Transcript
- Lucas: Velkommen til Learn Danish with Fexingo. Episode 177. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Hey Lucas, last time we learned 'far' and 'mor'. Lucas: Right. Dad and mom. Today let's add brother and sister. In Danish, brother is 'bror'. Luna: Bror. Sounds like 'bro' in English. That's easy. Lucas: Exactly. And sister is 'søster'. Luna: Søster. Like 'sister' but with a Danish twist. Søster. I love it. Lucas: Good. Now let's say 'my brother' — 'min bror'. And 'my sister' — 'min søster'. Luna: Min bror. Min søster. So min means my. Lucas: Yes. Just like we had min far and min mor. Now let's make a sentence: 'I have a brother' — 'Jeg har en bror'. Luna: Jeg har en bror. I have a brother. And I have a sister: Jeg har en søster. Lucas: Perfect. Let's practice. Repeat after me: min bror. Luna: Min bror. Lucas: Min søster. Luna: Min søster. Lucas: Jeg har en bror. Luna: Jeg har en bror. Lucas: Jeg har en søster. Luna: Jeg har en søster. This is great. I can talk about my family. Lucas: Now let's add an adjective. 'My brother is big' — 'Min bror er stor'. And 'my sister is small' — 'Min søster er lille'. Luna: Min bror er stor. Min søster er lille. So stor means big, lille means small. Lucas: You've got it. Let's do a quick scene. Imagine you're showing a photo. You point and say: 'Min bror er stor.' Luna: Min bror er stor. And then: 'Min søster er lille.' Lucas: Exactly. Now let's review all four phrases: min bror, min søster, Jeg har en bror, Jeg har en søster. Luna: Min bror. Min søster. Jeg har en bror. Jeg har en søster. I think I've got them. Lucas: You do. And if you want to say 'my brother is tall' — 'Min bror er høj'. But that's for another time. Luna: Ooh, høj. Tall. I'll remember that. Lucas: You know, if this podcast is helping you learn Danish, we appreciate any support.
