"Jeg kan ikke se dit pas."

Translation: I cannot see your passport.

[LucBE]

Can 'pas' also mean "an i.d."? Or is it only the (international) passport?

[deactivated user]

'pas' only means passport.

ID is the same in Danish as in English, so a bouncher at a club might say: "Har du noget ID jeg må se?"

Why when i write can not it wont accept it as an answer

[LucBE]

Because apparently it should always be one word: cannot. Can not is an error. I believe it should however be accepted, as a right answer, with a remark.

Thank you LucBE

I'm not native, but I believe 'can not' alters the meaning in English. With 'cannot' it says 'I am not able to see it'. With 'can not' it's more like 'it's up to me whether I want to see it or not, I can decide that I don't want to see it'.

In the (new) female pronunciation, the n on "kan" is completely inaudible, even at max volume. Is it normal in Danish to pronounce it this way? Feb 2021
