1 day agoThe languages are often comparable, we share some of the same sounds; the letters are a little different, but sound the same. In Danish “Æ” resembles Swedish/Finnish/Estonian “Ä”.
While Danish have “Å” it is sounds a little different
To give you an example where the letter “Æ” makes sense, could be in the word “exactly”. It sounds like it should have been spelled “Æxactly” because it’s not really a true “E” sound. It really is just A+E and is kinda pronounced that way. :-)
Lol the pronunciation of ikzaaklie, does sound of how we say it - our word for it is Præcis. I’ve been to Holland a couple of times and sometimes I understand what you guys are saying, sometimes definitely not. But I imagine Dutch is actually not far from our language 🍻
