"middag" is confusing, there is also confusion between danish and swedish with when "frokost" is.

I found a list: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lista_%C3%B6ver_falska_v%C3%A4nner_mellan_svenska_och_tyska

Some of them are a little... far fetched.

"Mangel" is fun, because it means the same as in swedish, but it also means "deficiency". And the way to tell the difference is by the gender of the word. (so, really hard for any non native speaker)

But also a few good friends, like "Fenster/fönster". I ...

oh i know, i have been trying to learn speaking swedish, but my mouth has been cursed with danish and swedes are very quick to just switch to english.
Knowing a language that is close actually doesn't make it easier. I try to find the right word and 2nd guess myself "is this one of those words where swedish uses something else?"

When i learned danish, it really through me off, that half the words are just gone and all hell breaks loose if there is a soft d in the word.
And what got me the most was that "de" is pronounced like the german "die" while "det" is pronounced like germans would pronounce "de".

If written danish was closer to spoken danish it would be more microblogging friendly.

On our trip to congress, the button on our suitcase broke. Luckily it happened at Hamburg Central station and most of the way left i had to lift the suitcase anyways.

At home i looked int replacement parts, but they made that pretty hard, so i just designed my own and printed it.
I had to make a few prototypes to get the dimensions just right.

What did you do against the post congress blues?
