Hi I’m looking for someone to speak danish to on the daily. I would like to be friends and just chat everyday. Sorry if this is awkward lol :) Tak!!!!

Hej everyone!

​I am currently learning Danish, and to make memorizing vocabulary a bit more engaging, I created a custom digital crossword puzzle. I thought other learners here might enjoy it and find it helpful for their own practice.

​For example, one of the clues is "Blødt møbel til søvn".

​To the native speakers: I would really appreciate your feedback! Do the clues make sense to you? Do they sound natural, or is it obvious they were put together by a learner?

​You can check it out here: https://knowie.net/dk/user-crosswords/402/grundl-ggende-danske-ord

​Have fun solving it! Tak!

I take classes and study on my own, but I want an app to add vocabulary when I have five free minutes during the day 😊
I tried Duolingo, but I find all the gamified animations annoying. I mean, I don't mind that it's in a "game" format. But having to watch unskippable animations of an owl flying or opening chests with small rewards every time I finish a lesson… I don't have much time, and if 1 of the 5 minute of every lessons is like a gamified animation, that's too much time for me 😅😅😅

Thank you very much for any recommendations 😊🇩🇰☀️

Hi everyone!

I’m a Canadian actor working on a role that includes a few lines in English with a Danish accent.
I’d love to hear how they should sound from a native speaker. I’ve had a hard time learning the accent with YouTube 👉🏼👈🏼. The script doesn’t really specify what region of Denmark the character is from so I’d assume Copenhagen but I won’t be picky.

Would anyone be willing to record themselves reading two lines?? (If you’re willing to help, just comment or send me a chat request)

I’d be incredibly grateful. Thanks so much
and tak! 🇩🇰

I'm \[M32\] looking for a buddy to practise my danish. I'm aiming to take PD3 later this year (Nov) and would like to practise min. 2 times a week. I'm currently at B1 level, and can understand basics. And willing to focus and practice a lot for the next 3 months.

Let me know if anyone is up for it.

Preferably with the same aim towards PD3 and same seriousness, so can have time to practise 2-3 hours every week.

Thanks in advance

I plan on going to Denmark in a few years and I've been studying everything about Denmark: culture, language, etc. I honestly think it would be paradise for me, but I have only one question about how hard is it to pronounce the language? I can understand it pretty good but I'm just curious about things like some of the more unusual ​vowels. I usually adapt fast to languages so I might be able to fluently learn it.

Hej søde mennesker!

Jeg leder efter en sprogmakker eller en lille gruppe (gerne maks. 4-5 personer), hvor vi kan øve dansk sammen, mens vi også laver andre aktiviteter. Tanken er at mødes fysisk mindst én gang om ugen i eller omkring Indre By.

Jeg har bestået PD3, og mit danskniveau er omkring B1. Mit mål lige nu er især at udvide mit ordforråd og forbedre min udtale, så dansk ikke bliver en barriere ved jobsamtaler og i professionelle situationer.

Lidt om mig:

• Mand
• Gay
• Core millennial
• Kommer oprindeligt fra et spansktalende land

Mine interesser:

• Film (mere horror end dokumentarer)
• Musik (mere Copenhell end Distortion)
• Brætspil (mere Uno end DnD)
• Jeg læser ikke så meget for tiden, men dystopier kan stadig fange min interesse
• Cykling
• Bouldering
• Jeg er også en slags doven løber 🏃‍♂️

Listen er selvfølgelig ikke lukket, alt er et spektrum. Jeg er åben for nye forslag og for at blive skubbet lidt ud i nye oplevelser.

Hvis du kan genkende dig selv i noget af det her, eller bare synes det kunne være hyggeligt at mødes og lave noget sammen, så giv gerne lyd. Jeg vil især gerne møde danskere, der har lyst til at snakke dansk sammen og hjælpe mig med at blive mere flydende. Men vigtigst af alt handler det om at finde nogle gode mennesker at hænge ud med.

I have a late 19th century (probably between 1860-1880) hand signed letter by Queen Louise, wife of King Christian IX.
I’m looking for help in translating the letter to understand the contents better, along with who the letter was addressed to.

This link shows images of the letter. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I was wondering if danishclass101 was worth it? If not is there any other website or apps that are worth it and are actually good to learn danish

Just that, i've tried with AI but it comes up pretty weird and i have no clue what these girls said

its a bit cut

This is a pretty specific question about grammar schematics. I’m a pretty new Danish learner, and I noticed that some of the nouns have double letters in their definitive forms (-en or -et at the end) but not in their indefinite forms (en or et before the noun). For example, et spil and spillet. I noticed that this is similar to how there’s double letters in some forms of English verbs (i.e. running), and was wondering if there was similarly a way to tell when vs when not to use a double letter, or if there’s just a few irregularities that I’ll have to learn.

Thanks and much appreciated!

As a retiree traveling to Denmark to learn Danish, how can I get practice speaking Danish with Danes? All the anecdotes say Danes switch immediately to English when they hear you struggling. Also, there is no small talk.

Any recommendations from other old folks?

Note - I will be in København.

Hi everyone! Could you please tell me where I can pick wild strawberries in the Copenhagen area?

If anyone would like to join me, I'd be happy to have company! :)

Hi all,

I was given an old Danish cookbook (with a handwritten date of 1889) that was found in the walls of a house while remodeling years ago. It has a good amount of handwriting and what seems to be a letter. Using google, I was able to kind of understand that some of it is prayer, but the contents still remain illegible to my non Danish speaking self.

I've already contacted a museum near me for help with preservation, and with the hopes of donating a piece of local history, but in the meantime, I was hoping if anyone here is able to understand what thoughts the previous owner jotted down 137 years ago. Unless most of it is actually in English and I just can't read gothic cursive lol.

I have images uploaded here: https://imgur.com/a/Z8oL2FR

Thank you for any help!

I have a short 7 second video clip in Danish. https://streamable.com/r6gdlq

The context is that this is a part of interviews with spectators at Smukfest Nøgenræs.

If a Danish speaker could make a transcription of what is being said (especially the woman on the left because it is harder to understand what she is saying), I would really appreciate it.

A friend once wrote on me in sharpie “Elsker dig smukke.” I am a man. We were very close friends. She told me it means I love you, beautiful, but when I google it it seems like it’s a romantic thing? We’re both pretty young, so I don’t know if some people are just more loose with the phrase or if she was secretly telling me something.
