Questions & Answers about Har de krypteret alt hvad der foregår på hjemmesiden?
Why is it alt hvad der here instead of just alt hvad?
When alt (everything) is followed by a relative clause, we use hvad instead of som or der. However, because "everything" is the subject of the relative clause in this sentence (it is the thing that "happens"), we must add der. If it were the object, such as "everything that they encrypt", it would just be alt hvad.
What exactly does foregår mean here compared to sker?
Both mean "happens", but foregår (from at foregå) usually implies an ongoing process, activity, or event taking place over time. Sker is typically used for sudden or spontaneous events. On a website, foregår perfectly captures the ongoing transactions and data flows.
Why do we use the preposition på with hjemmesiden?
Just like in English, Danish uses på (on) for internet-related locations and platforms. You do things på nettet (on the internet) and på en hjemmeside (on a website).
Why are Har and de swapped at the beginning of the sentence?
This is a standard yes/no question, which means the sentence must start with the finite verb. This causes an inversion of the normal subject-verb order, placing Har before the subject de.
