Plural subject pronouns (vi, I, de)

Plural Subject Pronouns

The Danish plural subject pronouns are:

  • vi (we)
  • I (you, plural)
  • de (they)

Note that I (you) is always capitalized, while de (they) is lowercase unless it starts a sentence.

Danish verbs do not change based on who is doing the action. The present tense remains exactly the same for plural subjects as it does for singular ones.

We work together.
Vi arbejder sammen.
They live together now.
De bor sammen nu.
You read the newspaper together.
I læser avisen sammen.

Adding Context

To make your sentences richer, you can add adverbs like også (also) and prepositions like i (in).

In basic Danish statements, adverbs usually come right after the verb.

We also live in the city.
Vi bor også i byen.
They work here in the city.
De arbejder her i byen.
You are also working now.
I arbejder også nu.
