"Hej, jeg er en dreng."

Translation: Hello, I am a boy.

[mathcore]

this is exactly how i intend to introduce myself when i visit denmark.

[JaneilsonHD]

I'll have to learn more, couse I intend to say Hello, you have to discover if you want to know if I'm a boy!

[ThisIsMeNotYou]

That would translate to "Hej, du bliver nødt til at finde ud af om du vil vide om jeg er en dreng" good luck with the pronounciation ;)

LOL

[deguo]

So just to clarify, hej is hello and hej hej is bye?

[bjarkehs]

Hej = Hi. But if you know ciao then it is used like that. It can both be a greeting and a goodbye, but the sentence usually dictates which one. Also, generally 1 hej = hello, 2 hejs = goodbye.

[GeniusJack]

Yay! Just like ciao. I love Indo-European languages!

[deguo]

Tak!

So is this the thumb rule in all Scandinavian languages? I know in Swedish bye is 'hej da' which is literally 'hi then'

[Icytree]

I actually dont know Swedish. But in Norsk, the 'bye bye' is 'Har det' which means ' Have it' actually. Also 'Har det bra' means 'Goodbye'.

[LadySeabrooke]

It's "hej hej" in Swedish, too.

[MattyWeenieMoop]

You're correct!

[ClassiDuo]

But my mom won't admit it.

[SantiAnnd]

Just in case you talk to the Danish Professor Oak

[AlexisGrimm7]

Would then "Hi, i am a boy" not be correct?

[ElakVarg]

Why not? It was accepted.
