Keep at it. Speak as much as you can, if any Danes switch over to English keep speaking Danish. Forget about trying to find rules for when to say et or en, there isn’t any. When it came to sounds, I just tried to match with how English sometimes sounds. When a word ends in ede like billede, its close to an English th sound. Stuff like that. Read newspapers and find a good TV show to watch, watch the news even.
You’ll get there. 😊
I have been here for 25 years. My Danish ex’s dad helped a lot, he gave me a reason to learn otherwise we couldn’t communicate.
Jeg lærer, it’s definitely challenging but I’ve got a friend who is helping me learn pronunciation by reading flyers and stuff. I figure that if I’ll be able to pick up words and grammar this way, and I’ll be trying out babbel during some work rotations to actually learn.
I don’t foresee myself having 25 years to learn, but with the way things are going back home… I may qualify for asylum within another year or two- and that will give me a reason to learn instead of just getting along with English on a skilled worker visa.
