| DANISH RESURGENCE - Op til nu, det her dansk forum er tom. So far, this Danish forum has just been a valley of lost souls:(. I hope we can civilize this barron moor. Though I'm not a Dane, nor even an accomplished speaker, I intend on being a foot-soldier in "The Danish Resurgence", and getting this forum to some semblance of the Danish glory of old. I've encountered many obstacles so far. Mother nature is currently throwing up torrential weather into our path (ie. Phrasebase's system is struggling). My first launch (almost two hours' worth of work on a thread) was rejected and pummeled. Then in launching a second raid, I was unable to penetrate the barricades for days on end (ie. clicking on "DANISH" yielded no success at getting into the forum in the first place). And, even the morale boosting coat of arms "The Danish Resurgence" was banished (the title was mysteriously erased from this post) when penetration was finally accomplished. But, this army still persists. The Swedish Empire is at its peak, lead by the foriegn royalty in Queen Teknogeek, and the mighty Swedes in Princess Jadokesa and Prince Hoogard. And they have many henchmen, of whom I am one. Can we extend the empire? The Finns, though of a different stock (linguistically), are supporting the Nordic cause with some good strong back-bone. The Norwegians, though small and less facilitated by native blood, are consolidating well. Even the Faroese are attempting to build a civilization. And, there is quite some heart behind the Icelandic contigency. I have posted a 'Phrases' thread, so far. I hope also to post a thread on pronunciation, and one on basic grammar. And, some verb conjugation posts may be in order. Hopefully there are enough Danish enthusiasts to use a 'Sentences and Paragraphs' thread, where we can test out our [i]little to no[/i] knowledge. There are a couple of Danes around who have said they'd be willing to throw in corrections, but it is the youngbloods that will have to lead the way, as is the case in the other territories of our Nordic Empire (yes, I'm still talking about the forums. ha ha). This particular thread can act as a 'basic ideas', 'miscellaneous' and perhaps even the 'sentence and paragraph' page I spoke of. So, feel free to test your tongue (pen, no..keyboard) here.
[i]Edit: Ulven you inspired me to add color! -Peter[/i] | ||

| - To arms, brothers! ;) Agreed, phrasebase has unfortunately been suffering from a few problems of late... I also encountered the same problem as you, trying to enter a forum, and nothing would work. It seemed the internet gods were angry. Anyway, I would be happy to help you out! I am just like you, neither a Dane nor able speaker, but perhaps an ANZAC alliance could prove to be profitable once more? :D | ||

| - Jeg hedder Ulven (the wolf). Jeg kommer fra Australien. Jeg bor i byen af Sydney. Jeg er otteogtyve år. Måske vil jeg gerne flyve til Danmark nogen tid at leve der. Jeg glæder mig med musik, hunde, at skrive, natur, og alting anden. - My name is Ulven (the wolf). I'm from Australia, and live in the city of Sydney. I am twenty eight years of age, and hope to live in Denmark some day. I like music, dogs, writing, nature, and everything else. Ja Twizzla, også hvis Prinsesse Mary bliver på tronet, kan vi gøre meget for sproget fra den sydlige landen:)lol. | ||
| CharonPlu | Friday 11th of March 2005 12:48:56 PM | |
| - Hei Ulven, hyggelig å treffe deg. Jeg lærer norsk men det er liknende til dansk. Så jeg skal komm her av og til også. (Hi Ulven, nice to meet you. I am learning Norwegian but it is similar to Danish. So, I'll come by time to time also.) Godt hell til De! ~Charon edit: um, in danish? Hej Ulven , hyggelig hen til gøre bekendtskab med jer. Jeg lære norsk men den er nær dansk. Altså , Jeg må stop af fra tid til anden. | ||
| Ulven | Friday 11th of March 2005 10:30:53 PM | |
| - Tak for det, CharonPlu. Ja, jeg forstår norsk også. Ak ja, såvel som jeg vider dansk og svensk. Ser du, jeg lærer mig den to. Jeg glæder mig at kende norsk til mindst et lidt. Selvførgelig, er jeg nybegynder:D. Tak for at stoppe her, det var venlig. Jeg har set dig på spilere til "Miscellaneous". Vi måste voks oss op!:)ha ha. Hav det godt! Thanks for that, CharonPlu. Yes, to the degree that I speak Swedish and Danish I can pick up Norwegian. It's good to know a bit about all of them, and see their differences, so you can go anywhere in Scandinavia and handle yourself. I am of course, a beginner:D. Thanks for stopping by, it was nice of you. I've seen you on the "Miscellaneous" games. We need to grow up:)! ha ha. See you! | ||

