Jeg ved ikke helt hvad jeg skal sige lige i denne samtale, som jeg jo springer ind i dansk er jo ikke svært for mig da det er mit modersmål
^^
I am proud of my language... it kinda makes me a little 'taller' when i hear someone is interested in my country or language whee

E.M.O.T.I.O.N.L.E.S.S I find Danish harder than French.
Learning it right now.
However alot of the people say
It is easier than French. Easier than french!? Huney, Danish is said to be one of the hardest European languages, because a lot of the words only resemble the northern tongue. French is more alike to the English tongue, which should make it easier to learn.
Danish has unlogical grammar, unlogical pronouncation and very hard pronounciation at that, too. Not to mention, unlike most languages, Danish is kinda monotone and doesn't have a sing-song to it like, say, Norwegian.
It is, however, much easier to learn once you know Norwegian.
But easier than french? Maybe if you have learned french first, but... No, I couldn't imagine it being easier. Oh, og velkommen til guilden, Ab.

Abusive Mana Det tror jeg på
I hear from many new comers here that they have a hell of a hard time trying to learn our language X.X;; i almost pity them But i feel proud of it You know the funny part? I know a french girl. Her first language is english (Her father, I believe, is british, so they taught her that language first), then came french and because her mother is Danish, she's now learning danish in a danish Højskole in Hadsten, Jylland. She's almost fluen in it already, but I'm guessing it's because of her language abilities. I mean, when you're without an accent in two different languages that resembles each other, a third shouldn't be that hard to master.
The Schools are ridiculously called Danish Folk High Schools in English. Makes me want to gag... It takes in a lot of foreign students, too, and has special classes for international students. Link for any interessted: Hadsten HøjskoleI just got back from it, and even though there's the language barrier, you become friends with everyone and when you go home after your stay, every one (but me) is crying. Teachers, students the like. Everybody is crying. It is a great place.
There are other schools like this around the country, but this is the one I went to for 18 weeks.

[Somebody] Is swedish easier or harder to learn that Danish then? I am repeatedly told Swedish and Norwegian are both easier, although I have not tried to learn it. Apparently the pronunciation and spelling relate to each other better (which I find easy to believe as Danish really sucks for that). I once overheard a conversation on a college campus between two stereotypical American frat boys with backwards baseball caps, which can be summarized to the following. frat boy 1 Dude, I gotta go to Swedish class frat boy 2 Dude, why are you taking Swedish? frat boy 1 Cuz Swedish is frikkin' easy, dude. frat boy 2 No way, dude. Everyone takes Spanish because it's easy. frat boy 1 Dude. Swedish is, like, way easy. Easier than Spanish. Seriously, dude. I'm not sure how reliable of a source that is, but I can tell you I've never heard anything similar about Danish wink

[Somebody] Is swedish easier or harder to learn that Danish then? Most people say it is easier to learn danish, but the rare few doesn't. The thing with swedish is that it is a combination of so many languages, which might make it a bit easier to learn. Personally, I think swedish is harder than danish. I have a hard time understanding both the written and spoken parts of swedish. During the past 4 months, I have spent time with a girl who came from the czech republic. She found swedish easier to learn, than danish. Abusive Mana Isnt that like an Efterskole?
Jeg gik på en efterskole i 2005/2006 Kinda, yeah. Except on a Højskole it's not so much about the classes, but finding yourself and figure out what you want with your life. You grow a lot there and get a lot of great friends and stuff.

Efterskole/Højskole is like a borading school. You live there, you have your classes there etc. But the thing about it is, that unlike a normal High School, you have responsebility to meet to your classes and keep your room clean. You are also treated as an adult, a thing you very rarely see in ordinary schools here in Denmark. It makes you grow and see life and the people in said life in a completely new way. It also helps build up your confidence. Mostly because you cant just stay home from school. The same people are going to be around you all the time. 24/7. It creates an amazing atmpsphere and if two people dont get along well, they'll just have to work on that and not get on each others cases. It is really quite spectacular.
Efterskole is like junior high. Its mostly from grades 9-10, but there are many with only 10th grade, and some which start already at 8th greade.
Højskole is for any one. Ther agelimit, though, is 17½ for the youngest. A lot of people use a stay in a højskole as a place to meet new people, grow and find out what further education they want. The danish Military has a special agreement with the schools. When soldiers come home from Iraque or Iran or places there have been war and other things that might have left them forgotten with how to live in a "normal" society, or just the danish society. They go through a test when they come home, and if it shows that they need to learn to function in the danish society, they will most often be sent to a Højskole to be eased back in.
