      I really don't get Danish writing. Why write 'dig' when you say 'dei'? As the latter makes sense to me. Frisians know 'dei' as 'you'. And 'hej'... It's pronounced as 'hai' so why not write it as such? Or 'goddag'. 'Goddei' (good day) makes more sense. Also, the 'd' is not pronounced in 'god' (good) so why write it down? 'Godmorgen' literally transcribes in: 'gomo'en' so why not write it like that?

      @@RudydeGroot in dig is a flat j,g sound and the same in goddag and in prober danish "if you learned long time ago" words are pronounced in full. newer Danish like many other linguistics that keep snapping words shorter, forgetting the real spoken words and meanings.

      @eugenelazarev7820 4 роки тому +8

      It relates to many European languages as well. For example, in English we do not pronounce the "b" in the word "debt" but we write it down. Other examples can be island (where "s" is unvoiced)/receipt (where "p" is unvoiced), aisle ("s" is not pronounced) and so on, but we still use them when spelling, right? It is not as easy as it looks like to rewrite the history of the whole language.

      2 different categories. You speak a romance language, Danish is a Germanic language. There are a few things that are similar to the French language like a few words. But it will mostly be a new language for you. If you know a good amount of English (Which I am assuming do) then you'll get a small headstart since there are many words that are the same in English or similar.