| - Ulven, You flatter me. I'd be honored to be considered one of your henchwomen here. I've even got the Danish version of the same book we're using in the Swedish forum. Please count me in. I've always learned languages simultaneously (I did fabulously with German and French at the same time) so why not Danish and Swedish? King Ulven, you have my undying support. ;) -Tina | ||

| - Vi vill ha tillbaks Bornholm!!!!! ;) | ||
| Stine | Friday 25th of March 2005 04:21:43 AM | |
| - Bornholm tilhører vel egentlig burgunderne :p | ||
| Rikard | Saturday 26th of March 2005 03:43:37 PM | |
| - det är väl ganska självklart att Bornholm borde tillhöra det land som ligger närmast :) | ||
| Stine | Monday 28th of March 2005 06:06:55 AM | |
| - Ja, det er det vel :) Men hvorfor tog Sverige ikke også Bornholm, da Halland, Blekinge og Skåne blev svensk igen? | ||
| Rikard | Wednesday 30th of March 2005 05:20:19 AM | |
| - Nån gång en kort tid hade vi Bornholm. Men jag tror vi gav bort det, hehe. Någon som vet varför? | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 30th of March 2005 12:44:45 PM | |
| - Hehe, det har jeg også altid undret mig over | ||
| Ulven | Wednesday 30th of March 2005 01:37:51 PM | |
| - [b]***I AFTEN*** "Danmark mod Sverige"[/b] De kæmper over land fra den gammel dagerne ADVARSEL: Der vil bli blod... men hvis? ------------------------------------------------------------- [i]That's my pathetic attempt at announcing a 'swedanish' territorial dispute about to resurface. :)lol. I don't know the plurals of many words. I don't know how to use most of these words properly, and I'm not even sure I understood exactly what you guys were talking about in the first place :s. lol[/i] Oh yeah, the English translation; [b]***TONIGHT*** "Denmark vs Sweden"[/b] They battle over territories from the old days WARNING: There will be blood... but whose? | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 30th of March 2005 08:14:14 PM | |
| - lol, we were just talking about Bornholm, why it's not a part of Sweden and such. No blood:p Plural of [i]dag[/i] is [i]dage[/i] (de gamle dage). Bornholm var formelt en del af Sverige fra 1658 til 1660. Jeg fandt lige det her: [i]ca. 1700 mio. fvt.:[/i] Bornholm dannes som den ældste del af Danmark [i]ca. 1000:[/i] Bornholm bliver en del af det danske kongerige [i]18. februar 1658: Danmark og Sverige slutter fred. Danmark mister Skåne, Halland, Blekinge, Bornholm og en del af Norge[/i] [i]11. august 1658:[/i] Karl Gustav fortryder fredsaftalen med Danmark, og svenske tropper indleder igen en belejring af København. [i]Hvem sagde ubeslutsom? Hehe;)[/i] [i]8. december 1658:[/i] Bornholm befrier sig selv fra den svenske besættelse. [i]De havde åbenbart ikke lyst til at være en del af Sverige, for herefter forærede de øen til Frederik III[/i] [i]10. februar 1659:[/i] Svenske tropper stormer København, men bliver slået tilbage. De danske tab er 12 soldater, imens adskillige tusinde svenske soldater mister livet. [i]14. november 1659:[/i] Svenske tropper bliver besejret ved Nyborg. [i]Maj 1660:[/i] En fredsaftale underskrives i København. Norge får Trondhjems Len tilbage og Danmark får Bornholm tilbage. | ||
| Rikard | Thursday 31st of March 2005 02:20:43 AM | |
| - haha. Lustigt att danmark fick tillbaks något de redan hade (Bornholm hade ju gjort uppror) :) | ||
| Ulven | Thursday 31st of March 2005 06:23:48 PM | |
| - Da, Jeg hørdte at Danmark vil at tage Gothenburg så kan de have andet sted for at placere det lands affalde :D. [i]Well, I heard that Denmark wants to take Gothenburg so they'll have somewhere to ship their country's annual garbage[/i] :D. (Oh no, the Aussie convict jokes are coming my way now:() | ||
| teknogeek | Thursday 31st of March 2005 07:32:35 PM | |
| Dansk - Ulven, This Danish stuff is easier than I thought. AND contrary to popular belief, the pronunciation is closer to my "Long Island English" than Swedish. No worries though, I'm going to keep up with the two of the languages, and I won't quit until I'm an expert! :) -Teknogeek | ||

