"En and og en edderkop drikker vand."

Translation: A duck and a spider are drinking water.

[ckhadung]

it's cute to say "en and og en" fast.

[GeniusJack]

Whenever I listen to this lady speak, it's like my 2 year old nephew trying to tell me something.

[tu.8zPhLD72zzoZN]

This is a tongue twister for me.

[deactivated user]

I've heard Danish described as "drunk Swedish," so it's probably more naturally pronounced /nan an/.

[LukaJovic1]

A very useful phrase!

[DragaoRenascido]

It's funny and helps remember, but they surely could be teaching more useful phrases

[roomiccube]

It's not so much about the phrases, it's more about learning the structure of how to build a sentence. Having sometimes funny sentences helps me to remember the names of different animals too!

[geometry667721]

It does make learning the structures fun, occasionally a useful sentence would be appreciated though.

Og anden spiser edderkopen

[FionaOnDuoL]

Cool. So that is why Bilbo, in The Hobbit, calls a spider Attercop. It must be an old English word from Norse.

[James621331]

This has to be one of the weirdest sentences I've spoken in a while.

[scoubie]

isn't a duck -end not -en? This is confusing

[Robbadob]

Words can either be common (en) or neuter (et). And is an en-word: en and, anden, ænder. Where have you seen a word take -end? [2019/05/11]

[mijichu]

I cant pronouce this one at all

[CONNORSCUL3]

and the spider bites the duck

[JokO3R]

Maybe the 20th time I see this sentence, please make more

[JosefXX]

To my ear at normal speed the "og" disappears
