Loxdanš/Lesson 7

Here you will learn about other countries in Low Danish. The way countries are named is by taking the country’s denonym and putting an ending -ën. Related to Danish egn, somewhat related to German -ei, and etymologically related to english own. There is though a rule in Low Danish that states that a name, a proper noun cannot be two separate words. So Anne Mary is actually either Annemary or Anne-Mary.
