So we learnt numbers until tusind (I am sure you guessed right that it means thousand ;) ) and a plenty of words connected with food - kinds of fruits, vegetable, mælkeprodukter ;), meat and the basic conversation in the shop.
Some of the words are similar to English or German, therefore the written form is not difficult in some cases. However - the pronunciation! Oops, completely different!!! I think that is the most difficult thing about Danish language. We have to practice a lot;)
And the practical part came. Every group got a list of a few things which to buy in the shop. For instance our group had a task to buy:
- rugbrød (dark bread - it´s the basic of a typical Danish lunch - because the Danes eat cold lunch, the main meal is dinner then)
- mælk - at least three kinds including kærnemælk (=kefir). ( You can find different boxes of milk in Denmark: navy blue (3,5 % fat) milk, blue (1,5%), light blue (0,5%), but also grey milk (0,1%)-which is the cheapest, but horrible, it´s like white water.)
- spegepolse (salami)
- tomat
We went altoghether to Fakta and then to our teacher´s house to prepare it and EAT IT :). The best way how to experience real Danish lunch and try their various stuff (e.g. leverpostej and frikadeller (Danish liver pate and meat balls), yum yum! :)
We enjoyed this day very much. "Tak!"
