Danish is a horrible language please dont do that. You have 4 nordic languages to pic from and you not only pick the worst one but also the one thats probably one of the worst languages of all time. Lotr and star trek trying to create the most disgusting sounding languages failed because danish was already a thing. Danish is so revolting that you start vomitting from it when you hear it and danish people think youre just replying to them.

Accurate though. Danish sounds legit like super drunk Swedish at a distance, and uncanny valley up close to anyone speaking Swedish or Norwegian or German.

[-] Bumblefumble@lemm.ee 25 points 6 months ago

There are way more than 4 Nordic languages to pick from. Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, Faroese, Icelandic, Greenlandic, Sami. Still Danish is of course the worst one.

Ahh i didnt count faroe and i only thought of the north germanic ones. Interesting mistake because i live in sweden and i myself am a finno-ugric speaker by being a native hungarian speaker.

I'm sure there are more than that. Älvdalska comes to mind. Isn't Sami a group of languages rather than a singular distinct language?

Absolutely disgusting

Then again, US-American English is not exactly the most sophisticated sounding language either.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

English is considered one of the hardest languages to learn because we have rules. And then we don't use them. It doesn't help that it's actually something like a 5 language mash up.

[-] Voyajer@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago

The upside is you can speak in the most broken English imaginable and with patience you'll be able to get much of your point across

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago

If English were one of the hardest languages to learn, it would not be the most common second language worldwide. It is a difficult language to master, but we barely conjugate verbs, have only remnants of a case system, and no grammatical gender.

The hardest parts about English are the spelling and the advanced weird cases, like “I will have done that by tonight,” but those are not things that the standard language learner has to care about. It’s perfectly fine to ignore all the rules that don’t inhibit communication, so no ESL speaker needs to learn about not splitting infinitives or ending sentences with prepositions (unless they want to do academic writing in the arts, I guess).

That's the most succinct explanation I've seen of what's wrong with English

I'd rather learn Danish than Finnish (also, I count 6 Nordic languages: Danish, Swedish, Finnish, the two Norwegian languages of which one is a Danish dialect, and Icelandic, plus there are surely a few minority languages, probably in the far north or so).

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 months ago

As another commenter said you also have faroe, sami and a lot of languages in greenland. The two norwegians dont really count as two different languages. Calssifying north germanic languages can be a bit hard because its a language continuum.

[-] v_krishna@lemmy.ml 5 points 6 months ago

Two Norwegians are actually like 14 different languages. I had a girlfriend from Trondheim, i had learned "nynorsk" while living in Sognogfjordane and had a much easier time understanding people in Aarhus where we lived vs her dialect.

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

If this is all I have to worry about. Then I'm all in.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Too late English already dragged Danish into the alley. We're getting some new words! Woooooooo!

[-] lime@feddit.nu 4 points 6 months ago

you're gonna get their pronunciation too and it's going to bleed over into the rest of the language. might as well throw away your hard consonants right now, it's all rødgrød med fløde from now on

Hey Danes, if murica ever invades, just teach your farmers guerilla tactics. It's like a cheat code against them.

Danish Cookies for everyone!!

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 12 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The US could never win from Denmark. Every tank or plane they destroy, Denmark just rebuilds as they are made from Lego.

Honestly, I have 15 years of naval experience, the Danish are one of the best trained and most modern navies I've ever seen or worked with (together with Germany and Norway) while the Americans nearly shot down their own helicopter by mistake, MULTIPLE TIMES, if it wasn't for an allied unit to intervene at the last moment like:

"This is US warship, hostile contact incoming, final warning read, opening fire."

"This is NL warship, hold your fire! wtf guys, did we miss an exercise or something? Are you aware you're about to open fire on your own helo right now?"

"This is US warship, hostile contact now friendly, out."

I've never seen a more incompetent navy out there, and I've worked with Italian, French and Peruvian navies too so that says a lot.

They may look impressive, with all their tech and carriers, but remember: They fought a 20 year war in Afghanistan against illiterate nomads with 60 year old kalashnikovs who live in caves, and they lost.

Hey now. The US also lost a war against jungle villagers, and then later started losing wars against inanimate objects like drugs.

Nobody wins a Lego war. You think that unexploded munitions left behind from conventional wars are bad, imagine condemning generations to come to live in a world where you could step on a stray Lego brick at any time.
