"I like the opposite model."

Translation: Jeg kan godt lide den modsatte model.

[verysupergay]

I thought I read in the comments that the article (here, "den") in a case like this should always be plural. That is, any time an adjective is used with a definite noun. The green dress, the tall man. I must have gotten it wrong though, because I've seen many like this one where it is singular. Am I mixing it up with some other rule? How exactly do you know to use "den" here?

[Frederikbr]

It is the adjective not the article that takes the plural/definite form. I think that is where you mixed it up:

En modsat model (adjective is in the singular form)

Den modsatte model (definite)

5 modsatte modeller (plural)

Just how are the Danish that there is no simple way to say I like something that they actually have to use the negative of I suffer

[DieLegende2]

Not quite the negative of suffer, I think "kan godt lide" would rather translate into "can well tolerate"

Is it okay if there's no 'godt' in this sentence?

[AndreFSRodrigues]

It would change the meaning to "I am okay with", "I don't mind" (more literally "I can suffer" or "I can tolerate").

[skywalker735]

so 'godt' is an intensifier of the pleasure for that sentence?

[AndreFSRodrigues]

Yes, I think you can say that.
From what my teacher told me, it is very rare for people to use just 'kan lide' without the 'godt'.
