Danish Facts
Most Danish words come from the Old Norse language, with new words formed by compounding several words together, though there are also influences from German, French and English
Danish uses the Latin alphabet, with three extra letters: æ, ø, and å, which come at the end of the Danish alphabet, in that order
Unlike Swedish and Norwegian, Danish does not have more than one regional dialect or speech norm

These Danish lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Danish to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners course, students can expect to finish the course with decent telephone and e-mail Danish, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.

Danish courses of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Danish - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Danish usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Danish classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Danish culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Danish.

Courses in Danish are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Danish Course or Small Group In-Company Danish Course). All those involved must have around the same experience of the language, similar needs of areas of proficiency, and must be able to work at the same time and place. Bookings must be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advise classes of more than 6-8 people, although In-Company Taster Danish sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.
