[@zapatashirts]

I'm into danish now for two years (i aftenskolen) and I drive very often in the car... this is exact the lesson I have looked for.. tusend tak skal du have!!!

[@kernowforester2349]

'Vil du have' in Danish is a close translation to 'Will thou have'' in English, it is still understood in English. Some basic sentences in Danish still make sense in English me thinks, especially in some dialects of English. Bearing in mind London English (RP) is based upon the east midlands dialect of east Anglia (going back to at least middle English), which was influenced by old Danish under Danelaw control before the Norman invasion.

[@elemenya5862]

Thank you, this is very helpful! I have a question. Why is it "Avisen ligger på spisebordET" but "skal vi lægge os på sofaEN"? Thanks!

[@liii3622]

I'm 2 years late, but it's because it's called "ET spisebord" (a dining table) and "EN sofa" (a sofa). Two different articles are used: EN and ET (a and an), so you just take the article (EN or ET) used in front of the word, and put it as the ending. Examples: ET hus (a house) = HusET EN stol (a chair) = StolEN ET sted (a place) = StedET EN sko (a shoe) = SkoEN

[@abcde_ghijklmnopqrstuvwyxz2188]

Adding to what liii said, nouns are indefinite when we use the articles "en/et" in front of the noun like "et hus" (a house) and definite when you put the articles behind the noun, so "et hus" (a house) => "huset" (the house). You could also use the articles "den/det" in front of the noun instead of "-en/-et" to mark it as definite. "Den/det" is equivalent to "that", like "det hus" (that house). We have two articles because we have two genders, neutral gender and common gender. To be honest, I don't remember which article is which gender and it doesn't really matter. Just learn the noun with the article.

[@jevoudraisphoque997]

Many Danish words are half way between English and German, probably because Anglo-Saxon homeland was located in Jutland and Niedersachsen.

[@Ahlasamor]

Tak👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@peepo2560]

I was surprised you didn't use "saft" for juice. Is it regional?

[@Danishmastery]

"Saft" is the basic word for the juice coming directly from the fruit. In Danish we say "Juice" about the soft drink that you buy in the supermarket and also call "Juice" in English. "Saft" or "Saftevand" is used about the soft drink where we mix water with a strong concentrate, though some are already mix when you buy them, and don't require water. These are less thick/dense and more diluted than "juice", so you can tell them apart. It can sound a little complicated, but that's essentially what it is.

Hi, I hava a question for the example of the word Ris, why is it "vi ER løbet tør FOR ris" instead of "vi HAR løbet tør AF ris"?

[@Danishmastery]

It's just the way we say it. Why is it "run out of rice" instead of "run out for rice" in English?

[@emc7081]

@@Danishmastery Thanks for the reply but I thought "af" means "of". It's just when using danish in present perfect tense, it's difficult to differentiate when to use "er" or "har".

[@Danishmastery]

Emma Cui there’s not a strict rule about when it’s “er” or “har”, but often times it’s that “har” is more active than “er”

[@anthonyehrenzweig1635]

The trouble is these phrases are pronounced differently when spoken at normal conversational speed. Whole syllables (& words) are lost & "V" is sometimes pronounced "V" & sometimes "W" depending on whether he speaks slowly or fast. Spoken Danish is a complete minefield. Interestingly Danish is the only language that pronounces the letter"A" as "ay" like English - but then it is also pronounced like "eh" & "ah". No wonder other Scandinavians cant understand Danish?

[@Danishmastery]

They are pronounced differently to show the official slow pronunciation, which is useful when you're first getting to know a word or phrase, and then have it compared to the way it's normally pronounced in real life. Both versions are important. There are several challenges associated with learning Danish pronunciation, but so is there with many other languages. If one has the mindset of wanting to do as little as possible and skip to the end goal of becoming fluent in Danish, then yes, it feels like an unfair amount of work. However, if one actually makes the decision to enjoy the process, it won't feel like a chore or a tiring job. One thing is for sure; complaining about how hard it is to learn won't do any good.

[@anthonyehrenzweig1635]

@@Danishmastery I like complaining about Danish. It's the only language where the written word bears no relation to to the spoken. At least in French there are some rules. Anyway what you said should have been explained in the video. Danish is difficult enough as it is.

[@imerterrag6304]

@@anthonyehrenzweig1635 Sorry but do you think English pronunciation is easy for non English speaking learners ? As a French speaker I can assure you English pronunciation (in relation to written language) is just as difficult as Danish !

[@anthonyehrenzweig1635]

@@imerterrag6304 I don't agree. I have counted 6 separate words in your reply where the pronunciation rules do not follow spelling. However there are 34 words in your reply & the variations only relate to the vowels. In Danish whole syllables disappear. I would say half of what is written in Danish is not pronounced.
