أخطاء شائعة
While 'Jeg er' means 'I am', Danes strictly use 'Jeg hedder' (I am called) for names.
Translating 'How are you' literally to 'Hvordan er du' is incorrect. 'Hvordan går det' asks about the state of things.
Using 'Goddag' with friends sounds overly stiff. Match your greeting to the situation.
