Learn Danish: Familien har mange stole. - The family has many chairs.

The singular word for chair is en stol. To make it plural, we just add an -e to the end, making it stole (chairs). This is a very common way to make plurals in Danish, especially for short, one-syllable nouns.

Why do we use mange here instead of meget?

We use mange (many) because chairs are things we can count: one chair, two chairs, and so on. If we were talking about an amount of something we cannot count, like water or time, we would use meget (much).

Why does the word for family end in -n here (familien)?

In Danish, the word for "the" is attached to the end of the noun. The basic word is en familie (a family). Because it already ends in an -e, we just add an -n to the end to make it familien (the family).

Does the verb har change if the subject is plural?

No, it doesn't! Danish verbs are very simple in the present tense. The verb har stays exactly the same whether it is one person having something (familien har) or many people (de har).
