And while I speak three languages, I’ve tried Danish and it is the absolute most difficult one for me to pronounce the words. I’m so bad I end up laughing at myself! Keep up these great videos, guys. And good luck speaking the language!

In the States it's all one age limit for all - buying, drinking, or even just being in possession of any type of alcohol is 21+ (which seems crazy). Thanks for helping us to understand it better 😀

I am Danish, I have never been offended by anyone mispronouncing words here and I don't understand why anyone does. Danish is a simple language in its written form, but one of the hardest languages in the world to speak because of how difficult the words are to pronounce.

@Finderup16 3 года назад

Regarding the flag, I think it's worth mentioning that we have "flag days". For instance, if it's the queen's birthday, the whole country puts out flags by the streets or on busses. It's a national celebration. 🇩🇰🇩🇰

@thesteelrodent1796 Год назад

and you're not allowed to keep the flag up whenever you feel like it. The flag may only be up between sunrise and sunset on special occasions, like birthdays and other celebrations. During funerals and times of mourning the flag is flown on half mast, but first it is raised to the top to honour the flag and then lowered to the halfway point - no matter how tall your flagpole or mast is. If you want to fly flags from other countries you must always have Dannebrog in a more prominent position, this means Dannebrog must be on a taller flagpole, or if all your flagpoles are the same height, then the Dannebrog must be bigger than the other flags. Cutting up a Dannebrog flag (like to turn it into clothing), or otherwise deliberately damaging it in anyway (like setting it on fire or putting holes in it) is blasphemous and equivalent to treason. These rules are all set in law - it's literally called the flag law - and thus you can be fined (which has happened) if you don't treat the flag with proper respect.

@KarinaSmuleSinger Год назад

And we have Flagsdays on, Valdemar day, and Pinse and Easter as well. And not at least for our Soldiers, both the Falling once and them whom come back home. We can put up the flag from sunrise to sunset🇩🇰

Fun Fact. regarding H.C Andersens fairytales, they are (or at least used to be) the only fairytale writer from europe acknowledged by the CCP in China and used to be mandatory reading in their schools, making his fairytales by far the most known in the world, purely because 1 billion chinese have read his fairytales :) The little mermaid is so famous there, that China rented her for about half a year, and transported the statue to china and back like 10 years ago.

And I ask them if we're gonna do the screaming thing, and I'm shocked to hear nobody ever heard of this tradition. But I talked them into it, and it was very half hearted. My dumb ass did not realize how poor taste that was at the occasion until months later. Though I think the kid enjoyed it. He's more than fine now, by the way.

Hi guys - love the video. Now, here is another interesting fact about Denmark that you may add in the future: There is clean drinking water in every water tap in Denmark! Most countries in the world does not have that, not even in the EU. As you know, in America they add Chlorine to the water which is an awful thing to do seen from a Danes perspective.

@RobeTrotting 3 года назад

Thank you, Martin. We're so glad you enjoyed the video :) We knew that the water quality in Denmark was great (even though it's a little chalky in Copenhagen). That's super interesting, and amazing, that it's safe from every tap in the country. It makes sense with how much Denmark invests in all types of infrastructure. Sadly, America could learn a bit from Denmark in that regard - it's hard to believe some cities in the USA have poor or unsafe water quality.

@_-martin-_ 3 года назад

@@RobeTrotting Keep up the good work. Yes, how much chalk is in the water determines to which degree the water is "hard" or "soft". Either way, it is 100% safe to drink tap water everywhere in DK. Access to clean water is important for good health. Rumour is that the lethal water situation in Flint is happening in thousands of cities in America - that is a real tragedy. That is what happens when you do not pay nor invest taxes in infrastructure :(

@@_-martin-_ Thank you so much, and we will keep the videos coming :) The only places we really notice the hard water is the shower of course, and in our drinks after an ice cube from the tap water melts haha. Flint is such a sad story because it didn't have to happen that way and it's being repeated all over the country. We really prefer the Danish system for the overall feeling of community, empathy, and a collective society. I couldn't imagine a city in DK having unsafe water without massive outrage.

@_-martin-_ 3 года назад

@@RobeTrotting True, it would never happen that way in Denmark for many reasons, including regulation and the fact it would be considered a public disaster. Clearly, with proper regulation the Flint event could have been avoided. I feel very empathetic to the American people and what happened in Flint really pisses me off. Especially when president Obama visited Flint and asked for a glass of water and took a zip of the water and basically said everything is fine and they should stop worrying. Meanwhile kids are being brain damaged by lead poisoning and folks are dying by increased cancer rates. That is just outright irresponsible! Sorry, I'll calm down now.

@RobeTrotting 3 года назад

@@_-martin-_ No need to calm down, it's a complete outrage - we totally agree with you. America is much better than that and it's sad to say, but politically there's almost no way out. There's so much dirty money in the political system that it would be considered corrupt if it weren't (unfortunately) perfectly legal. The interest of the people is rarely the first concern of our politicians. No country's system is perfect, but Flint is something that shouldn't happen in a "rich country".

Here's a suggestion for you, if you haven't done it yet: Visit Fredericia on July 5th and 6th. These two dates are of huge historical significance, and are actually celebrated in Fredericia with parades, music, festivals and all kinds of cool stuff. So why are those dates so important? In 1849, Denmark was at war with the Prussians, and Fredericia was actually under siege by the Prussians. But on the night of July 5th to July 6th, the Norwegian General Olaf Rye led a charge against the Prussians, and won, even though he fell during that battle. The Danish army managed to push back the Prussians, and eventually turned the war around. This was, by the way, the first time in history that a besieged army ever managed to push back and win against the enemy besieging them. So you can probably understand why Fredericia makes such a huge deal out of July 5th and July 6th, even now, 170 years later. It's not something a lot of people outside of Fredericia even know about today, and even in Fredericia, most people don't actually know why we celebrate those days... But you guys seem to be very open-minded and interested in learning about Danish culture and history, so I would definitely recommend you visit Fredericia on those days, if you ever get the chance, and maybe talk to some of the history-experts at the place 😊 Also, another related fun-fact: One of Fredericia's most iconic landmarks is called "Landsoldaten", which is a statue of a soldier from the war of 1849, standing with one foot on a small cannon, holding an olive-branch in his right hand above his head. But here's the kicker - Nobody knows who the soldier is. It's supposedly the first known statue in the world of a nameless soldier, rather than a prominent figure like a general or a king. Which in itself is kinda interesting. And yes, I'm originally from Fredericia myself, so I may be a little biased, but I just really think it's a shame that so few people actually know about these events.

Danish scientists have been heavily involved in shaping modern western society the way it is. Both with our progressive mindset (which isn't just a Danish virtue, our Scandinavian neighbours are as progressive in as many ways as we are). You've already mentioned some of our most important philosophers and poets/writers as well as perhaps the most well known scientist (Niels Bohr). But did you know that Blutooth is also a danish invention? And I think you failed to mention Arne Jakobsen the world famous designer. Oh yeah, this is a bit of a weird one. Jacob August Riis, a journalist, reformator, photographer and lecturer. A dane who journeyed to the US and became a citizen there. He died there in 1914 and his death drew a lot of headlines in the US newspapers because he was the man that Theodore Roosewelt had described as the ideal American.

We actually have a video coming out in the next week about Jelling, the Jelling Stones and Harald Bluetooth. The invention, however, is not Danish - only the name.

They built on technology developed by the Austrian actress Hedy Lamarr, who laid the groundwork for wifi and Bluetooth (she worked on spread spectrum radio technology that the US navy adopted in WWII).
