Thumbs up for "et glas maelk"! Also, in English "a glass of milk" is more commonly used.

It could be a simple statement ("What do you want?" "I want..."), but if it's a request, "I would like" is more polite. I've had exchanges elsewhere on Duolingo explaining that "I would like" is a polite request, not corresponding necessarily to a conditional form in other languages.

Jeg vil gerne have en sandwich, is the polite way to ask for something. I would like to have a sandwich. Jeg vil have en sandwich, I want a sandwich.
