wow i had no idea how similar swedish, norwegian and danish were. That's pretty cool. Even if you were to never learn another language you'd still kind of be multi-lingual. kind of.

Sounds like Danish would be an awesome language to learn if it's that easy. Are you saying that you NEVER have to conjugate verbs? You just learn the one and that's it? WOW. English is easy too but cos it really only has two different ways of conjugating a verb right? (I'm not 100% sure as it comes naturally... you know, being my mother tongue and all i don't really study english grammer)

German grammer is fucked up. But i loved it so much. I'm such a frickin nerd. I used to just read German grammer books when i was in switzerland because i found it interesting. Sad i know.

Alright, I'll order it now. Hee hee.

Yeah, Kathi writes in Swedish and I reply in Danish, but it looks similar?
All Scandinavian languages? Nah, Finnish is nothing like Danish, Swedish, Norwegian... But those are really alike, you can have a conversation across these three languages and understand each other. Danish grammar is very simple; we have 2 ways of saying "a/an" and 2 ways of saying "the", and the difference is one letter (either it's en or it's et), but that's very difficult to outsiders to learn, because really it's just guessing, I guess. And we only have one way of conjugating verbs. I mean, we don't have sing.pluralis etc. I am, he is, you are, we are..., it's all the same in Danish: Jeg er, han er, du er, vi er. But of course our pronunciation system is pretty fucked up (oh, and that word, er, it's pronounced like the English word 'air'). For an outsider, I mean. It's not like French or German where there are rules, it would be difficult for you to read any Danish sentence out loud correctly.

I seriously admire you for knowing German... The grammar kills, doesn't it?

Is that swedish? Are you replying to Kathi in Danish though? Sorry to be nosey, i just find this all very interesting. I love languages. So are all the scandanavian languages pretty similar?

I heard that in Finish there are 17 ways to say 'the'. That blew my mind. I had a hard enough time with three in german, and at least there was some sort of structure with German so you could guess most of teh time which one to use. Apparently in Finish it's all over the place. Is Danish like that too?

Haha, I think he would understand that, and maybe even appreciate it. But whatever, there's only one book left in the series, and I don't think I would mind him coming over sometimes to read; I see him, like, once a month or less. Is it out in Australia yet?

It is, isn't it? Well, I'm not joking, he always does that when I want to pick a fight because he's sitting with MY Harry Potter book. Once we argued so much, he left the room and said he never wanted to borrow any of my things again, and I felt so bad, I couldn't even read myself. I hate him for that. (I also recently lent him $1000 and I doubt I'll be seeing any of them in a long while, if ever). Fortunately he had just moved in his new appartment when the sixth book came out, so he didn't really have the time to stop by and bother me all the time.

I wish I was joking, you know.

Yay, I like the way tou think. :)

Paperback takes longer than hardcover? That's strange, but I guess they start printing the hardcovers first because they look nicer and people generally want hardcover... or wot.

Me and my brother ordered the first four books together because he knew this girl whose mother worked at a publish thing, and because the girl had a crush on my brother at the time, we basically paid nothing for the whole thing. Hee hee. But my point was, I'm sorry: the fourth book hadn't come out in hardcover yet, so we got that in paperback. The rest in hard. And now I simply buy paperback because it's cheaper.

I say you force her! Are you the older one? Because then you can simply grab the book from her and say stuff like, Don't be such an ego face, you make me sick. My brother has done that ever since I bought the Harry Potter books first, which would be from #5 til now.

i would never spoil a book or film for someone. That's almost evil.

Well i have a problem. I don't like hard cover books so i;ve bought the whole series in paper back. It takes ages for them to bring it out in paperback though. My sister has already pre-ordered it, but she's an incredibly slow reader.

So... I think i'm going to sneak into her room and steal it whenever she's not reading it and try and get as much in as possible. Or lock her in her room and force her to read it in one big go. I haven't decided yet.

I'm sorry, I meant 2000, but yeah, they were out in English a year before that, I think. The 7th book is out now, yeah?, but it won't be 'til Autumn until they have it translated here. :( I fucking hate the translator for translating so many unnessesary things, like, names, spells etc. It makes it hell to pick a copy in English now, because a lot of the characters' surnames are different in the Danish edition and so on. I tried that with the fifth book back then, because my vocabulary had developed enough for me to read in English, but I got sick of trying to figure out who was who, because I would hate to miss a point somewhere.

Yeah, I'll definitely cry like a bitch too. Almost half my life has been Harry Potter-dominated, it's going to be fucking sad no matter how jolly the story ends (which it totally won't, I'm guessing).

I think it came out earlier here. Was that because it was later released in Danish or something?

I read the first one as soon as it got out, and that was 2001, and I was 11. I've been hooked ever since. :) I can't fucking wait to get my hands on the final book!
