  • jeg har været kærester med en norsk pige i 2 år. det var altid en udfordring når vi skulle snakke tal. jeg forstod alle de norske tal.. men ingen nordmænd forstod mig overhoved :D. det helt ude i hampen

  • Selv dansker har problemer med å forstå dansk

  • @DinSokk Og så alligevel ikke...

  • Hold nu kæft danskere :D Vi er så glade for at påstå at vi har selvironi og er jordnære, så vis det dog ;)

    Skål for Skandinavien for helvede! :D

  • ta ut jævla poteten ut av kjeften og prat som en menneske :P

  • im a dane, we are in no way german at all!

  • @MrDonRolfie Mr Smeichkel,go back to school and learn your history.

  • FLEKSNES EIER<3

  • silly norwegians

  • @ReitersOfTheStorm your number system is silly.

  • @pzrecon your moms are silly

  • @ReitersOfTheStorm i have multiple moms now? awesome.

  • @pzrecon no, norwegians as a total have silly moms

  • @ReitersOfTheStorm From a neutral position,norwegians are better than you boring danes,they are cools while you are arrogants.Even your language that sounds like you are have a potato in your mouth is awful and norwegians are are racists and savages like you bullying religions and whales.An advice,when you travelling abroad don't say that you are a dane otherwise someone will spit in your meal.

  • @ReitersOfTheStorm

    Sorry,i've made an error.

    YOU BORING DANES SOUND LIKE YOU ARE HAVING A POTATO IN YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU SPEAK.

    NORWEGIANS ARE NOT RACISTS AND SAVAGES LIKE YOU.

    What good about denmark,it's that they are more pigs (animal)than ......pigs (danes)

  • @kiss3451able dude relax and try not to take everything so seriously.

  • @kiss3451able oh and your mom promised to call me, please remind her;P

  • @kiss3451able well buddy now i can be really mean but....not racists...what was breivik?! Just some normal typical Norwegian?! wtf is wrong with you?!

    just remember for 400 years Norway was a Danish bitch! No matter what you say, we created your language and history! Your royal family of today is also danish, so again, thanks to Denmark. Go eat some butter...oh wait...You dont have any because you are on a stupid moronic diet! dumbass

  • @zorgo12 Half of your population are Germans.Remember when the Nazis raped your grans mothers;loads of them were pregrants and therefore you are half german and half God knows.And you are right i don't eat butter,i prefer pure italiano virgin oil.

    The video is great though.

  • @kiss3451able You forget that it was Norway that was raped. Lebensborn? war chidlren remember? This makes Norway half german, not because of its tribe, as Denmark, but because of a nazi project for making new soldiers. You saw them as retarded, does that make the Norwegians both swedish, danish, german and retarded? Im not suprised you like oil, but the italian one you eat is so expensive as everything in Norway is even cucumbers. yep good video.

  • @zorgo12 Looool...No mate thank God i am not Scandinavian affected by S.A.D. I was born in a sun which make me have an erection every time i see a bird.HA HA HA HA ...

  • @kiss3451able well I'll leave you alone with your bird fetisch then....thats kinda....your own thing. Anyway S.A.D has never been a problem for me. Snow, sun rain whatever Scandinavia is always beautiful.

  • @kiss3451able Sorry, but whats your problem?

  • @Vivalacoste I don't have a problem matey we just regard you danes as the most racists in Europe...just like the Nazis.

  • @kiss3451able That is actually quite racist.

  • @kiss3451able You talk like a pig. We know your type! We usually sell you as bacon and make a profit.

  • @mandmedlem I am a Jew matey,i don't eat bacon mate.

  • @kiss3451able I don't care what you hide under. If you sound like a pig you are a pig. Don't be ashamed.

  • Helt greit.

  • Awwwww ! Jeg dauer !1!

  • Fleksnes is really funny and being a Dane I must say that the number system is selly.

  • as a norwegian, danish numbers were always gibberish to me, but when i actually tried it took a couple of minutes to learn. tre 20's fir 20's fem 20's, halvfirs

    =three and a half 20's. that's all there is to it.

  • @acismail Man kan late som S'en står for snes. For det gjør den, på en måte. Siden et snes er 20.

  • Jeg stod på jobb en gang, og en danske var uenig i prisen. Han spurte: "Koster det virkelig halvtres fjærs fems?" Og jeg bare: "Hæ?"

  • @eurovisionmgp Det tror jeg ikke han sa..

    Fordi halv treds er 50 og fjers er 80 og fems er 100.

    det kan ikke koste 50 80 100.