| - Arteum. De har hela Jylland att dumpa skräp på =) Det är bara att skeppa skiten över Lilla/Stora (?) Bält. Tina. you're just imagining. Pronouncing danish is impossible. I'm making some progress understanding it hehe but i could never twist my tounge like that. Maybe it's cause i have danish relatives i can understand some. Most swedes don't ;) | ||
| teknogeek | Friday 01st of April 2005 12:18:08 AM | |
| Pronunciation - I may be imagining, but the Danish "A", like in the word "Hans" is very similar to the way a lot of Long Islanders say their "A"s. We've a distinct accent, and I happened to notice a similarity there. So maybe that's the only similarity, but it's a similarity none-the-less. :) | ||

| Stine | Friday 01st of April 2005 12:03:29 PM | |

Not too bad, for a start? I learned all of that in my first lesson. I hope I didn't make too many mistakes! :) | ||
| Jenkie | Saturday 02nd of April 2005 04:34:22 AM | |

| Jenkie | Monday 04th of April 2005 12:19:02 AM | |

| Stine | Monday 04th of April 2005 03:27:07 AM | |
| - Jeg prøver at lære det:) Det lyder helt utroligt | ||
| Jenkie | Monday 04th of April 2005 03:55:40 AM | |
| - Jeg synes, det er sjovt, at de stadig ikke er uafhængige. De har ellers prøvet et par gange, men hvorfor er det lige, vi vil beholde dem? Er det bare fordi dronningen godt kan lide at gå tur deroppe? Og det samme med færøerne, jeg forstår virkelig ikke hvorfor vi stadig mener at bestemme over dem, hvad skal det nytte? | ||

| - Tja, det er egentlig underligt. | ||
| Stine | Monday 04th of April 2005 11:50:28 PM | |
| - Altså, når man nu samtidig snakker om broderskab - senere ja. Specielt 1800-tallets skandinavisme. Bare tag sange som [i]'En skål for de blinkende søernes bånd'[/i], [i]'Høje Nord, friheds hjem!'[/i] og teksten [i](..) 'vor fremtid er stor, thi det trekløvede Nord, det skal samles igen, det skal blive sig selv'[/i] fra [i]'Åndesyn fra gamle dage'[/i]. Et eller andet sted er vi vel som brødre - hader og elsker hinanden ;) | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 01:29:51 AM | |
| - eller svenska nationalsången; [i]jag vill leva, jag vill dö i norden[/i] :) | ||
| Jenkie | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 02:11:34 AM | |
| - haha angående nationalsangen kan vi ikke ligefrem bidrage med nogen form for ytring om sammenhold, tværtimod. Vores nationalsang handler udelukkende om, hvor godt Danmark er. Öehnschläger som forfatteren hedder har virkelig været glad for Danmark. Freja, jeg skal love for du har styr på din litteratur. :) | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 03:27:50 AM | |
| - Ja, selvfølgelig også den svenske nationalsang!:) Min hukommelse, hmm.. [i]ack, jag vill leva, jag vill dö i Norden![/i] Nej, egentlig handler vores sang ikke om, hvor godt der er i Danmark. Det er sådan, du tolker sangen. Jeg synes, den forholder sig meget neutralt på det område. Den siger sådan og sådan er det i Danmark - om folk så synes, der er godt i Danmark, er vel bare godt ;) - men ja, han var vel glad for Danmark. Hehe, tak. Jeg kan så også kun huske de ting, der interesserer mig:D | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 04:56:37 AM | |
| - skandinaver är helt enkelt bäst!!! (ingen jantelag här inte ;)) | ||

