fems". Nobody knows how to do numbers above 100 in Danish so the Danes avoid those entirely 😄

[@jesperlykkeberg7438]

50 = halvtreds = halvtredsindstyvende = halvt (sig) hen ad (sig) den tredje tyvende. "half through the third pair of tenths" (twenty = twin of tenths) 51 = enoghalvtreds = enoghalvtredsindstyvende = halvt (sig) henad (sig) den tredje tyvende, og en. "half through the third pair of tenths, and one". The Danish number compounds were abbreviated and inverted in prehistoric times. "-s-" marks the reflexive element "sig" (same as German "sich") and are commonly used to bind word elements together. "-n-" marks the relative element "hen" (same as German "hin") and was a common ancient germanic suffix, such as in the word "forbuden/verboten/forbidden". "-d-" marks the relative element "ad" meaning "along" or "towards", and was a common suffix in old germanic languages. "-sinds-" = (sig) hen ad (sig) = along/through/towards. The only odd one out is 40 "fyrre", allegedly from "fyrretyvende", although this cannot be true, of course.

[@angaudlinn]

Yes, the danes count in twenties, not too far from the french system. But then they mess it upp by halfing the last twenty to reach the tenth number below. So for example 78 is 20 times 4 halfed plus 8. As a scanian swede I have no problem with it, but I have spent my fair number of days in Copenhagen and did in fact bother to learn it (unlike many swedes). And yes, the rumour is true. Danish kids learn their mother tongue among the last in the world, since there are so many vowels and "gutteral" sounds. I love it! :D

[@frankkrunk]

I'd say it's like German until you get to 40, then it gets worse then French. 60 is "Tres", which means like "triple 20". So of course 50 is "halvtreds", as it's halfway between 40 and the next multiple of 20. 80 is "firs" (four 20's), so 70 is "halvfjerds". It would be a lot easier to understand if was the SAME word, like "halvfirs". But it's not. Hundred is "hundrede" but it COULD be "fems", which it isn't. So 90 is "halvfems", because it's halfway between 80 and "fems" which does not exist.

[@Draktand01]

@@andreasfischer9158 Yup. It’s honestly pretty funny how we ended up brothers after our politicians stopped getting us to murder each other. Although, that’s probably because politics were the only thing seperating us back then. We are basically just one people anyways, split geographically to the point of linguistic divergence. Honestly, if German linguistic ”unification” was possible (as in the fact that German is considered a single language today), a simular effort here in Scandinavia (given that we’d want to do such a thing, of course) would probably have a similar result. The saying that a language is just a dialect with an army, applies very much here in Scandinavia. The Swedish language itself officially has some ”dialects” that are considered seperate languages by linguists. Most famous among them being Älvdalska (Elfdalian). Basically, as brothers, it is our duty to rib each other endlessly.

I am Swedish and have been many times in Denmark. When the Danish people hear me speak, they speak more slowly and articulate consonants clearly. The Danish language is Old Norse. It is the Danish language that changed the English language for 300 years because of vikings. There is nothing in the Danish language that resembles the German language. The Danish language is well-preserved Old Norse and can understood to a large extent by people from Norway and Sweden.

[@mieszko1985]

Danish is the least Old Norse of the Scandinavian languages today. Its hard to know exactly what area influenced what words in todays English, but it might just have been vikings from Norway. There is a reason one of the biggest battles in the viking age was with Norwegian kings against the English, its not by chance. The Danish language actually sounds more similar to German today, and most likely did not a 1000 years ago. My point is that the guttural sounds that the Danes have today didnt exist during Norse times. This is an unfortunate devolopment perhaps from France and the Paris region that spread north even to Western and Southern parts of Norway. If Danish kept the norse rolling "R" sound like most of the people in the world use, and didnt get so influenced by their German neighbors, they wouldnt get this guttural problem today where other Scandinavians are struggling to hear clearly what you are saying because according to your own alphabet you once agreed upon - like the french - you are butchering words when you speak compared to how you write.