  • @tlokken Det tror jeg han sa. Men det spiller egentlig ikke noen rolle. Jeg fikk bare med meg halvkvart uansett ;)

  • Innringeren snakket da merkverdig tydelig til å være dansk. Selv om numrene er kompliserte...

  • @Giradox Innringer ? på en ammatørradio ??

  • @tlokken Samma det.

  • @hashrygeren elelr måske er du nederen

  • @hashrygeren Selve systemet giver mening når du har sat dig ind i det. Matematik er også volapyk når man ikke forstår det. Om det er mere besværligt kan jeg godt give dig ret i, men at kalde et system åndssvagt fordi man ikke selv forstår det er direkte dumt.

  • @hashrygeren Dit navn lever fuldt ud op til din kommentar. Det danske talsystem er ikke åndssvagt, men bygger bare på anderledes principper end så mange andre sprog. Det er bygget op over "snese", altså 20. Et eksempel:Halvtreds, halv tre snese(2,5 snese=50), tres, tre snese(3 snese=60), halvfjerds, halv fire snese(3,5 snese=70) firs, fire snese(4 snese=80) osv.

  • Vilken diskussion om språk det var här! Kolla på klippet istället och sluta tjafsa med varandra. Vi bör hålla ihop i norden! :)

  • Du har rett! skandinavia <3

  • @Holmer87 Godt sagt! Enig.

  • "ja är ikke noe intressert" :D haha..

  • Er dette fra Fleksnes eller er det en sketch han har?

  • @ElliottSmithSocks Dette er fra "Radioten" fra Fleksnes.

  • Jævla dansker med "kartoffler" i halsen :D

  • danish counting system is complicated, they can say what they what. I understand it when i see the numbers.

  • I would say I´m one of few swedes who have learned to count in danish or at least understand it. The reason was that I ordered a pizza in Roskilde 1999 and the pizza guy gave me a ticket with number 74. He only spoke arabic and danish. A frekin lottery when he came out with the pizzas. Fantastic...

  • We have something silmilar in English. Gettysburg Address, A. Lincoln

    Four score and seven years ago ......................

  • @PIANOPHUNGUY

    Precisely - and you also used to have the ones before the tens ;-) (five and twenty etc.)

  • This is the funniest video I've ever seen. Fleksnes!!!!!

  • we danes really have the most stupid number system in the world.....

  • @roflmao1616mkay

    Actually there are other languages that have similar vigisimal (base 20) number systems -

    eg. French and the Celtic languages. So maybe we picked it up there? When you don't have

    pocket calculators 20 (a score) is a good number to use, since it's directly divisible by

    10, 5, 4 and 2, say in a trading situation - a similar thing goes for 12 - a dozen.

    The trick is not to think about what our "silly" numbers actually mean ;-)

  • I don't get it ho finland is nothing like danish, swedish and norwegian :l

  • @jwaacks finns are not germanics like nor-swe-den but they descend from slavics

  • @oooodin no, the finns are not slavs. they are part of a different ethnolinguistic group called finno-hungarian, which includes finns, sami, hungarians and estonians, among others.

  • Ehuru pjäsen äro ganska muntert framställd finner jag det osannolikt att mannen vars flyg havererade icke talade engelska och således hade möjligheten att framföra sitt budskap på detta tungomål.

  • HAHHAHAHAHAHA

  • You all mad that danish number system is far better!

  • Yeah, our number system is rather awkward indeed.

    BTW what is up with the spelling in the description?

  • The Danish number system is not any different from the German. Just like the Norwegian number system is no different from the English. The way you say the number is just sort of 'reversed' and includes an "and".

    So like, if you were to say "45":

    In English and Norwegian they would say it this way: "Forty-five"

    In German and Danish they would say it this way: "Five and forty"

    What is being spoofed here is the admittedly very weird Danish names for 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90.

  • @forgotmyaccount Norwegians also say "five and forty", but not as much now as they did 30 years ago...

  • @forgotmyaccount FINALLY someone got it right!!! THANK YOU!

  • Opposite take swedish, 777 ABSOLUTELY impossible for me to pronounce,

  • Halefjerts!

  • Haha. Husker jeg ville lære meg den danske tellemåten. Det var slitsomt, og jeg tuller like mye med det i dag.

  • LOL xD

  • For the further benefit of non-Danish speakers, the numbers the sinking captain gives mean: "Six-and-half-of-the-third degrees five-plus-half-of-the-third minutes north..." Meaning six plus twoscore plus half of the third score: 6 + (2 x 20) + (20/2) = 6 + 40 + 10 = six-and-fifty = 56. That's the system that only the Danes (and some Norwegians) understand, and that's being spoofed here.