| Ulven | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 04:54:28 PM | |

Jeg hedder Tina, og jeg bor i New York. Jeg taler engelsk, tysk, fransk, og lidt svensk. Jeg har en søster. Hun hedder Lisa. Lisa er 22 år gammel, og jeg er 26 år gammel.[/quote]Velkommen Tina til det danske forum:) (igen). Men at jeg har skrivet en præsentation allerede, vil jeg skrive en igen for praksisen. Mit navn er Ulven, og jeg kommer fra Australien. Min by er Sydney. Jeg er ottatyve år og jeg har to brødre. De er seksogtyve og enogtredivte år gammel. Jeg snakker fransk, og selvfølgeligt... engelsk. Mit talt dansk og svensk ikke så bra, men kan jeg skrive dem nogle. Tja, et lidet. Nogle tid måske vil rejse jeg til Danmark at leve. Nu ønsker jeg at praktisere mit talt dansk og svensk så meget at det er muligt med mit nye web-camera:D. Vi snakker! --------------------------------------------------------- -WOAH!!! I can't believe how many posts are in this thread since I was here last. There were only about ten when I last saw. Welcome to the Danish forum, Tina :) (again). Even though I've already written an introduction, I'll do another just for practice. My name is Ulven, and I'm from Australia. Sydney is my city. I'm twenty eight years old and have two brothers. They're twenty six and thirty one. I speak French, and of course... English. My spoken Danish and Swedish isn't impressive at all, but I can write in these languages well enough. Well, in the basics. Some day I may very well go to Denmark to live. I hope to practice my spoken Danish and Swedish. I hope to practise my spoken as much as possible now with my new web-camera :D. See you around! ([i]lit.[/i] 'we (will) speak') | ||
| Jenkie | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 07:53:36 PM | |
| - Freja, du kan ikke påstå at sangen er helt objektiv. Lad mig komme med nogle eksempler: Titlen: Der er et YNDIGT land 1. Strofe vers. 6 og 7: og det er Frejas sal Freja er i den nordiske mytologi skønhedens gud, endnu en hyldest til skønheden af landet. Det skal dog også siges at hun også var krigens gud, så det er klart, at det også har en betydning. 3. strofe vers 1: Det land endnu er skønt 3. strofe vers 5: Og ædle kvinder, skønne mø'r mø'r = møer = gammelt dansk for unge kvinder 4. strfoe vers 1: Hil drot og fædreland Hil kongen og Danmark, endnu en hyldest til Danmark. Som du kan se, er der man subjektive kommentare til landet. :) | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 08:09:25 PM | |
| - freja var kärlekens och skönhetens gudinna. Inte krigens. Var har du fått det ifrån? | ||
| Jenkie | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 08:14:06 PM | |
| - Nej, undskyld. Det er sandt. Jeg tænkte på en anden =) Hun var elskovs- og frugbarhedsgudinde. | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 09:10:10 PM | |
| I arv de gav dig en ædel gave.. - Nej, måske ikke helt objektiv, men stadig ikke understregende. Igen er det jo, hvordan du tolker ordene "det er Frejas sal".. Men jo, jeg forstår godt, hvad du mener. Jeg [i]skal[/i] bare være af modsat mening ;) Kan det passe, at krigsgudinden så hedder Aemhildur, eller blander jeg det sammen med noget helt andet? Det lyder meget islandsk i hvert fald. Jeg har hørt, at Freja og/eller Frigg også er, men jeg ved snart ikke. Pinligt, det burde jeg vide, haha :p | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 05th of April 2005 09:26:54 PM | |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Ulven[/i] Vi snakker! See you around! ([i]lit.[/i] 'we (will) speak')[/quote] 'Vi snakker' means 'we speak'. Snakkes is a passive form, so it would be something like 'we are/will be being spoked'? Haha, makes no sense :p Jenkie, Hoogard! Hjælp mig lige her, haha. Jeg har vist rodet mig ud i noget, jeg ikke kan forklare.. Jag lyckades inte göra mig förstådd, hehe ;) | ||
