I an NOT doing that bad
Danish People: What are you saying
True
Yes
Ja, yes
Thats right
Ummm hej jeg elsker rød grød med fløde you Christmas i say jul
"rødgrød med fløde"
"rod grod m' flod"
*DYING*
"I feel like I'm correct"
😂😂
Lmao, i died at that part XD
Sounds like a wrestler
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how the "rødgrød med fløde" was represented by a bowl of oatmeal, when it's actually made of berries, and the "hakkebøf" was represented by some huge steak, when it's a beef made from minced meat lol
tomkyleviven it’s basically a burger patty
@@AndreasJepsenMusic true
I am danish and I can only sit back and laugh😂
Ikr😂 Men også lidt irriterende at høre på samtidig😂
Spurgt
Samme!
Same
Også her
you should have a special episode where they pronounce norwegian, swedish and danish words, then they have to guess if the word is swedish, danish or norwegian
Omg YASSSS
Oh yeah, do that please🙏🏻
Gaskur Good one!!!
Gaskur omg yasss that would be awesome
Gaskur YES! This!! (I'm Swedish xD)
I love how they think they are saying it almost right when they aren't even close
Ainsley Harriott you ate so rigt
Ainsley Harriott i
Ainsley Harriott exactly
Well, they'll still trying, thought.
"All I know about danish is the pastry"
What makes it bad is that it isnt even a danish invention
And i was just thinking WHAT ABOUT LEGO?
lol
We have just mastered the craft of making alcohol that no one else likes.
In Denmark its actually called wienerbread lol. Which ofc makes sense since it Venician (not sure how to spell that correctly)
@@vicnihgin7171 Its from Vienna (Wien in danish) which is the capital of Austria
Hvem ser det her, og er fra DANMARK!🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
mig
Dummedanskeyoutubere Lol MIG lol jeg syntes bare det er sjovt at se folk fra andre lande prøve at sige danske ord
Mig
Jeg er fra Norge lol
Mig
Man bliver helt varm inden i når folk kender lille Danmark !
Not really.
lasse lækker Ro på. Jeg kender en amerikaner, der tror at Danmark er hovedstaden i Stockholm, og at vi hedder "vikinger" og ikke "danskere" :D
XD ha ja okay vi er nok ikke helt store
***** yes really
Jaa, flere danskere :D
Men ja, specielt Amerikanere har ingen idé om hvad Danmark er.
Da jeg var i New York, troede folk at det enten var i Kina eller et eventyrland, pga H.C Andersen.
Og vi havde endda en gadesælger der forsøgte at bilde os ind, at han var kammerater med H.C Andersen, og derfor da godt lige kunne give os lidt rabat.
Da vi så sagde at han altså var død, blev han først helt flov, og derefter gik over i kondolere. Da vi så kom med "He's been dead for over 100 years, so I think we're pretty much over it now, but thank you." kunne han godt fornemme at han bare skulle finde en anden nationalitet og hustle med i stedet :p. The more you know ;).
"I'm not that bad"
Åh jo du er
Tænkte lige præcis det samme
haaahaha
Hahah xD
sant
Aahhaahhaaha
Mærkeligt at vi har den ting med "Rødgrød med fløde" jeg tror aldrig jeg har smagt det eller set andre spise det.
ja
Tror mere det kommer af at Dansk er et af de eneste sprog der udtaler D på den måde når den kommer efter ord som dem i sætningen, og så er den fylgt med Ø :)
Patrick P det smager ellers godt, du burde prøve det 😀😊😂
Yep
Ja det er typis Æ Ø Å de har sværest ved at udtale...nårh ja vi bruger jo de lyde 90-95% i næsten alle vores ord XD.
Ingen mig til at spise rød grød anyway ad!
"It sounds like the Sims"
Plot twist, they fashioned Simlish to sound like English. So, we are the ones who talk like Sims!
speciallægepraksisplanlægningsstabiliseringsperiode
Er det ét ord?!
