      Danish + Swedish ( very similar, 85% the same, just spelled and pronounced somewhat differently - and with very similar grammars in most important respects ) will be like a walk in the park compared to Icelandic 😂 - and somewhat similar to English in several ways.

  • @Bjowolf2
    @Bjowolf2 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    But you English speakers already speak "Danish" every single day without even knowing it - lots of basic words in Danish are very similar to their English counterparts, and there are also several grammatical similarities, so when we start learning English in Denmark ( + Norway & Sweden with their very similar languages ), it often feels as if we by magic already 'know" a simplistic older core English in advance and then "just" need to fill in the gaps and climb a few hurdles here and there.
    So learning English is almost second nature to us, and on top of that it also helps a lot that TV-programmes and films in foreign languages - mainly in English - are ALWAYS subtitled here in Scandinavia, never dubbed, so that we are usee to hearing all sorts of spoken English on a daily basis from an early age.
