It is almost a year ago that I (inadvertently) set out to learn to speak Danish. My beginner’s vocabulary list is here. I am now watching Borgen, and have progressed by leaps and bounds. Here are the latest additions to my phrasebook:

English : briefing. Danish : briefing.
English : spin doctor. Danish : spin doctor.
English : girl power. Danish : girl power.
English : wet tee-shirt competition. Danish : wet tee-shirt competition.
English : famous for fifteen minutes. Danish : famous for fifteen minutes.