HeyItsMe ja, det længste officielle danske ord XD
Sporvognsskinneskidtskraberfagforeningsbeklædningspersionalechefforvalter (Undskynd hvis der er stavefejl) xD
Tea D yea okay :) den var måske længere XD
XD
Says "Hakkebøf" Picture of something that looks nothing like a hakkebøf
Sandt
+videobro det er sikkert ikke en hakkebøf
Det er rigtigt
De ved ikke at hakket er minced xD
jeg ved godt at det ikke er hakkebøf
"I think i guess this"...
"Vidugnljger"
Danes: Hahahahaha
That’s not hakkebøf!
Sofie Lindhart Løve yeah. That was a steak. Hakkebøf is made with minced Meat!!
True
Nej 😂
Danes be like: "What's so hard about these words I don't understand?"
YAS
maybe because we have been grown up with the language, then we dont think its hard lol
+LoL Nurzer Er jeg? ._. Hvilke kanaler?
+Rohan Shukla Pretty much yeah...
+Rohan Shukla That is soo true!! I'm from Denmark and this is so freaking funny!!
Æ is a little bit Like the Way you say e in "hey" . Can't explain ø, and Å is Like the U in "underwear" :') or the o in "Ohh" there is 2 ways to say å... I Think... It's kinda hard to explain.. Hehe
The way I had it explained to me for ø was "Rød" sound like "you're trying to say 'roll' but gave up halfway through" and from my understanding of the very few words I was given at this time and through the help of Google Translate, that tends to be the same thing where to have the o like in roll and then you just stop.
Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
Laura Baden ø sounds a bit like a very fancy british lady saying "oh" in: "oooh, that's wonderful".
Laura Baden americans complain for all of these letters that have different sounds...they have 1 letter that can be pronounced in so many ways..depending where it is :D i think its easier with more letters
Laura Baden ø is sorta like the two o's in boot
Chris Nields This is random but I love your picture omfg
"rod grod my flod" oh my god that part cracked me up so much
I'm from Denmark and every time they say "that was really close" I was just like NOOOOOOOOO 👎😂
jeg er ik dansk men jeg kender lidt dansk og det var samme for mig lol
EVERYONE IS TRYING TO PRONOUNCE THE WORDS WITH A SWEDISH ACCENT AND IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE.
Also, the pastry is actually from Austria. If you wanna relate to something danish, how about Lego? :3
B34TTROLLER You pastry hater!
It's actually a combination! Get your facts straight ;)
B34TTROLLER Yeah, because it would have been really fun watching them pronounce Lego. They'd have never got that one
I know I'm half Swedish and sat here laughing at the attempts
Half danish club :)
I'm danish, and it's pretty fun to watch..
Yeah jeg syntes det sjovt
Ikr
Same..! Lol😂
Me to
i am to ha ha
This is so funny to watch as a dane 😂 and to see how they are not even close to the real words
It's painful to watch since i'm from Denmark😂

"Rodt Grodt Medt Flodt" 5 seconds later "I was pretty close"
I think ALMOST everybody there is watching this video is Danish..
I'm from Denmark
I am!
Debora Angel im danish
I'm from Spain, learning Swedish, and Dansk is so weird ffs I literally pronounced all of these words as if they were Swedish words
Im from denmark hehe
You should try Finnish words. Our words are ridiculously long and difficult.
“Hurskatelevaisehkollaismaisellisuuksissaankohankin hän toimi?“ Yeah, it's almost like German words :DD
katariinas lentokonesuihkuturbiinimoottoriapumekaanikkoaliupseerioppilas, petoeläinporovahinkoarviopartiointikustannukset, and mustavalkotäplähylkeennahkasaapasrasvatahnarasia for example... And some awesome palindromes like suruasussa hiipii hassu saurus and saippuakauppias.
