"vrede", which means "peace" in Dutch, means "anger" in Danish (probably not pronounced the same way, but the spelling is the same.)

In English phonetics it's pronounced vrayduh

In Dutch, yes. In Danish it is more like incomprehensible guttural noises

Danish person here. Pot; meet kettle.

It's pronounced "vreðe" in Danish.

I understand that you're being mean out of frustration because your entire country is still suffering from that throat disease you call a language, so I'll let these little jabs slide, but it's not a healthy way to deal with it. Best wishes from Denmark🤗🥔🥔

Volgens mij dacht hij of zij dat je Deens bedoelde

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Als iemand Deens kan kunnen ze toch afleiden dat dit dan waarschijnlijk die andere taal is die ze vernoemden... Zo'n droge "no" gaat er wel over 😄

Ja, maar je moet wel bedenken dat dit het internet is en dat mensen niet heel hard nadenken voor dat ze dinges schrijven :P
