Welcome

Learning a language is a marathon, not a sprint. It does not happen overnight, or by just memorising lots of phrases or watching movies and expect to become fluent without any real effort understanding the language patterns and pronunciacion. You will quickly be disappointed, overwhelmed, and you will give up. You also can't learn a new language with "just 15 minutes per day in two weeks".

At Native Danish, you learn just like you would in a real language school and prepare for the language exams. We have prepared a test for you to know which level to start at. Since there is no one watching you, be true to yourself and only answer what you know.

Here, we focus on the two most important things: language patterns and pronunciation. Those are the building block you need to master in order to become fluent like a native.

Language Patterns​

When you blindly memorize phrases from booklets, not only they don't stuck, but you are wasting time.

Our brain works by connecting the dots. It is in a constant search for connecting the patterns. Without understanding how that phrase is constructed you will not be able to memorise it well, create a new similar one or understand it.

Pronunciation​

Officially, the danish language has nine vowels. Unofficially, combining all the dialects, you can hear almost 40 different vowel sounds. This creates a problem for newcomers.

  1. We are recording most of the lection's content so you can get used to how the words are pronounced. When you find a speaker like this: - press it to listen how the text is pronunciated.

  2. You will have every explanation translated. One of the chalenges when learning danish from books is that everything is written in danish, and you need to translate by yourself.

Getting Started​

If you study the language in Denmark, you will start with one of the following paths depending on your education, level of English and any knowledge of the Danish language.
