Shopping
handle is to do the shopping — købe is to buy one thing. In the shop you stand in køen:
| We are standing in the queue. | Vi står i køen. |
| The shop is closed. | Butikken er lukket. |
Which one?
hvad for en (et before a neuter noun) asks which one, or what kind:
| Which one do you want? — The big one. | Hvad for en vil du have? — Den store. |
