"Jeg turde ikke gøre det."

Translation: I did not dare to do it.

[saralloyd76]

I dared not do it?

[AlexMoby]

In which way is to dare a modal verb ? Or perhaps it is a word that has been added to complete the course ?

[Xneb]

"To dare" is a semi-modal verb in English according to Cambridge Dictionaries and "turde" is used as a modal verb in Danish

[AlexMoby]

Ok, thank you for your answer. I did not know this aspect about the English and Danish languages since in my mother tongue (and I assume in many other languages), to dare is not considered a modal verb.

[derpkins]

What's the difference between 'turde' and 'tør'?

[JHolmes10]

They're different tenses of the same verb. "Turde" is past, "tør" is present, I believe.