Kurwa
beebikinis ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
Ooksi koksi
BEING DANISH THIS MADE ME LAUGH SO MUCH
Spurgt
"All i know of denmark is the pastry"
Ah yes the one from Vienna
Kamelåså!
I just wanna stand there and show them I know how to say these words XD
Det er så sjovt at se dem fail 🙊😂
I made a video to react on this.
Me too, and then have fun watching their shocked faces xD
den her video er sjov at se når jeg er dansk=This video is funny 2 see 'cuz i'm danish
"Watch"
I'm not even remotely close to being danish, swedish, norwegian or anything but come on !
Æ = e like in help, but without the blowing sound of the H.
ø = like the french "œ" like in "chef-d'œuvre".
å = like awe from awesome or aweful.
j = is a transition sound of sorts like a Y
Alex H. MotionDesign & Tutorials
Ok then. I'm not from Scandinavia after all, so I could very well be wrong. But I've always heard those sounds.
Æ is right. Ø, Å and J doesn't always sound the same, but your examples covers one way of saying each of them pretty well :)
I'm Norwegian and that's not even close
How about:
Æ=like the 'a' in 'happy'
ø= like the 'i' in 'girl'
å= you got that one right
j= like the 'y' in 'you'
Well, too be honest. Us danes are drunk pretty often...
Ok so I speak like a sims person now. That’s new
1:21 “I got it, it’s close enough” as a dane, I can tell you no, no it is not, hahah
I like Denmark, they're basically Europe's Canada.
Archie Andrews Trust me some of the people here are disgusting pigs:D
Ahaha, ahaha...
NOPE.
Danes arent polite
(I'm danish myself gryst me)
Archie Andrews Nobody really pays attention to us
aawwww... Thanks 😊
This makes me smile so much. I'm Danish and their pronunciation is so cute, haha :)
Charlotte Neumann *Cute* ?? Girl , my jaw almost broke !! :D
Sorry but it sounded so alien to me :D
I had to wipe the spit off my face
I'm also Danish and this was so funny I love it.
Buzzfeed er en rigtig god youtube kanal
Charlotte Neumann indeed it sounds cute :)
William Wasabi Ja på sin vis.. Nogle gang så synes jeg, at de er lidt lamme og ikke udvider deres horisont, men ja i princippet er det en god kanal :D
make one more of these
MAKE A PART 2!!
WE SPEAK LIKE THE SIMS?!?!?
Year okay lidt for dem men kineser og japanerne snakker som simmere for os xD
True
+Fun and games altså man kan siger der er en GIGA forskel mellem Dansk og Engelsk såååå ja jeg forstår dem endelig godt :)
Yasss
+Fun and games åbenbart XD
Hvem i helvede bruger ordet forårsjævndøgn mere? Jeg har ikke engang hørt min farmor sige det.. Hun er 85 :p
Silje Jønsson DR vejret har vel brugt det for halvanden måneds tid siden, som de gør hvert år.
Hørt! 😂
Drem yol lok, dovahkiin! Slain some dragons lately?
Silje Jønsson Det er der satme mange, der bruger. Det er jo sådan man adskiller de to jævndøgn.
Silje Jønsson Har aldrig brugt det i mine 27 år... :P

“They speak like the sims. The sims!!” Haha omg i’m dying!!
Anna Ottilie just stop.
Do we speak like the sims BTW Im from Denmark
Racist
Racism racist
No we don't! We are just a bit complicated, have you ever hear Arabic people talk? Thay are much worser!
Being Danish it's pretty cringeworthy when they say that our language is like the Sims language
I just imagined myself being a Sims character
i agree its really weird watching people pronounce danish words so wrong especialy when you know how to pronounce it right
I know i Hate on the Woman that said that........... ps jeg er dansk
our langauge is not sounding like the sims PS er også dansk
Jeg er også dansk
1:00 I CHOKED ON MY EASY MAC LMFAO

The guy that was like “rood grood med flood “ ILMAO
THIS IS MY LIFE RIGHT NOW.
