Okay, I did that one very quickly. Looking back on it, here's my revised version:
Jeg er sikker på at det finnes flere nordmenn, men det finnes ikke en sticky for dem.

One of my very favourite movie quotes! 😀Kingsly said:
Regarding country specific forums, I don't think they'd really achieve all that much. If you wish to keep in contact with compatriot members, then there are better means of doing so. 🙂
I think annk already mentioned this, but I think if you want to write in another language, at least some sort of translation should be provided - more out of courtesy than anything else. Just like in real life, it's rude to have a conversation in another language that members of the group can't understand. I'm bilingual (Ukrainian and English), and I know that if someone involved in the conversation can't understand Ukrainian I will either speak in english or translate anything that's been said.

Haven't really been around the past half year and wha'd'you know - a Danish thread and a whole bunch of new Danes. How hyggeligt ...
... but however hyggelig it is, it might be a bit over the top with a subforums or stickies.
Anyway, one of the main reasons I come here is the incredible inside view of American culture 😀
Why don't you just start a thread in the community forum about all things Danish... people interested could just subscribe in that one. Those would be manly Danes and pastry fetichists.

It's called the letter "ø". 😛
Seriously though, I think the Wiki article says it pretty well. The closest I can come is the sound of the "i" in "bird", if you say it with a British accent, or the vowel sound in the French "boeuf". In addition, the lips are pretty much pursed when you say it.

Very good. Børd or bøf is a good example.
BTW, bird and steak are "fugl" and "bøf" in Danish.
It is now updated with 9 Danes, plus that Dr. something I can't find.
An amount of these have supported the idea, and also made proposlas to simpy start a thread.
I live in that country to the south of Denmark
which shall remain nameless. However, I originally hail from the land of Steve Jobs, but on the other side of the country.
However, I do want to visit up north there someday, but it is just so expensive!
Any suggestions on making a fun, cheap trip?

Well, I shall teach you fluent Danish and give you a free trip to Denmark, for the low low price of one 15" high end maxed out Merom MacBook Pro.
Otherwise, I would be glad to have a MacRumors get together in Denmark. That would be awesome.
I have a suspicion my big brother was active here last year. He says he wasn't, bu he's the one who told me about this site... hmmm🙄
His name is Jason, lives in Ringsted, Denmark, and has a rev. B 14" iBook G4.

Hehe, yeah, jeg vet, I'm a stealth Norwegian (American living in Norway for 19 years). 😎
I just love Danish. At first, when I moved to Oslo and met and heard my first Danes, I couldn't believe any of you actually understood each other. 😀 Now, I love it and wish I speak it, not just understand it.