  • @hirschbichl6 No, you are wrong.France has the same system as Denmark.

  • @svrljig no, French does not have the same system as Denmark. 1. The Danish have made everything between 50 and 100 a factor of 20: Haltress, Tress, Halfjers, Firs, Halfems...The French only have 80 as a factor of 20 (quatre-vingt). 2. Danish count the smallest number first: en o haltress, tu o haltress, tre o haltress...The French count the biggest number first: cinquante-et-un, cinquante-deux, cinquante-trois...

  • @svrljig one last thing. 3. The French count from 60 - 79 as one series, ex. the word for 70 jn French can be translated to 'sixty-ten' (soixante-dix) and the word for 71, 72...up to 79 can be translated to sixty-eleven, sixty-twelve etc. until sixty-nineteen (soixante-onze, soixante-douze etc. until soixante-dix-neuf). They also count from 80 to 99 as one series, so basically 99 in French can be translated to four-twenty-nineteen (quatre-vingt-dix-neuf).

  • @zeragito the french (and skandinavian languages) make math out of counting, so the best translation of 99 from french to english would be this: four times twenty plus nineteen. 4x20+19=99.

    it makes couting diffucult if you learn the languages and you arn't familar with suchs systems. german has a similar system: zweiundvierzig - two-and-fourty 2+40 =42 fourty-two.

  • @Duathos I disagree, Germans are not that complicated. All they do differently is count backwards (same as the Dutch and some Norwegians). But all their double-digit numbers' names, from 20 to 90 are related to the single digit number (50 is from 5, 60 is from 6, 70 is from 7 etc.), they are not fractions of 20 and they are not adding 10, 11, 12 etc to numbers. When you say scandinavian languages make math out of counting, it is only the Danish. Swedish is easy just like English...

  • @svrljig France count normal up until 69, then it gets fuNKeY.... :P

  • @svrljig No France does not have the same system as Denmark. A. In French: 50 and 60 are related to 5 and 6 just like everywhere else: 50 = cinquante from 5 = cinque, 60 = soixante from 6 = six. In Danish, 50 and 60 are related to 20 (50 = halvtreds = half of 20 - 3x20, 60 = tres = 3x20). B. The French count 70 to 79 as 60-10, 60-11, 60-12 until 60-19 (soixante-dix, -onze, -douze until soixante-dix-neuf). Danish do not add 10, 11, 12 etc to numbers (ex. 'elve og tres' doesn't exist lol).

  • C. The only numbers related to 20 in French is 80 and 90 (quatre-vingt = 4x20 and quatre-vingt-dix = 4x20+10) but in Danish all numbers between 50 and 90 are related to 20. D. The French count forwards like the English, ex. 65 is soixante-cinque (60 then 5) unlike the Danish who count backwards, 65 is fem og tres (5 then 60). So no, Danish and French use completely different systems and I don't know which is worse:)

  • Han siger 56 og 55. 

  • Ella 8PD!

  • Takk Wesensteen. Dette klippet er Hysterisk morsomt :D.

  • Super funny!

    Danish number system is in fact illogic. And the language is illogic to and difficult to learn. Its the illogic that makes it difficult to learn.

  • @intml Oh, it's logical. The problem is that the terms used haven't been in use for hundreds of years otherwise.

  • @intml It's not illogic at all. On the contrary, it is very logic - aslong as you get the logic ;) "Tyveboesen" made an excellent explanation to why the numbers are different than in almost every other country, however, that doesn't make it illogical, just different.

    You can compare it to math. It doesn't make sense if you dont understand it, but once you get it, it all makes sense.

  • i didn't get it?

  • HAHA, jeg skjønner han godt. Danske tall og danskene generelt er rare....og umulige å forstå...;)

  • @filmguttom We developed a secret language that no one would understand while we plot to take over the world by defrosting the vikings! :)

  • Lad os endelig diskutere det på engelsk, det giver da virkelig mening.. tsk tsk

  • "Min position kommer nu" hahahahahahahaaa!  XD

  • When a norwegian talks to a dane, it´s like when a briton listen to an australian

    Both languages sounds like they never will reach the end of the sentence..

  • @BoratKazakstan and when a norwegian listens to a dane, they wonder how the dane can fit a potato into their mouth

  • Every time a dane speaks to me I think: "Wha...what?"

  • hi hi jeg er norsk jeg er norsk i till jeg har alle fleksnes episodene xD

  • larson pv Oslo? it is LA8PV :p

    

  • Det har på en måde altid været sådan, så man tænker ligesom ikke noget over det x3

  • "Hello Oslo, FINALLY someone responds to my destress call

    Here are my position ( then he switch to Danish )."

