They couldn't do worse than the current leadership, lets do it
I would welcome the Danes to takeover the USA.
I...fucking...love it!!!
Bring on the new Danelaw!
Hey Danes, if murica ever invades, just teach your farmers guerilla tactics. It's like a cheat code against them.
Is it a charcoal gruerilla or propane guerilla?
Eh, I was was more thinking about silverback guerilla 🤓
Danish Cookies for everyone!!
America is now called Greater Vinland.
Sounds like some kind of saga
Haha but that name came from history.
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.
hittade svensken
Good! Only 4 more scalps and you've earned a Pripps Blå and a can of snus.
This post brought to you by the government of Sweden
(agreed though)
Come to think of it, maybe we can force them to speak Danish as a form of humiliation? You know, like Make America Danish (derogatory)?
Lol maybe
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
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?

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.
Are there still any phrases that Finnish people say that you can clearly understand?

Too late English already dragged Danish into the alley. We're getting some new words! Woooooooo!
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
Oh we'll probably add an ia ending on a few of those and throw some extra vowels in for no reason at all. (Looking at you Bible Belt)
i don't think that's physically possible
bear in mind she's the prime minister speaking officially, so she's actively trying to speak slowly and clearly
If this is all I have to worry about. Then I'm all in.
Then again, US-American English is not exactly the most sophisticated sounding language either.
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.
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
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
Could pick the one that sounds like elvish but no let's pick the one that sounds like mouth full of potatoes
Absolutely disgusting
