Examples that Danish is the most confusing language for English speakers:
In Denmark, when washing machines are done, their displays write, "Slut!", which means "Finished".
When someone enters an elevator, the display changes to "I fart", which means "On the move".
Tourists have difficulty finding a nice WC, because the signs often say "Bad toilet", meaning "Bathroom and toilet".
In lobbies with multiple elevators, one sign may say, "Gods elevator", which means "Freight elevator".
@randahl Pretty much the same here in Sweden. Personally i like a good infart.

@randahl Please explain the idea behind "your" numbers! It's fun, but in the most complicated way possible
@waldschnecke @randahl yeah its insane. Basically you divide all the numbers into 20 (snes, a score in english) like the french but then somebody got the brilliant idea to count half snes, so when you say 50 you say halvtres (deduce: half three snes) meaning 2.5 snes.
Yeah its just insane 😂 -

@randahl I do not know what is so bad about Bad Odesloe… Or Bad Salzungen. When you learn German, Bad means healing termal spring.

@randahl One day, Middelfart is going to open an art museum and the sign pointing to Middelfart Kunst is going to make visitors so happy.
