"Det er dejligt når andre tænker på én."

Translation: It is nice when other people think of you.

[DPyqYe]

Why is it not correct to translate 'andre' to 'others'? It says i have to put 'other people'

[ycUvuSap]

Now "others" is also accepted.

[LieneK.]

It was not accepted for me.

"It is nice when others think of you" is not yet accepted

[JulioSnche500786]

No It Isn't

[Peter654078]

Not for me.

Another sentence where "én" is meaning "you" instead of "oneself". Why?

[JacobVSO]

Because "you" has multiple meanings in English. In this sentence, "you" refers to anyone, not one particular person. It's the same in the Danish sentence. "Én" means "you" (general). "Dig" means "you" (specific person).

[deactivated user]

Maybe it would help to think of this "én" as "one". As in: "It is nice when one is thought of".

[CongChen2]

Wouldn't "oneself" always be sig?

[SonicSpunk]

So, only "good" and "nice" can translate to "dejligt", and not "wonderful"? Weird...

[JacobVSO]

"Wonderful" translates directly to "vidunderlig(t)". "Underfuld" isn't a word.

[RyagonIV]

Underfuld in DDO. Not every dictionary I consulted knows it, though, so I figure it might be rather uncommon in use. Vidunderlig might be the better choice, you're right.

[JacobVSO]

Alright, it is a word then :-) And there's even something refreshing about newcomers to a language re-appropriating old, forgotten words, so why not? But for the simple purpose of making yourself as clear as possible, better use another.

[RyagonIV]

Dejlig isn't that great. "Wonderful" has its own translation as underfuld.

[StewartMan]

Forget my last post, I am mistaken.

[RandyAbdal]

I guess one has to naturally assume - people in this phrase?

[RyagonIV]

Unless context points in a different direction, it's mostly assumed that andre refers to people. Like "others" in English.
