will they be fighting?

[nicomiro]

I am checking the difference of pronounciation between "aeble" and "aeblet" and I don't get it. It sounds way too similar to met :-(

[Idraote]

I think this automated voice doesn't pronounce them differently

[Subalzero]

They are not similar. As I heard, "æblet" has the longer "uh" sound at the last, while "æble" has a shorter "uh" sound.

[Sopzeh]

I cannot distinguish between "æbler" and "æblet" myself.

[immerweiter]

i do not hear a u at all

[iusethisforstuff]

Wouldn't "the apples" be a better fit than "the apple"?

[Xneb]

"The apples" would be "æblerne"

[BazzaLoves1D]

The sentence implies that multiple women are sharing one apple. It might not be as plausible to be used in real life, but right now, spelling and grammar are more important.

[RebeccaHillary]

I think it's open to interpretation. In English at least, it may be that they have a choice of eating apple or some other food, and they are all choosing to eat the apple. Not sure if it works the same in Danish.

[immerweiter]

they only have little pieces

[NickWager]

I love learning words like Kvinderne, the pronunciation is so foreign.

[dxrsam]

And smooooth.

[hazar1948]

Can you tell me how to pronounce this one?

[Wes721795]

I've heard of this diet

[immerweiter]

why is it not continuous form here

[HeatherCoo999647]

I'll wondering why "women" was incorrect here? Wouldnt kvinderne ydes for either "women" or "the women" ?

[DanskForEvigt]

No since the Danish suffix "erne" implies a plural definite article. Check the lesson notes for an in-depth look at each of those endings and uses.

[dorienmast]

Is the correct way to pronounce kvinderne, kvinder-ne? Or kvinne-ne. It's hard to understand. sometimes I hear the D and R and other times I don't

[pressopeter]

each woman would only get a little bit of the apple lol
:(

[ph.jPe0v6]

There is no word "eat" for me to select the answer
