No indeed, and you absolutely won’t hear me complain about it. I’m not religious, but if I had been I’d have said ‘bless you’. Instead, I’m just going to personally thank you for fighting the good fight. Keep it up! You’re one of the good ones.
Hopefully, one day we’ll be able to enjoy a nice BBQ together.
Ah, thank you. Honestly I’m already formulating an exit plan; if midterms aren’t administered fairly this year then all is lost.
Denmark is at the top of my list of places to try to live, but migrating permanently there seems like a challenge. I’m already studying Danish though, just in case.
We’d be fortunate to have you, I’m sure. Please feel free to DM me if you need help. Pronunciation - which is probably the hardest part - is going to be tricky to assist with, but I can certainly help with grammar and spelling. Don’t worry too much about pronunciation though - most Danes speak English perfectly well, and nobody is likely to hold relying on that against you until you can get up to speed.
Thanks! I appreciate that and I’ll keep that in mind. I’m using Babbel, which has native speaker recordings, so I definitely understand the challenge of pronunciation but I think I’m slowly getting it.
It only goes up to A2 though, so if I ever make it to Denmark I’ll have to use Prøve i Dansk and maybe attend a language school.
I’ll DM you if I have a question I can’t find an answer to!
It’s a pity that DR has restricted access to their content for international visitors. I’ve had a few British colleagues tying to learn Danish, and watching the news was a good way to get exposure to received pronunciation and a wide vocabulary.
Nevertheless, while I’m not always on Lemmy, whenever I’m around I’ll be happy to answer what questions I can.

Yeah, I had to watch the nytårstale on youtube because it was region locked on DR.
I also wish I could stream Danish media, but the Scandinavian streaming services are also region locked