Oh boy trying to learn Danish as an English speaker is horrendous. No matter how hard you try its just easier to speak English.
It's weird cuz as a dane english is actually pretty easy
Just speak English if you visit Denmark, we all know English ;)
***** Yeah, a friend who visited Denmark once told me Danish sounds like 'drunk German mumbled around a potato'.
I'm an English speaker trying to learn Swedish. It's not easy.
canuckinaround
I am in the same boat; an Englishman learning Danish but I am nearly done. It takes a while though.

I am from Iceland and have lived in Denmark for 10 years and very few of you speak fluent english
most millennials do :D
I'm danish myself, and it's really fun and cool to see other people trying to speak danish :p
I'm American but like 15% danish and my favorite food is frikadeller with some cabbage is so good, would love to visit sometime!!
Icelandic Icelandic Icelandic city names please! I'm not Icelandic but seriously, it will sure throw us off.

TheDarkRangerz I wish I knew...it sounds so pretty!
TheDarkRangerz im Faroese :)
U Want Some Nice, I want to visit Faroe Islands sometime
Do swedish words next!!!
Yeeees wanted tjat forever
Jasmine Mayne It's sad they can't really do norwegian if they have done danish, because the languages are so similar :/
But swedish is so different they could do that. But not icelandic (or how it's spelled). It is too easy. Finnish is really hard, I have heard.
Yeeees
Jaa! Svenska!
(Yes! Swedish!)
Jasmine Mayne yaaaaaa
I'm part Danish and Norwegian, and I speak the language. The æ ø and å parts literally killed me.
Oh boy, this is gonna be fun
We have Æ in English too. Is called BÆ
It means poop
u tried op
Eren Mortel bae (bæ) means poop
Eren Mortel ok.. but BÆ means poop! its weird that you call your gf, bf for Poop
bæ means bye in icelandic
too funny when you are danish.
Id like to see some1 from German speak danish
Damnit i would like to see some1 from German speak danish
TommyFortress or if you know Danish lol
Rød grød med fløde, great job jen👍❤️
Danish is too the "language where you have a potato in the mouth" lol
We don't even use the words: påskesøndagsprediken and forårsjævndøgn. Dudes.
Sara Knudsen Just because *you* don't ever use those words doesn't mean no one else does; both words are something you'd likely hear if you ever went to church some time in spring.
æšš
Jens Nielsen Church... Denmark.
You must be new here - Welcome to Denmark. Where we don't use churches for anything other than marriage, baptism and funerals.
Mansen Uhhhhh....what other uses are there for churches, exactly?
poltive Oh you know... prayer? Communion?
This is so funny if you are Danish😅
hjAlte11 yep.
YESSSS
Yup XDDDDD Hejsa!

when your danish it justs sound weird when hear something like this but it was fun anyway.
Danish sounds like vomiting.
Greetings from Sweden
Screw you! xD
Thanks, can only say the same thing about Swedish :)
Jojjohorse I goddanmn love the small little fights that Denmark and sweden has in between us, we're always trying to one up eachother
WorldOfMagic2011 hahha yesss
Jojjohorse if danish does then must all the languages close to it sound like vomitting XD.
This is pretty much only fun for Danes...
+TheDigitalZero yeah :)
Haha ja
same for norwegians kinda. not the same but kinda. funny for me atleast xD
I think for those who are Scandinavian in general. I am Norwegian and I laughed so hard.
+TheDigitalZero But MAN is it fun!
This actually had me crying out laughing!
They should try to say our longest word! Called ''speciallægepraksisplanlægningsstabeligseringsperiode'' xD!😆
The picture they had of a hakkebøf, wasn't even a hakkebøf...
Just as the picture of rød grød didn't show rød grød med fløde.
