When it comes to pronounciation and listening comprehension Danish is maybe the most difficult European language. Talk about kylling, kelling and killing; ord and år; hul, hjul and jul; gul, gud, guld, and gulv.

As a German who has been learning Danish for about six years now (while not living in DK) I find it relatively easy to read Danish texts like newspaper articles. But oral communication still ends up in misunderstandings…

BTW, I would have known how to use grey “purse”. But only from personal experience. The meaning of pung as a description of your private parts was new to me, too.

Pas på din pung!
