I don't need it for Danish. ;-)
(a beautiful language btw and another one I can NOT speak.)
.
I must remember that, if I ever need those languages.
And thanks :-) I don't know if I agree or disagree, because I've grown up with the language. So it's just kind of there. If that makes sense.
I like German. It can be really harsh, but also really beautiful, depending on the context. I think most of the music I listen to is German actually.

But if you ever end up physically in my presence...no matter how often I change my story, I'll still be drunk...concretely.
I had a feral cat once. He got ran over, concretely, and died.
I don't care much for concrete reality.
It takes no prisoners.
I'm sorry about the cat, I also had one once, that was run over by a car.
Concrete reality can really be shite sometimes.
My ears inform me so that Danish is not so much spoken but sung instead. I only once had contact ( via phone) with a Danish coworker, the representative of our company for Scandinavia. So guess what: he sang his English with a very Jazzy Danish accent. Well, I always enjoyed mightily listening to him. I hope, he felt the same. ;-)

Ok, we hardly understood each other voicewise. but there is e-mail. E-mail saved both our jobs I think.
