"De reserverer deres plads."

Translation: They reserve their place.

[Florlice]

Personally I'd use 'their spot' as well.

[Calen19526]

That's what I used and it masked me wrong.

Why not book their place?

[MouriceWan]

In grammatical English it would make sense but not in danish.. when you wanna use "book" in English, it translates to "bestil" in danish.. and if you wanna use it in this context "bestil deres plads".. it would totally make no sense to a Dane..

[ilmolleggi]

What I meant is: "isn't to book a better translation of reservere here?"

[Evlanguage]

Not necessarily as one can reserve a spot, a seat at a restaurant, or their place in line. One does not book their place in line or book their spot so it would not necessarily always translate to book. If this sentence included a table for two, book would be an acceptable answer.

Hope that helps!

why is 'places' not accepted? It is used sometimes. Especially when they are different places.

Is "sin" only used with the singular third person? Or can it also be used with "de"?

[Florian866500]

"Sin" is only for singular third person afaik. The correspobdung word for "de" is "deres".

Thanks. So I guess Slavic languages are the only ones that use the reflexive pronoun for all persons and numbers.
