Questions & Answers about Vi har oplevet meget på rejsen.
Why does this sentence use på instead of i for 'on the trip'?
In Danish, you use the preposition på with en rejse (a trip or journey). This matches English, where you also say 'on a trip' rather than 'in a trip'.
What is the base form of the verb oplevet?
The base form (infinitive) is at opleve, which means 'to experience'. In this sentence, it adds a -t at the end because it is paired with har to form the present perfect tense: har oplevet (have experienced).
How does the word meget work here? Doesn't it usually mean 'very'?
While meget often translates to 'very' when put in front of an adjective (like meget stor for 'very big'), it is also the word for 'much' or 'a lot'. Here, it stands alone to mean 'a lot of things'.
Why is it rejsen and not just rejse?
Rejsen is the definite form, which means 'the trip'. Because rejse is an en-word (en rejse), you add -n to the end of it to say 'the'.