| Jenkie | Wednesday 06th of April 2005 03:26:56 AM | |
| - Haha right, The passive form in danish where you add an -s means that you are being [insert verb in the preterite participle tense (kort tillægsform) ] E.g. Du spises = you are being eaten. However, it's rarely used in contextes like that. But you are right Freja, "vi snakkes" literally means "We are being spoken" and in English it makes no sense really, cos you are actually talking about the future but in Danish we really don't have a future tense. Not grammatically. Grammatically future is the same as present (where you add an -r) however it is common to indicate that you are talking about future by metioning time statements as, tomorrow or next week. E.g. Vi snakkes i morgen = I'll talk to you tomrrow (litterally = we are being spoken tomorrow). But it would be logical to say "Vi snakker i morgen" however it is not correct :) i know, freaking languages I know it's raher advanced and I won't recommend anyone to try to understand it :P Just learn by heart, it is called "Vi snakkes". If you want to read a rather short explanation you can go to: http://www.geocities.com/tsca.geo/dansk/dkverbs.html#passive it's quite easy to understand. And here is another explanation: http://speakdanish.dk/html/gram_verb_passive.htm ta tah! :) I luv grammar muhahahahhah | ||
| Jenkie | Wednesday 06th of April 2005 03:32:51 AM | |
| - Jeg har heller ikke helt styr på det med aserne, men leksikonnet siger: Freja: en nordisk elskovs- og frugtbarhedsgudinde af vanernes slægt, datter af Njord og søster til Frej. Parallel til gudinden Frigg af asernes slægt som hun har fortrængt til en plads som gudinde for den ægteskabelige kærlighed. Boede i Folkvang og havde en vogn trukket af katte. Hun har lært Odin sejd- el. trolddomskunsten. Der står også lidt om Frigg, så hun er altså ikke nogen krigsgud. Aemhildur har jeg aldrig hørt om før ;) | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 06th of April 2005 03:55:31 AM | |
| - Tak, tak, tak! :D Ja, de ting om Freja ved jeg, men det er bare, om hun er krigsgudinde. Nå, men så kan jeg da lige tilføje nogle ting om hende: [b]Hun ejer Brisingamen Hun får halvdelen af Odins faldne krigere* Hun var gift med Od, men han forsvandt den første nat Hendes tårer er som guld** Hun har forskellige tilnavne: [i]Hærn[/i] - Det er egentlig kendt fra svenske stednavne, f.eks. Hernevi. [i]Hørn[/i] - Jeg vil gætte på, det er det samme navn som Hærn [i]Vanadis[/i] *** [/b] Nej, det tænkte jeg nok. Hehe, det er sikkert bare mig, der blander det hele sammen med noget andet ;) [i]*De faldne krigere kommer jo til Valhal. 'Val' betyder helt simpelt 'en falden kriger'. Jeg synes lige, det skulle med **Det er derfor skjaldene kaldte guld 'Frejas tårer' *** Vana[i]dis[/i] - Ordet [i]dis[/i] er et gammelt nordisk ord og betyder [i]gudinde[/i] og Vana - Vaner?[/i] | ||

