because plural definite is either -ene or -erne. There are no exceptions that I know of, even when the noun is highly irregular
Why does mand turn to mændene when going from "man" to "the men"? Wouldn't it be Mandene? I'm a bit confused :S
Mand goes to mænd in the plural (pretty much the same way "man" goes to "men" in English with very similar pronunciation). Manden means "the man" and so "mændene" means "the men"
Ah, thank you. I'm really new to Danish, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. lol
Is it just me or does it sound like the TTS has a irish/Scottish accent? Or is that just how danosh sounds?
*Danish
I am scottiah with Irish roots (2 birds with one stone) and I don't notice such accents :D
The just "drikker" instead of "en drikker" for "are drinking" gets me every time lol. I'm getting better though!