    He's speaking Danish all along...

  • @Andreastij

    Good point, but what i meant to say was that i would translate in Danish due to the fact that it would underscore the point of the joke, hope my explanation makes sense ;-)

  • Fleksnes har svært ved at forstå "to-og-halvtres"

  • hahahahahaha drit løye

    

  • ehhh lol? STFU dude?

  • han gjorde ikke narr av tallene. han sa han hatet maydayer og at han ikke forstod de danske tallene din tufs!!!!

  • What is even stranger about the Danish language is that 25 "femogtyve" translates to "fiveandtwenty" instead of "twenty-five".

    Makes no sense but there you go.

  • @rorylol Saying femogtyve (fiveandtwenty) for 25 is normal in Norway too. Although I think it was officially declared wrong a few years ago and you should now say tjuefem (twentyfive).

  • @rorylol "femogtyve" makes just as much sense as the german "fünf-und-zwanzig" that also translates (word-part for word-part) to "fiveandtwenty", but means twentyfive. English is actually one of the few languages that pronounces tens before ones, so in that respect english is the odd-one out.

  • Comment removed

  • @rorylol English used to use the same word order. Americans will recognise the phrase "four score and seven years ago" (4 x 20 + 7 = 87), and I guess most English-speaking children have at some point recited "four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie" (24). But that word order is quite old-fashioned now.

  • @bbham

    "Four and twenty", pretty normal in Norway ^^

    "Fire og tyve" 24.

  • @Metalheadyup tjue-fire :)

  • @MrHappyPotato1

    We say both. Tjue-fire and fire og tyve.

  • i just heard:bla bla nghfha bla dfgfddf bla fgdr bla bla bla fdgpidgfdj...

  • fleknsnes rules

  • FUCK YOU SWEDEN! just kidding ... but seriusly !

  • TALLIÐ ÍSLENSKU!!!!!!

  • @kolemanplace Segir þú,skrifaðir talið vitlaust.

  • vores system er jo det samme som det tyske....

  • @omgdetv

    Nei det er ikke riktig. I tyskland teller vi som i Norge eller Sverige. Den danske måten er mer som den franske...

  • i hate speaking...im danish, lol, so its just....*mumble*..hej *mumble*

  • Meget sjovt. I Danmark er Fleksnes meget populær....I nordmænd er sgu herlige.

  • Firs = 4 snese, som også er 1 ol. tres = 3 snese, som igen er 5 dusin. en snes = 20, men 20 er tyve, ikke en snes!

    Det er også ligegyldigt om man siger tyve-tre eller tre-og-tyve i Kristiansand, de forstår begge dele, hvad de ikke gør højere oppe mod nord!

    Nordmændene har også en mil, det er 10 km! Og de bruger en hekto om 100 gram!

  • Är det någon som kan tala om för mig vilken dialekt som "Mayday-dansken" talar? Den var extremt lätt att förstå i mina svenska öron.

  • @TheGoldenSphinx Det lyder mest som noget vestjysk, måske nede i det sønderjyske.

  • Rubriken är fel i mina ögon. Marve gör inte narr av det (obegripliga) danska räknesystemet. Han är helt enkelt en barnslig, lat man som inte orkar ta tag i saker om det kräver lite extra av honom. Samma sak med hans dåliga engelska. Han ser ju sig själv som störst, bäst och vackrast, därmed tror han att han pratar perfekt engelska, fast det låter skit. :)

  • Det høres egentlig ganske godt at dansken ikke er dansk

  • haha det her er jo genialt !

  • ha, ha - den var go'

    men det er nu det samme den anden vej rundt, jeg bliver sgu altid så forvirret, når jeg skal købe noget i Sverige og Norge og de fortæller mig prisen - jeg stikker dem bare en stor seddel for at være på den sikre side:-)

  • @Maischa1000 @Maischa1000

    Der er vel merkelig, er det ikke ?

    For på den danske 50-lappen står det vist FEMTI gjør det ikke ?

    ( Ikke den nye som kom i år, men den gamle ), rar at dere dansker da ennu ikke har læret dere Femti ( 50 - Halvtreds )

  • @tlokken Jo det hele er meget indviklet. Femti (og alle de andre treti firti seksti osv.) bruges stadig til checks og i banker bruges dette også i talesproget. Men som du selv skriver, står dette ikke på de nye sedler. Ifølge dansk sprognævn eksisterer begge systemer (halvtreds og femti) stadig som talord. Men i gængs (normal) tale bruges disse ikke. Så ja, forvirringen er vel total for alle andre end danskerne.

