    I'm native Ukrainian and Russian speaker, have learnt English by myself and now just started to learn Danish. After three days I am going to Denmark and what I've got for sure is that I won't be ready to speak with Danes or with anybody else in this beautiful language. By the way it really has certain familiarity with English but only to an extent, because for me to write down what I hear and even understand is like a go down to hell and come back alive. Hei to all the Danes I convinced that you are awesome people, Ukraine is loving you!

      I like your style of writing.
      As a native English speaker, I can see how Danish and English have a common ancestry. Some of the phrases, when spoken in Danish, are slight alterations of the English equivalent. The writing, not as much, but still I can sometimes guess what written Danish means as someone whos knows no Danish at all.

    I speak native spanish and learn English by my self. The best way to start learning a new language is trying to be in touch with it as much as you can. REPEAT OVER AND OVER. Any language is as difficult to learn as much as your mind considers it.

    I decided I will learn Danish purely for a self challenge. Denmark is an amazing place by the way.
    I've learned English allby myself, and I had a fucking hard time when it came to pronunciation. It seems Danish pronunciation is at least as hard as English. Yes, English-speaking natives, most of you don't remotely realize how unbelievably hard your language is to draw the correct pronunciation from what is written, in comparison to literally any other European language.
    So pay some respect to Danish, please.
    I will come back here and watch this video a thousand times. Danish pronunciation is giving me a serious headache, but I survived English before.

      Maarten- As someone who speaks Swedish and Norwegian, as well as English and enough German to have a short conversation, I agree! Danish is a strange language. I can read Danish almost as well as Swedish and Norwegian, and Norwegian and Swedish sound similar. Though, I must be honest, Swedish is the coolest and I prefer Swedish. Danish sounds like 'a hot potato in the throat' as my Norwegian friend Arild said. He was right. If you wanna learn any of the Scandinavian languages, learn Swedish dude, definitely the easiest and most similar to Dutch and German.

      @@mrmatt1165 In regards to pronunciation, I agree he'll have a less stressfull time if he choses Swedish or Norwegian over Danish. I however can't find a single source which states that Swedish should be more related to German than Danish? (Or Norwegian either.) All three languages are north germanic, hence they are somewhat equally distant related to German being a west germanic language. (What I found in discussion forums and also thought myself.) Should Swedish for some reason have a slight advantage, I believe it would be highly insignificant anyway. Choosing the language based on interest would be the most beneficial option in long term, since his motivation would presumably be higher.

    I've been learning danish for over a month on Duolingo, and while it helped me grasp the writing of the language, there is only so much it can do to help me with speaking it since I tend to not speak too often to begin with. I do have a textbook where I wrote down most of the words I've learned of the danish language thus far, but I need to organize it. I write the word, and below it the pronounciation of said word so I can properly say it out loud.
    As for my actual experience learning it, as a french person, I'd say it's comparable to english and german in terms of phrase structures, though there are many subtilities I haven't learned just yet. Not having to conjugate verbs all the times helps a lot though ! Also, my main difficulty with my learning is being able to differentiate some words when the same sound is spoken twice in a row. For example, I had this phrase in Duolingo : "Hvad spiser vi i dag", but I heard "Hvad spiser vi dag" instead and got a wrong answer. Now, I'm fairly sure the "vi i" part is compressed when that phrase is spoken out loud, but writing it down is another story ! At any rate, I'll make sure to bingewatch the videos you have this week-end so I can get a proper grasp on this language.

    I am hungarian, and I honestly find the danish accent quite easy to a point. Of course, there are some things I may have trouble with, like the soft "d", but I am getting used to that aswell. But basically the point is, many letters sound like our hungarian letters. Like
    ø = ő, å = á/ó
    æ = é, y = y, d = n (lowkey, that's how the soft d was like for me at first), etc.
    So I have an easier time learning the danish accent and overall the language. And also thats why the "Øhh.." sounds just like our "Ööö" so that's a relief I won't have a problem with that in Denmark and I will be able to say our language's "uhm".

      "Slow" version is the phonetic version, when we talk slowly we really emphasise every syllable and letter,
      Notice the word "Politiet" (Police)
      When speaking slow; we say Po Li Ti Et, fully phonetic, all of the syllables are clear and so are the letters
      When speaking fast they can blend together, Poltd, Po ltd, ending with a soft D, we skip the vowels and just pronounce the consonants

    My first time in Denmark I thought I've never gonna learned Danish for its impossible pronunciation,as my previous employer who's now Consul General in USA Anne Dorte Riggelsen said that your language is a secret 😂, I am proud to say that I learned Danish pretty well,I didnt go any language school..Through my interest and curiosity also with the help of the kids I took care Danish has never been hard..The first word I learned is brød..And its feels like I won the lottery when I pronouced it😂 specially when Danish people praise me and said "oh your very good in pronunciation" and in this video I can say,I say the words perfectly right before the voice over said it..

    Its like Norwegian read with a French accent but no vowel harmony. A lot of the sounds feel nasally and rounded like French except the Ls. The word “rich” sounds similar when thinking about it now Fr vs Dnsk. German wont save me now but apparently French can, go figure!

    Bokmål norsk is much more handy than danish. In fact, bokmål is also danish, only it is spoken in Norway and is easier to pronounce.
    if I study bokmål, think I will also understand danish.
    Nynorsk only after I can speak conversational bokmål and deal with the grammar of the language.

      @@Danishmastery Hej där! Hur har du det? Håller inte med dig där, beklagar. (Disagree with you there, sorry) Uttalen är mer än lite märkligt. Jag är en amerikansk kille som talar svenska och norska (men jag föredrar svenska över norska), och jag har träffat en dansk kille i USA och förstod inte vad han sade när han talade på danska. Men i text det går fint med för mig med att förstå danska. Vill inte vara ett rövhål...som jag faktist älskar ni skandinaver...
      Men min norska vän var korrekt, han sade att danska låter som en 'het potatis i halsen' eller 'gröt i munnen'. Kan hålla med där med min norska vän, beklagar som helvete att säga. (Inget illa menat-No offense) Låter raspigt och torr, som tyska är, eftersom ni danskar är direkt ovanför Tyskland. Han verkade som en vänlig nog kille, men jag förstod inte något när han snackat. Kan kanske förvänta några våldsamma kommentarer från danskar från denna kommentaren. Jag har en Windows XP bärbar dator med ett danskt tangentbord installerad på den, förresten.