| Stine | Friday 08th of April 2005 08:04:01 PM | |

| - Haha, det er sådanne kommentarer - og hvem kan undvære en kommentar som [i][b]skandinaver är helt enkelt bäst!!![/i][/b]? ;) Tja, jeg kan ikke! | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 05:20:36 AM | |
| - borde jag inte få någon tillbaks då? :D | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 07:56:49 PM | |
| - Så dét synes du? Hehe. Det burde du vel.. Jamen, hvor mange skal du så have? ;) | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 08:26:53 PM | |
| - 2,73 | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 09:03:18 PM | |
| - Hmm.. 2,73? Tja, det bliver måske lidt svært :p | ||
| Rikard | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 10:19:08 PM | |
| - Jag som trodde ni danskar var bäst på allt!? Är det inte vad ni säger? :) | ||
| Stine | Tuesday 12th of April 2005 11:21:17 PM | |
| - Det ved jeg næsten ikke. Jeg sagde heller ikke, jeg ikke kunne. Bare, at det ville blive svært.. Hvis du siger stop, kan det vel lade sig gøre? :p | ||
| Rikard | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 01:35:28 AM | |
| - Förvarna mig när du är på 2,69 så jag hinner säga stopp i tid då! | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 01:39:27 AM | |
| - Kan vi ikke sige 2,71 i stedet for? Det er lidt nemmere! | ||
| Rikard | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 02:42:21 AM | |
| - whatever you say darling. lol vad vi spammat ner den här tråden nu hehe :D | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 03:50:47 AM | |
| - Tja, nogle skal vel gøre det, haha ;) ..i øvrigt har det også været en interessant samtale, haha :D | ||
| Rikard | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 04:09:43 AM | |
| - Intressanta människor kan givetvis bara prata om intressanta saker :) | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 04:20:04 AM | |
| - Tja, endnu engang må jeg give dig ret! Gissa om vi trivs! :D | ||
| Rikard | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 06:11:55 PM | |
| - :D | ||
| Stine | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 09:25:55 PM | |
| - Du er enig? Hehe ;) | ||
| Ulven | Wednesday 13th of April 2005 11:52:54 PM | |
| - Jeg finder det morsom at læse en dansker og en svensker snakker med hinanden på deres selvs sprog. Samtalen på to spog forekommer fremmed og mosom.:) -I find it really amusing to see Swedes and Danes write with each other in their own respective languages, it look svery strange and funny.:) The vocabulary in this conversation is too complex for me too understand, though.:( lol. | ||
| Rikard | Thursday 14th of April 2005 03:09:57 AM | |
| - oh you're probobly understanding more danish than i am. I'm just guessing ;) | ||
| Stine | Thursday 14th of April 2005 03:30:04 AM | |
| - Ulveven, don't worry! It's nothing interesting ;) Hmm, du gætter bare? Jaså.. :p | ||
| Rikard | Thursday 14th of April 2005 03:37:09 AM | |
| - Ja jag gissar bara. Det kanske är kvalificerade gissningar men gissningar är det likväl :) | ||
| Stine | Thursday 14th of April 2005 12:47:38 PM | |
| - Ja, det er meget kvalificeret! Du forstår da det meste | ||
| Rikard | Thursday 14th of April 2005 06:56:09 PM | |
| - Det gäller att ha tur :) | ||
| Stine | Thursday 14th of April 2005 07:53:53 PM | |
| - I så fald er du da meget heldig :D | ||
| Rikard | Friday 15th of April 2005 08:59:34 PM | |
| - kanske borde börja spela på lotto? | ||
| Stine | Friday 15th of April 2005 09:03:26 PM | |
| - Du kunne da prøve.. Lad mig vide, om det virker! Du deler vel ud af dit held, hvis det er? | ||
| Rikard | Friday 15th of April 2005 09:24:57 PM | |
| - Kanske. Till dem som jag känner har varit med och bidragit :) | ||
| Stine | Friday 15th of April 2005 09:26:58 PM | |
| - Ja, selvfølgelig :) Jeg venter spændt på at høre resultatet så.. | ||

