Questions & Answers about Skriv din adresse her.
Why is the verb skriv instead of skriver?
Skriv is the imperative (command) form of the verb at skrive (to write), used here because the sentence is giving a direct instruction. In Danish, you generally form this command form by dropping the final -e from the infinitive verb.
How do I know whether to use din, dit, or dine for "your" here?
You choose the form based on the gender and number of the noun that belongs to you. Since adresse is a singular en word (en adresse), you must use din. If you were talking about a neuter et word, you would use dit, and for plural words, you would use dine.
Is adresse spelled differently than in English?
Yes, and it is a common trap for English speakers! While the English word "address" has a double "d" and a double "s", the Danish word adresse only has one d, a double s, and always ends with an -e.
