    I think the dt at the end is more like a T sound... Right?

    Glad to be a freak

    Tak Plainy (I wouldve thought it meant yes rather than thanks, had you not said so )... Btw your interpretation of what i said in icelandic is correct "Sorry, I don't speak Icelandic!"

    Questions: is the D pronounced like an English D or one like Spanish/Greek (δ)? And is the I generally like an "ee" sound in English (Romanian/Turkish i), or a short I like English/German? Or similar to the I in Turkish? (without a dot)...

    I do have a Danish keyboard, as well as everything else, just that I didn't enable it. I'm posting from my iPod everything is enabled on my computer but I turned off some keys on my iPod because I keep typing with the wrong alphabets (Cyrillic, Greek, Latin...) Lol

    So I pronounce the t? Thats what I meant, because I think d and g are silent when they're at the end of a word

    Wow I know this

    The d is prounced like the english D, except when its at the end of a word it becomes silent (i.e tag, led, you dont pronounce them)

    And the I is ee like you said!

    Plainy arent you proud of me?

    Uhmm.. Viva don't expect anyone to understand you when you write like that..
    How hard can it be to go a couple of posts back, I already told you to use aa instead of å, not a... and there's no such word as hvord..

    Lol since Danes are a very reticent people, they don't have many words of affection

    Skat (literally means treasure): Honey
    Søde: Sweetie
    Smukke: Gorgeous

    And that's pretty much it..

    Sorry: Undskyld

    Another thing Viva.. you should better write hva'så when you want to say what's up, cause it's slang just like in English (you wouldn't say what is up, right?) so either you'd have to write it that way or just use a more "formal" way of asking how are you doing, like: hvordan går det, that's better

    Hvordan: How
    Går: Is going
    Det: It

    Hva'saa??

    A little bit off topic, everytime I tell a turk harika dimi I get the, 'thats the street version/not proper turkish one' treatment I'm like I know its slang!! Thats why I'm kinda sceptical with learning slang now

    No way, you have to have more, like habibti, hayati, rohi, albi, the whole sha bang Nej??

    Undskylde? Looks hard
