"Du fortæller mig om din edderkop."

Translation: You are telling me about your spider.

[jackinaboxx]

Please don't tell me about your spider. (Thank you Danish Team for not including any pictures of spiders in this course!)

[Indra927477]

Spiders are actually very useful animals. ;-) And I must say, they are really nice here in DK. Some are much bigger then in my homecountry. The only problem, they all want to come indenfor so I have to bring them out all the time. By the way,are there any poisonous spiders in DK? (lille kultur lektion :-) ).

[Lars946533]

Yes, the European black widow does occur in Denmark, although it's very rare to see one. (I haven't yet.)

[SabinaPene]

A friend told me she saw in in October

[SabinaPene]

[A-bold-one]

What do you have against spiders

[Daventura_HUN]

What a beautiful conversation topic! And how is your scorpion going?

[violent_cop]

My scorpion ate my spider. :(

Bojler eladó.

Peter Parker speaking danish

[Larry_the_Zebra]

Or somebody talking to Wilbur the Pig from 'Charlotte's Web'. Wilbur talked A LOT about Charlotte.

[geo_torno9]

just like my ela teacher said in 2nd grade!

[zakiwis]

And that was the end of that date....

[ettaclemz]

This is precisely the kind of conversation I aspire to one day have with my friends.
At the moment, however, I should probably just focus on getting a friend...

[geo_torno9]

yeah. i have friends, but no danish friends.

[Sopzeh]

What would be the phrase for the imperative "tell me about your spider"?

[Hedebygade]

"Fortæl mig om din edderkop".

[chuck.coon]

Like in English, drop the subject, so no du

[Ciananus]

The verb also needs to be changed. Danish distinguishes the active from the imperative.

[lorenagay]

Obviously a line from Harry Potter translated into Danish...!!!

[BasCostBudde]

Sure it's not Ron Weasly's?

[vargasjuk]

I want someone to tell me about his/her spider :-(

[ZinC19]

..og jeg fortæller dig om min skilpadde.

[EvgenFirst]

Then I'll tell you about my cockroach.

[geo_torno9]

Sounds like my gramma's talking to my little brothers about their pet tarantula they put in my bed! (Why is she never angry about that?) #BigSister

[AnaKerie]

And that was the first sign there would not be a second date.

[LukeProcto6]

How do you say "foretelling" then in Danish, if fortæller is simply "to tell"?

[JeghedderShai]

My tongue caught a spasm trying to say this XD

[geckoH-]

My spider have 8 legs

[AmeliaFent]

Just by the way in case you havent noticed and dont generally know what you ate talking about... you are talking about your spider!!!

[FabianRxse]

an interesting issue for a conversation

[Ricky_DM]

weird
