Hey Prodigy^: How many languages do you speak?

I have a Danish friend who speaks English, German, norwegian, Danish, finish, and Dutch. Now that is impressive. But he said most Danes can speak many languages.

Denmark seem nice. Too bad the only thing I know about are the cookies. 🙂

How well does he speak them ???
and how old is he ?
 
hehe 🙂

well I can speak Danish, English (very good) and German (ok-ish). Plus I can understand Norwegian and Swedish, they're very alike Danish, with Norwegian being so close you'd mistake a Norwegian for being a bad Danish speller some times 😛

well, take an average high school guy and they'll be able to speak English very nicely, and a secondary language, German, French, or Spanish for example.....also, Danes (or say Scandinavians) are very good at adopting accents for other languages. This is funny - I don't mean to offend anyone, but some countries are just horrible at this. The French are a prime example (whad doo ju meen i dun speek gud engliiz?), and many other southern countries aren't very good at it either.....

It might be because we've gotten used to Scandinavian languages being unique to our own countries, so we've just had to learn other languages. English-speaking countries can take it with ease - if you know English you can always make your way around the Globe.....but MAN are they suck are speaking Scandinavian languages 😛 hehe

PS: lol cookies? 😀

that explains a lot 🙂
Probably the same relation between Spanish, Portuguese and Italian !
 
hehe ikke dårligt Pennstate..... 😛

Danish is a tough language to learn, I hear......there are many simple rules, but so many exceptions to the rules that it's amazing.....

goddag mit veninde (~goddag min veninde) = hello my friend (female friend) (hmm? 😛)

JEG indtale Dansk nuvel [prodigy (~jeg taler også dansk Prodigy^) = I speak danish too prodigy

hehe keep trying 😀 lol 😛
 
Well the reason Danes learn accents (such as english) so well is that both languages are in the same family. You get the same syllables, just in different locations. 🙂 No, a true test would be for you to have a fluent, real time conversation with someone speaking Mandarin Chinese, and someone speaking Latin. 😉