| - Jeg tror det ikke. Jeg fandt en danske film med dansk undertekst. Den hedder Open Hearts (De hedder sig nogen anden i Danmark. Jeg glemme havd er det). Jeg holde ikke af filmen så meget, men det er dansk. Så jeg er lykkelig. Jeg kan bruge sit engelske tekst og engelsks lyd også, men jeg vil altid at have lyden og teksten og mit målsprog (target language). Jeg håber at finde en på svensk og fransk også, med ord for ord oversættelse. Hvis ingen ved om der kan man finde udlander films (non-English) manuskripte på internetet, vær venlig at se til? Tak. Svensk filmer, dansk filmer og fransk fimer etc. Særligt for Babettes Gæstebud (Babbette's Feast). Jeg købte filmen, men der har ikke nogen dansk undertekst.:( Det er nemt at forstå (compared to other films). De snakker klart og langsomt:). -I can't believe it. I finally found a foriegn film with foriegn subtitles. A Danish film called Open Hearts. I don't remember what they call it in Denmark. I don't care for the film, reallly. But it's in Danish with Danish subtitles, word for word. If you know of any websites that have the filmscripts in foriegn films, let me know please? Thanks. I have Babette's Feast. The good good thing about this film is they speak clearly and slowly. It's very easy to follow compared to other foriegn fims. But I'd still like to have subtitles too. | ||
| Stine | Saturday 30th of April 2005 02:46:48 PM | |
| - I think Open Hearts is called Elsker dig for evigt (Love you forever) in Danish | ||
| Ulven | Sunday 01st of May 2005 12:54:10 PM | |
| - Ja, det er det. Jeg husker. Jeg holde ikke af denne film, virkelig, men det laerer til mig dansk. Det har interviewe og anden ting som er flere nemt at lytte til end filmen sig selv. Min favorit danske film er Lykkevej, tror jeg. Jeg holde af Birthe Neumann. Hun er meget interessant. Men nogen gang, jeg finder danske filmer kedelig. -Yes, that's the one. I don't really like this film, but it teaches me Danish:D. There are interviews and extras, which are easier to follow than the film itself. My favourite Danish film is Lykkevej (Move Me, in English), I think. I like Birthe Neumann. I find her interesting, especially in Lykkevej. But I find alot of Danish films boring. If I wasn't learning Danish, only a some of them I'd watch. Wow, I don't have Danish keys at the moment, and I went through this whole post without needing a Danish letter. ha ha :). Wow! | ||

| - My friends watched a danish movie some weeks ago. It was called "men jag skulle ju bara hjälpa till" or something like that, in swedish that is. They said it was really funny. Maybe i should watch it. Have you seen it freja? | ||
| Ulven | Sunday 01st of May 2005 10:23:01 PM | |
| - Ja, dette er titelen rigtigt. Men nej, jeg har ikke enten set eller. Jeg så et billede om den. Og ja, det ser ud til sjovt. Der er en man som har revolvere placerede til sit hoved. I Danmark og Sverige, bruger de en oversættelse for titelen af filme? Så, for en svenske film har de en danske titel? -Yes, that's the title exactly. I've not seen the film, but I found the picture of its cover. It shows a man with five guns pointed at his head. It looks like it could be funny.So in Denmark and Sweden, do they translate the foreign title from each other's language. eg. A Swedish film in Denmark, is it given a Danish title? Hoogles (lol), is the correct translation of "Men jag skulle ju bara hjälpa til"---> "But, not even I can help" or "If only I could help". The man in the picture is obviously not in a postion to help, which is why the title is so funny with the accompanying photo. "jeg har ikke enten set eller"- Danes! Is this wrong? I meant to say "I haven't seen it either". I thought the 'den' wasn't needed, as it was already known I was talking about the film. I don't know how to form 'either' in Danish. | ||

