- Lucas: Velkommen to Learn Danish with Fexingo. I'm Lucas, and with me is Luna. Luna: Hej! Last time we were at the playground. Today, let's go somewhere a bit more grown-up. Lucas: Yes! We're heading to the bank. You know, if you visit Denmark, you might need to exchange money. Luna: Right. So what's the first phrase we need? Lucas: A simple one: Jeg vil veksle penge. That means 'I want to exchange money.' Let's break it down slowly. Luna: Jeg vil veksle penge. Lucas: Good. Jeg vil – I want. Veksle – to exchange. Penge – money. Luna: Jeg vil veksle penge.