Katrine Feodor Frederiksen I know! Det var mere en slags mørbrad eller sådan noget? Og rødgrød med fløde ligner mere risengrød.. What even?
Try Dutch words! :-)
Yeah !
Nora Meester Yeah do Dutch!
Yes!
Nora Meester Jaaaa (yess) what are some very difficult words in dutch?? I know a good one! 's-hertogenbosch
Omg yes just do it already I swear to god please buzzfeed we beg you 😣
This is actually so entertainment to watch
Amazing to boost that self-confidence when u just got a bad grade in Danish class
Try Danish food next. It's delicious.
In case of doubt, put a hot potato in in mouth, and try to pronounce again.
Success guaranteed. Regards, Iceland.
Very funny jajajajajajaja
+Mathias Densen Køhler (Denmark) well I've been to Denmark every year from 1 grade ( I'm Norwegian) and I personally love the Danish language
+I'm Phan! Trash #1 okay yay!!!!
Well, a lot of you still speak Danish too along with your own language so it must not be that bad, hahaha :P
- Greetings and lots of love from Denmark :)
az929292 yup.
-hello from a fellow Dane
Det her er så sjovt at se som dansker (this is so fun to watch as someone who is danish) og jeg elsker når en af dem siger "this kind of reminds me of calculus" (noget med matematik tror jeg) (and i love when one of them says "this kind of reminds me of calculus" (something to do with math i think🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰

Jeg spiser edderkops. Sorry, I'm not good with pronouns and interjections.

I'm learning danish and swedish, and they are not very difficult languages, guys.
Claudia Jocelyn Flores Aguilera
Ja, jeg lærer også dansk, og det er egentlig ikke så svært som nogle mennesker tror det er :P
Ibland lär jag mig till och med svenska (I'm sure I messed up the word order there), men mitt svenska är definitivt inte så god som mitt danska.
Anders Dahl Well, I'm from Mexico but I think I'm bilingual because I can speak and write in english very well, and I can understand it. I also learning other languages like, Danish, Swedish, Irish, German (It's very difficult to me), French, Italian, Portugese,Turkish (very difficult, too) and Dutch, because I love knowing many cultures and I'd like to travel around the world.
ZL123 Hallå, Jag talar bättre svenska än danska, och jag älskar att besöka i Sverige. Jeg kan ikke tale meget godt dansk (It is how what it say?) and yes, svenska är så god som mit danska. But I prefer swedish, because is one of my favorite languages. Sorry for the mistakes, pero apenas los estoy dominando.
Claudia Jocelyn Flores Aguilera Your danish is good! Keep it up. :)
Anders Dahl Deutsch ist bestimmt schwerer als Dänisch, glaube ich.
So im from Demark and this was fun😆🇩🇰
0:00 Ah yes. Danish pastry which is actually from Wien in Austria and not Danish at all.
hate that we know everything about the us... but they know absolutely nothing about other countries
Yeah, every other country(almost) learns about the Us, and the world. The us only learns about the us..
***** Uhm, i´m sorry but i don´t really understand what you said?
***** Oh that´s okay ahah
I am American and I speak Danish and live in Denmark, also I love learning about other countries. Please do not stereotype a country that is more than five times the size of yours. Its like stereotyping Europe. Doesnt work.
Madeleine Johansen im danish and i speak english. they also teach german, french and spanish in school. my friend in school knows 5 languages. almost all danes speak english, but how many from the us speak danish? just the danes living there. im not saying that ppl from the us should leand all languages in the world, but maybe they should learn about culture thats not their own. like we do in all other countries.
when I moved to Denmark a few days ago this reminded me that I will have to learn how to pronounce all of these and MORE 😤
Valentina Lovendahl haha lol how long have u been in denmark now?
Can you speak fluent danish yet?
Random Balkan Guy No not even close 😂
Nahso Pro 2 weeks and 5 days
Valentina Lovendahl ohh i havee been in Denmark for 6 years