| - Nej, Jenkie Nej!!!:)lol De laver min thread se ud til godt. Min thread er i Top 10 fordi af dem.:). Snak her flere, og flere! :)haha Besides, i get to interject too. Hvis det var private, jeg vil ikke kunne det. Det her er morskabt til mig at se dem snakker paa dansk OG svensk :D. -No. They make my thread look good. They got it into the Top 10 :)lol. Keep speaking here! haha. If it was private, I wouldn't be able to interject. It suits me:D. I get to see them speak Swedish AND Danish. I always have quesions to ask, too, when I see their conversation. It is funny though, Jenkie, isn't it. :p | ||

| thiudans | Thursday 12th of May 2005 08:11:35 AM | |
| - hej folkens, I skriver rigtigt godt dansk selvom I ikke er det. Dog er det ik så svært at tro med norsksnakkeren, thi du skriver jo dansk allerede, kun lidt for klart ;) og svenskeren, tja, det er da ikke noget at sige. danmark og sverige *har* haft i fortiden det samme sprog (det kaldes jo hverken svensk eller dansk men nordøstgermansk eller sådan noget i den stil). cheers allesammen | ||
| Ulven | Thursday 12th of May 2005 11:52:31 AM | |
| - Vilkommen Aamir Sheik, Dno og Thiudans. Jeg har ikke rejsede til Danmark saa har du, [i]Aamir[/i]. :( [i]Dno[/i], saa fa du at se here, jeg kende ikke [i]the extra letters[/i]. Jeg har en danske clavier pa en computer. Men ikke denne. Saa, ogsaa jeg ville holde af vide hviker noegle er 'aa', 'ae', og 'oe' paa engelsk clavier. Thiudans, man kan forstar hindanden til skrift, paa norsk og dansk nemt, hvis man har practiserede en eller anden sprog. Og svensk ogsaa. Til talt, svensk og norsk forstar hindanden uden nogen problem overhuvedet. Men de to ser dansk er ikke nemt at lytte til. De behoever praksis dansk seperat for lidt tid. (paa engelsk) Welcome you three:). I've never been to Denmark as you have, Aamir. Dno, as you'll see here, I also don't know how to type those Danish letters on an English keyboard. I have a Danish keyboard setting on my other computer. But not this one, obviously. I'd also like to know the code for these letters. Thiudans, in written, Norwegian and Danish is so very similar. It's quite easy to understand the other languages, especially Morwegian. Swedish is a bit different, but still mostly comprehensible. You may notice that Hoogard has been writing in Swedish to Freja, and Freja has been writing back to him in Danish. I don't really understand all they're saying, but that's more because their grammar isn't catered to my beginner's level so much. But when they both write to me, I can understand. Though, I did start with Swedish, not Danish. In spoken, the Norwegians and Swedes tease the Danes for not speaking properly :)lol. Even though Danish looks like Norwegian on the page, Norwegian is spoken like Swedish. So... "Danes understand us, we (Swedes and Norwegians) understand each other... but no-one understands the Danes" haha. That's what a Norwegian jested to me. And the Danes tease the other two for being too prim and proper with their speech. I think you have to practice Danish listening seperately a bit. But... when I had only learnt Swedish, and not even touched Danish, I was able to catch the same amount in Danish films as in Swedish films. But that'd be because of all the really common verbs and phrases being similar. Beyond that, Danish is much harder to follow. But once you've learnt the pronunciation, it takes less energy to speak it. It's much more comfortable and relaxed in your mouth, because there are no harsh sounds to push. I've personally forgotten how to pronounce my Swedish, but it'll take just a couple of listens to a tape and speaking it... and it'll come back. They feel totally different to speak. This is a beginners view, of course. A native Scandinavian may have other ideas. :D Welcome everyone! | ||
