That's great, thanks a lot! 😊😊😊

Thanks 😁

Dank je! Ik heb noch niet geprobeert te schrijven ob Nederlands. Dit is de eerste maal. Ik ben zeker dat de text is heel verkeert! 😁 Godt at høre at du synes at videoen er nyttig :)

@@MicsLanguages Je schriftelijke Nederlands is zeer goed 👌👌👌 Wij zijn trots op jou!

Thanks, that's nice of you to say. My plan is to make new videos more regularly. There are some things I have to get under control in my life before I can get more productive again on this channel. But I will be back!! 😁

The trick with the dog walking and number plates is perfect! Combine learning with your day to day activities. That's the way it should be done!

@@MicsLanguages I’ve gotten pretty dang good with numbers by now to the point where I can drive by cars(less time to see the plate) and read the 3 digit numbers. I wanted to ask: in Danish, do folks sometimes read a 3-digit number as a 1-digit followed by 2-digit number, or do they always use hundrede to state the hundreds? Ex: 256 as “to saksoghalvfems” rather than “to hundrede saksoghalvfems”

Watch out. You wrote you're good with the numbers now, so I suppose you made a typo. 256 is not to hundrede seksoghalvfems 🧐 Regarding your question, I'd say that we use both of these options, depending on the situation.

Hej! Thanks for the suggestion. As a matter of fact, I am keeping this topic as something that I can make into a paid online course at some point. Right now I am doing one-on-one online lessons, but in the future I want to move in the direction of online courses. I'm sorry, for now I won't make any videos on Danish vowels. But there is already a bit of information about them in some of my videos on pronunciation. Not comprehensive at all, though. The guy on the channel called Dansk Udtale is great, have you checked out his videos?

Thanks, I'm glad it was helpful!

thank you!

ohhh, thank you so much!! 😀

Oh I see. Didn't know that. Thanks! At those times, when the British were still reasonable (😁), what was being used for a thousand millions then?

Yeah exactly, that's confusing for both of us. It could just be the same in all countries, I see no reason for having two different systems.🤔

Yeah some things just seem to be way more complex than they need to be. 😁 But in a way that's also what makes life interesting IMHO 🤔

Great that it solves gud. What else do we need if God is solved? 🙄 tre and træ are the same to most Danes nowadays. gulv and guld are the same, except for the vowel sound, which is u in guld and å in gulv. Both vowels are short. gul has a long u vowel with stød. You can hear the words pronounced in den danske ordbog. Hope this solves the mysteries in your life 😉

Grattis 10.000!!

Tak!! 🙂 Grattis er svensk, på dansk er det Tillykke med de 10000 subscribers (eller "abonnenter" for at bruge det udtryk som youtube bruger på dansk)

can we also maybe have a video on pronunciation of words with the r then d, for example brød or vred?

Godt spørgsmål. Jeg forstår godt du er forvirret, for svensk bruger, som du selv siger, altid "har". Dansk bruger at være og at have når vi danner førnutid / perfektum. Der er nogle verber hvor man altid bruger have (det er de fleste verber), og der er nogle hvor man altid bruger være. At blive er et af de verber hvor vi altid bruger være. Så det er altid forkert at sige "har blevet" eller "havde blevet" . Derudover er der verber hvor vi bruger enten have eller være, alt efter situationen. Det drejer sig om bevægelsesverberne, for eksempel at gå, at køre, at løbe. Her bruger vi have, når der er et objekt. For eksempel: Jeg har kørt min mor til lufthavnen (min mor er objektet her). Men vi bruger normalt at være når der ikke er et objekt. Eksempel: - Hvor er Peter? - Han er allerede kørt. Men der er også situationer hvor vi bruger at have selvom det ikke er et objekt. For eksempel: Jeg har rejst meget i Sydamerika. Her fokuserer vi på handlingen. Hvis vi derimod fokuserer på "verdenssituationen", dvs. det faktum at personen er et andet sted end vedkommende var før, så bruger vi at være, som i dette eksempel: Peter er rejst til Thailand. Det var end kort indledning til emnet. Jeg håber at du nu forstår det bedre 😉

@@MicsLanguages Tak for din forklaring. Det gør tingene lidt nemmere for mig nu.

@@habbomanish Perfekt!

yes it helps for sure

You're right. Every language has exceptions, and probably every language also has exceptions to exceptions. That means there is more data to assimilate for our brains, which of course makes it more difficult to learn the language, because we can't just infer from other data in every case. This particular example of yours is interesting. I've never thought about this before. It would indeed be very strange if someone said hundrede (og) halvanden. I guess the rule is: halvanden can only be on its own, it cannot be combined with bigger numbers.

I guess that's a way to do it 🤔

🤣

🤣

That's an interesting question. I'm not sure what causes this particular problem, apart from Danes not being good (or willing?) at understanding Danish that's not 100 percent native sounding. You can send me an audio file where you say your number in a relaxed, normal way, several times, and then send it to me and I'll take a look at it. Du har stadig min mail-adresse, ikke?

@@MicsLanguages jeg har sendt en mail nu :)
