"The girl likes those shoes."

Translation: Pigen kan godt lide de sko.

[rolandjaspers]

Why not 'disse sko'? I thought that when I mean certain shoes I use 'disse' . And when I am talking about shoes in general I use 'de'.

[PhilipPMartin]

'Disse sko' would mean 'these shoes', whereas if you just wanted to say 'the shoes' you would say 'skoene'.

[Fred-3-CMY]

"de sko" means "those shoes", so here is a problem:
"de smukke sko" means "the beautiful shoes", but how would one say "those beautiful shoes"? Wouldn't that also be "de smukke sko". - How could one distinguish between "the" and "those" then?

[undoreverse]

is there another way to say 'like' in danish?

[deactivated user]

There is also "at synes godt om" which is what Facebook uses.

"Pigen synes godt om de sko."

[Simon160110]

Why isn't it 'dem sko'?

[evantigger]

I'm guessing because in proper english we don't say them shoes... Except for a few parts of England
