Questions & Answers about Jeg har nogle spørgsmål i forbindelse med kurset.
Why is it nogle and not nogen in this sentence?
In written Danish, nogle is used with plural nouns in affirmative sentences when it means 'some' or 'a few'. The word nogen is used in questions, negative sentences, or conditionals to mean 'any'. Since this is a positive statement about having a few questions, nogle is the right choice.
The word spørgsmål doesn't have a plural ending here. How do we know it means 'questions' and not 'question'?
et spørgsmål is a neuter noun (an et-word) that ends in a consonant. In Danish, many such words have the exact same form in the singular and the plural. We know it is plural here because it follows the plural quantifier nogle.
Is i forbindelse med a fixed phrase, or could I just use om?
You could absolutely say spørgsmål om kurset, which is perfectly natural. However, i forbindelse med (literally 'in connection with') is a very common, slightly more formal fixed phrase that B2 learners should know. It is heavily used in professional or academic contexts to mean 'regarding' or 'relating to'.
Why is the definite form of kursus spelled kurset and not kursuset?
kursus is one of several neuter words borrowed from Latin. When making these words definite, Danish drops the final -us (or -um in words like centrum) before adding the definite ending -et. So et kursus becomes kurset.
