Danish Facts
Danish is an official language of the European Union
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 was once spoken widely in northeast England, and in some parts like Yorkshire many Danish words still survive

Book now / EnquiryThese courses in Danish are meant for those that feel that learning Danish would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone Danish and e-mail Danish skills for communicating, as well as survival Danish if a short visit to the country is needed.
Book now / EnquiryDanish 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.
