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

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 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
