Why Learn Danish?
One of the oldest languages in Europe, Danish is considered a North Germanic language, with its roots stretching back to 800 AD. Around 6 million people speak Danish – primarily in Denmark, but also in the Southern Schleswig of Northern Germany, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Sweden, Norway, and even Argentina! Like all other North Germanic tongues, Danish is an offshoot of Old Norse, the historic language of Germanic peoples during the Viking era. A handful of dialects remain extant, while some dialects, namely Dano-Norwegian and Angel, no longer exist. Danish is regulated by the Danish Language Council and is officially recognized as a minority language in Germany and Greenland.

Speak Danish with Confidence. Read like a Native.
Through his research, Dr. Pimsleur found that traditional teaching methods like memorizing vocabulary, conjugating verbs, and practicing grammar actually SLOW DOWN your ability to learn Danish. He called them the kiss of total silence because they made it nearly impossible to speak the Danish language. It's the reason learning a language feels so difficult, when it should feel totally natural.
It makes sense when you think about it. Have you ever seen a toddler memorizing vocabulary lists? Or picking out parts of speech in a sentence diagram? Of course not. Children learn language the way we were meant to ‐ by listening. That's because we are hardwired to remember sounds and store them in our memory automatically.
It's the same way you pick up a song on the radio. You don't have to study the lyrics or understand musical notes and chords to remember a song. Chances are, if you hear a song once you can sing along the next time you hear it.