[@swedishmetalbear]

Danish has gone through some changes linguistically speaking.. That has made it different from other Norse languages.. And it has happened in the last few hundred years or so. First.. All the consonants are almost not pronounced anymore.. Especially after the initial consonant. And these consonants are replaced with different vowel sounds. This makes it sound like they have something in their mouths preventing their tongues from pronouncing the words properly.. Or as if they have been to the dentist and had lots of painkiller injected in their mouths. Danish also used to. Like Norwegian.. But in particularily Swedish.. Have a pitch accent. Whereas Norwegian and Swedish still have pitch accent.. Danish has replaced the pitch accent with something called "Stöd"... Meaning (thrust or blow)... They use their diaphragms to make a sound that is unique to Danish. To us it is a sound that kind of happens when you are speaking and suddenly feel the urge to vomit. Here is a scientific and linguistic explanation to the Danish language. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3qYdYOqaKyYldUsi=gfh3tE-Ccbk3KH_9

[@fredriks5090]

It's all the pork. Bacon, ham, flæsk, gelatin, candies... The Danes are clogging their ear canals with their diet. Maybe this is the secret to why the semites are afraid of pork. Also, the tower of Babel.

[@fredriks5090]

also, maybe the reason why the chinese are so heavily tonal (they are late-stage stød sufferers from thousands of years of pork belly)

[@omega1231]

There are still dialects of Danish with pitch accent, that is those without glottal stops or "stød". Also, glottal stops are completely cracked in the København/Nordsjælland dialect, which is part of the reason why the language sounds like that to you guys, because your ears are not trained to hear it basically so you just hear it as garbled mumbo jumbo, which is funny.

[@swedishmetalbear]

@@omega1231 I am used to hearing it.. Some dialects sound more constipated than others... Definitely so. Are you talking Bornholm dialect? It is closer to Swedish than Skåne dialect was before Skåne became Swedish...

[@NerdyCompetence]

This is a well-known classic sketch. So funny... Yes, they talk gibberish in this. They all play a caricature and speak deliberately with a high voice pitch. This is very common in Norwegian and Danish comedy parodies. The three Scandinavian countries like to make fun of each other. All the Nordics in general. Especially about language differences. But it's in a loving way and like making fun of your family. In the end, we stick together and we care about each other. I'm from Denmark. Linguistically, our language is very different in pronunciation compared to Swedish and Norwegian. That's why they usually can't understand us. - But the three languages are very close in the written form. So basically, if you can read one of the languages, you can also read all three. And finally about the Danish numbers... In Swedish and Norwegian they say the high number first and then the small number. For example the number 62; they say 60 and 2... But in Danish we say 2 and 60 (62). Just like in German.

[@dane_with_swag]

Generally, danish numbers are counted the same as in Germany. For example 21 is enogtyve (en= ein og= und tyve= zwanzig) however, after 49, danish goes haywire. 50 is halvtres, which is the same as saying halv-tre-sins-tyve (the last part "tyve" is usually left out if you don't talk in a very oddly formal way). translated to english, it would be 3½ multiplied by 20. It's a remnant of an old counting system, and if I remember correctly, it was for counting bundles of fish.

[@Telruin]

Danish uses a sort of base 20 system instead of base 10... A soft base 20 perhaps... 50 and 70 is called "half 60" and "half 80". I'm Norwegian. I can't recall if they say 30, or if that one also is half...

[@Bedsize]

in Denmark we say the numbers like you do in Germany (1 and 50) but our "tens" is not like yours - your 10's are 2-tens, 3-tens etc up til 9-tens - ours are in scores (Dutzend) so our 60 is 3-scores - our 70 is half 4 scores (saying half in front means take a half away - half past 4 would in Danish be half 5) so yeah - the number system is just as weird as Germans, and then some xD And yes, I have seen this before, and yes Kamelåså would make sense to me, in Danish we use this phrase "Goddag mand økseskaft" mostly (hello man ax handle/Hallo Mann, Axtgriff) which is something one would say in situations like in this video - where people talk, but no one knows what is said (or if you listen in, and you know they have the wrong ideer, 1 thinks they agreed on something and the other on something else =D

Kind regards the Danish Viking

The high pitched voice is just for added humour.

[@thegrimyeaper]

No, this is sped up. I saw the original on TV and have watched this sketch here in Norway for years. It does not sound like chipmunks like it does here.

[@johankaewberg8162]

They are exaggerating hugely, but yes.

im danish. and i don't understand it. i think it's a sketch, no body in the nordic regien knows. just like the sweedish cook in the muppet show

[@knibtang]

If you want to make fun of danish. at least try to imitate it. That was lusy humour.

[@SteamboatW]

No, everyone just trashes Sweden and Swedes.. The only thing others make fun of when it comes to Danes, it's the language. We use to say that the Danes talked the same as all the others until the Danes discovered the potato. ... and the Danish language is particular in the Nordics since it has sounds that are unique in the world.

[@minidaknezz3647]