  • @Tytteboevsen I'm austrian, I just recognized I can understand danish as well, is it also a germanic language?

  • @samsungstar87 Yes. It's a North Germanic language.

  • @samsungstar87 That's pretty amzing if you undestand everything :) as MrWildfire95 said, yes danish, swedish, norwegien, faroe and islandic are all Norht Germanic lang. They all have their roots in the lang. spoken in Germany, denmark Norway etc. back in around 800-1000. The english language has been influenced by the settlers which can be seen especially in the end of place names (?). The endings -by, -dal/dale, -ey/ay, -ness all origin from this lang. (Grimsby, Swaledale, Orkney, Orford Ness)

  • @samsungstar87 german and danish are very close to eachother but danish is a skandinavian language like norway+swedish

    just becuase danish and german are close together it doesn't make it easier for danish people to understand german.....belive me

  • @Alesandros356 Hi there, I know what you are on about. it's like " our austrian german " and " germany german " we understand germans very good, but german doesn't really understand us because of our slang and more than thousand words are different. But I was just wondering because I can understand " danish " very good. I tryed to read danish web sides and I understood more than 80% of it. By the way is it also close to " Flamish "? 2nd official language of belgium. I'm not sure if you know this

  • @samsungstar87 Reading danish is one thing, understanding spoken danish is a completely different matter... It's like reading british and hearing cockney :P

  • @TheRealYngin - Sammenligningen af forholdet mellem standard britisk-engelsk og cockney - med forholdet mellem norsk og dansk, er faktisk rigtig god! Eksempelvis bruges der i cockney en glottal lukkelyd, i stil med det danske 'stød'.

    Dog ska det siges at standard britisk-engelsk har mange svækkelser, der ligger nærmere dansk end norsk. Desuden har cockney selvsagt aldrig haft en indflydelse på standard britisk-engelsk, der nærmer sig den, som dansk har haft på norsk. :)

  • @Maischa1000 Hahaha, samme som jeg gjør når jeg er i Danmark! :P

  • @Eirikursson I think the english language has even more contractions than the danish. "I will" becomes "I'll" and "Give me" becomes "Gimme" etc.

  • @DannySays92 That may be, but English ain't all that hard to learn, whereas Danish.. well I'm glad I don't have to learn it!! However, in English the do-paraphrase is quite hard for a lot of foreigners to master as it doesn't(!) occur in other european languages.

  • ah det jo nok også lige noget af det sværeste dansk, jydsk er bar ikke særlig forståeligt for jer andre skandinavere, selv nogle danskere sys jydsk lyder mærkeligt. Godt man er jyde! :D

  • In Denmark's defense; Norwegian sounds like high notes all the way, even the darkest voices can't scare anybody. It's kind of a sissy language, totally unmanly... a castrated language. Try imagine the Norwegian mafia scaring someone... HAHAHA. Okay, no offence. I live in Sweden, btw! :)

  • @ElegantSpark bra du skriver på engelsk, ellers ville ingen forstått:)

  • @mouhaahaahaa Retarded, eller? Kan du varken förstå svenska eller danska? Jag visste att ni norskar var lite weird...

  • @ElegantSpark nå var du veldig kul.

  • NORWEGIANS are too DUMB to understand other Scandinavian languages

  • @robertjohnson487

    That is so untrue, because its in fact the danes and the swedes that have a hard time understanding us, while norwegians can more easily understand swedes and danes. But, this number system, really.. why learn that?..

  • @robertjohnson487 norwegians have the best understanding of all scandinavian languages, sweden has the poorest.

  • @ManvsMachine7 agree

  • @ManvsMachine7 you've got to be kidding me...

  • @ManvsMachine7 also depends on where in sweden you come from,im from southern sweden and i have no problems understanding danish but most people from middle or northerh sweden dont unserstand danish at all

  • @Bolsjevikpirayan no that one doesn't work on me, i come from skåne and they say that people here "should" understand danish better but it's just as incoherent to me as the norweigan language... although i'm planning to learn some of it, because it's getting very embarrassing heh.

  • @lollopisemis I feel the same way about swedish.

    So embarrassing standing in front of a swede when hes getting all that your saying and your just standing there like a retard not knowing what hes saying.

  • @ManvsMachine7 very true lol

  • @ManvsMachine7 Well, probably. But I don't see any problem with changing to English if I have to when talking with danish people. "We" understand most of the Norwegian dialects just fine though.

  • @ManvsMachine7 thats not right

  • @ManvsMachine7 we cant, nor do we want to understand danish! KILL EM ALL! :D
