Well, that's like saying the writing is simple compared to Chinese
I'm sure you'll find it easier than, say, French. German is fun. Dutch is super fun. And Danish is just terrifying. It's the one language I know in which a word can be spelled "Speciallægepraksisplanlægningsstabiliseringsperiode" but can be pronounced "Dave"
But I digress...

Started learning German this week. Omg the verbs look super easy compared to Romance languages. But learning an inflected language should be interesting.
Edit: this word order is going to be fun.
code:Ich werde das Buch bald lesen.
I will the book soon read.
Ich trinke, weil du mich verlassen hast.
I’m drinking, because you me left have.
The word order is the easy part, believe me:
mit nach bei seit von zu aus außer entgegen gegenüber
durch für ohne um bis gegen entlang
Diese DREI Schwestern, kommen SEIT vielen Jahren AUS ihrem Dorf BEI jedem Wetter MIT dem Rad ZUR Schule. GEGENUBER den anderen Schulern sind sie NACH so langer Zeit die Schnellsten VON allen.
UM VIER Uhr nachts schleicht sich DURCH die enge Gasse FUR dunkle Geschafte GEGEN schlafende Burger der Rauber die Hauser ENTLANG OHNE jedes Gerausch.

It's the god damn conjugation that trips me up =/
Currently learning Danish right now, also a fun one
I've been debating when to leave Mexico and continue on with my initial plan of visiting Canada again before heading east through Europe and Asia. Stereo just announced Ben Klock b2b Marcel Dettmann in the beginning of July. I shall be there! I would also love to check out a few of those Sunday Picniks, as well. I bet that city is super fun in the summer.

You deserve a warm group hug for even giving it a try! Or, as they call group hugs in Denmark, "a couple of thumbs up from afar".

Considering my girlfriend is Danish, I kind of have to give it a try
Totally missed your first comment, though. Have you studied it? Due to your Soren obsession?

Haha, well, I hope she gives you the hug I mentioned then
I've studied a bit, yeah, but just the basics... And it's mostly due to my ScandinavianTVseriesobsession (as much as I love Kierkegaard, it must be nigh-on impossible to read him in the original Danish without decades of study ).
