    Danes aren't that easy to get to talk however. We are kind of introvert and shy, unless you get us drunk. We see ourselves as very openminded and kind, but in reality we just don't care about what is going on next door. Which is also a good quality, I think. We mind our own business. We aren't bad people, we just are not quite as special as these guys make us out to be :D

This is also coming from someone who's learning Danish, for me the soft consonants take some getting used to but once you've got the flow down you've got that pretty well set. For me the harder part is their alternative to tonality.

    Trues. A very Danish thing is to just repeat the clichées (kind of just taking things for granted i.e. being content/happy). A few of them really tried to dig into what is Danish, like the guy mentioning the seasons - being a seafaring nation is very Danish. Relating to Scandinavia. Bicycles. Getting together for (hot) drinks and cake. Getting drunk on most social occations is unfortunately also the reality of many Danes. As for companies there is also Maersk (shipping), Danfoss, B&O, Carlsberg (and Tuborg), Vestas (windmills), ISS (cleaning, catering etc.) but true … LEGO is the one they should have remembered :)

The adults can’t raise their children properly (idk how to spell that) Almost every men had tried drinking. I’d been bullied in a racist way. They don’t just go up to you saying: “Ewww you aren’t Danish ya jerk!” But they show the words by acting and pushing you for YEARS!!!! They critizes your every mistake. And we started out being 24 in our class. Due to cyper bullying we’re now 14 classmates ;-; That is how most schools is. Also Denmark is super boring. Nothing to explore.

    Norsguy Odin actually, the language itself is way easier than German. There's no conjugation and masculine, feminine, and neutral words and the order of the words are very similar to English, Swedish, Norwegian and Icelandic. Simple sentences: The dog = hunden ("hund" means dog and "-en" means the) The Girl loves the dog = Pigen elsker hunden. I want/want to have = jeg vil gerne/jeg vil gerne ha (jeg = I, vil = would, gerne = like, ha = have). Jeg vil gerne ha en te = I want a tea/ I would like a tea/ I would like to have a tea.

But the pronunciation, dear heaven 😆. Of all the languages I've learned, this is the easiest for me, only I might never be able to really speak... I don't understand much yet, but I'm glad that Easy Danish exists, thank you! PS The most typical Danish thing for me as a tourist is rød pølse. Loved it as a kid!!

    To me, I can see how close English and Danish are. If you look at Old English, it is very similar to modern Danish. Even an English person's accent is similar in my opinion to a Danish person's. They even did a study on the DNA of English people and found they were most closely related to Danes, which makes sense because the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes were from where Denmark is today.

    The soft "d" is every native English speaker's nightmare, truly. It's funny though, when I went to visit the place where my girlfriend is from (Odense), I tried to speak with what little Danish I knew. Most of the Danes would just give me a perplexed look and say back to me in English something like "Just speak English, it will be easier for the both of us!". Everyone seemed to speak near-perfect English, so sometimes practising wouldn't be too easy, unless it was with my girlfriend. With that said, Denmark is such a lovely little Country and I would love to settle down there some day. I've had enough of Canada and I much prefer the honesty and straightforwardness of the Danish people. People in Denmark don't sugar-coat things or have overly high expectations. That means if that you adopt such a mindset, you'll be less likely to be let down or disappointed, but more importantly, you'll be pleasantly surprised when your already reasonable expectations are met. That's why many Danes seem quite happy and content with things. Above all else, the people there aren't fake or passive aggressive, which is what I absolutely hate about many of my fellow Canadians.
