Questions & Answers about God bedring, og tak for i dag.
The translation for get well soon is god bedring. What does this phrase literally mean?
God means good, and bedring means recovery or improvement. So literally, you are wishing someone a good recovery.
When do Danes actually use the expression tak for i dag?
It is an extremely common polite phrase used when parting ways. You say it to colleagues when leaving work, to classmates after school, or to friends after spending the day together to thank them for the shared time.
Why is today written as two separate words (i dag)?
In Danish, many time expressions are built by combining the preposition i (in) with a time noun. I dag literally means in day, but it is the standard way to say today. You will also see this pattern in i morgen (tomorrow) and i aften (this evening).
Why does the phrase use god instead of godt?
Adjectives in Danish change their ending based on the gender of the noun. Because bedring is a common-gender word (en bedring), the adjective keeps its basic form god. If it were describing a neuter et word, it would become godt.
