Filling in a form
| Danish | English |
|---|---|
| fornavnet | the first name |
| efternavnet | the surname |
| adressen | the address |
| nationaliteten | the nationality |
| telefonnummeret | the phone number |
After hvad er the question uses the possessive and the bare noun, just as in English:
| What is your first name? | Hvad er dit fornavn? |
| What is your address? | Hvad er din adresse? |
Navn and nummer are neuter, so they take dit and mit; adresse and nationalitet are common gender and take din and min.
Numbers one at a time
Danes read phone numbers in pairs or digit by digit, and nul is zero:
| My phone number is two six five zero. | Mit telefonnummer er to seks fem nul. |
nummeret is the number of something — a house, a bus, a ticket: Husets nummer er ti.
