    On the other hand, I often find the english language interesting, how you can turn almost anything into a verb, and people just go with it.

    Very funny. Never thought about it. But it is kind of true putting 2 words together and there is a new word in Danish. Hovedbanegård. For train station politigården police station.

    Politigården would be police farm, but as we also have politistationen, then yes that is the police station. Hovedbanegård would be head track farm,,,, and as a old DSB person i can say that there are absolutely nothing in or on a head going on when it come to trains in Denmark.

    Wordbook exist in English, but it's from another perspective: Anglish... And by extension a way to simplemake (simplify), modernise, and gatherise ( unify) Newglish/Anglish... By the way, overmorgen has its sameword in English: overmorning, just like overnight... The problem of English tongue is that it has far too many words from Old French (Normand version...) that are as well far too many weird and unlogical .For exemple : example: exemplus, language: langage, from langue, that should be lengue, because: lingua .Ling, linguage then or speakth?
