"Sit down here with me."

Translation: Sæt dig her ved mig.

[Florlice]

I appreciate the difference between 'sæt dig' and 'sid ned', but two sentences ago I had to translate 'sit down' with 'sid ned', and now 'sit down' can only be translated as 'sæt dig'. Is there any reason why 'sid ned' is not accepted here?

[RyagonIV]

Absolutely not.

[ilmolleggi]

What is the difference between sid ned and sæt dig?

[arielkangaroo]

Sid ned = sit down

Sæt dig = take a seat

[ilmolleggi]

Very simple and clear! Thanks a lot!

[watsond2255]

Then sæt should not be accepted in any examples as 'sit' which it commonly is. Consistency please.

[Gylej-Gulay]

The accepted forms are not consistent thrughout the lessons. This really impairs the learning experience. I hope DL pays at least a bit of attention to what we report.

"Sæt dig her hos mig" is not accepted, I wonder if it would be proper Danish if I said "hos mig" in this context. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Sæt dig her hos mig ~ sit here together with me

Sæt dig her ved mig ~ sit down beside me

Sæt dig her med mig ~ let us both sit down here

• subtle differences, and I think all three translations should be accepted (I am Danish)

[maiacame]

perchè ved e non med??

[KarinBenne1]

I think it's actually 'seat yourself here by me'. That is, in my opinion.

[JustinG01]

I went for the ambitious "Sid herned med mig" half expecting it not to be accepted and it wasn't. Can anyone tell me why (or, if) this is wrong?

[yession]

I also have a question on the use of "med" vs. "ved"

[thor.dk]

"med" = (together) with,

"ved" = at.

Ex "med": Jeg går i biografen med mine venner (I go to the cinema with my friends).

Ex "ved": Vi får en øl ved baren (we get a beer at the bar)

[thor.dk]

'herned' = down here
