Lad os mødes overfor kiosken, hvis du ikke kan finde busstoppestedet.

Yes. Lad os is the standard everyday way to say let’s in Danish.

Literally:

• lad = imperative form of lade
• os = us

So the literal sense is let us, but in normal use it simply means let’s:

• Lad os gå = Let’s go
• Lad os spise = Let’s eat
• Lad os mødes = Let’s meet

It usually sounds like a suggestion or proposal, not a harsh command.

Because after Lad os, Danish uses the bare infinitive, just like English uses a verb without to after let’s.

So:

• Lad os mødes = correct
• Lad os at mødes = not correct

Compare English:

• Let’s meet
• not Let’s to meet

Because mødes means meet each other / meet up, while møde more often means meet someone/something.

So:

• at møde nogen = to meet someone
• at mødes = to meet each other / to get together

In this sentence, the two people are arranging to meet one another, so mødes is the natural choice.

Examples:

• Jeg møder min ven = I’m meeting my friend
• Vi mødes ved stationen = We’re meeting at the station

So Lad os mødes is the normal way to say Let’s meet.

Here overfor means opposite or across from.

So overfor kiosken means something like:

• opposite the kiosk
• across from the kiosk

It gives a meeting point relative to the kiosk.

No. They mean different things.

• overfor = opposite / across from
• foran = in front of

So:

• overfor kiosken = on the other side from the kiosk
• foran kiosken = directly in front of the kiosk

That is an important difference.

Because Danish usually adds the definite article to the end of the noun.

So:

• en kiosk = a kiosk
• kiosken = the kiosk

And:

• et busstoppested = a bus stop
• busstoppestedet = the bus stop

This is one of the biggest differences from English. Instead of putting the before the noun, Danish often adds an ending:

• common gender nouns often take -en
• neuter nouns often take -et

Here:

• kiosk is a common gender noun → kiosken
• busstoppested is a neuter noun → busstoppestedet

Because hvis introduces a subordinate clause, and in Danish subordinate clauses, ikke normally comes before the finite verb.

So:

Main clause word order:

• Du kan ikke finde busstoppestedet

Subordinate clause word order:

• hvis du ikke kan finde busstoppestedet

This is a very common Danish pattern:

• Jeg ved, at han ikke kommer
• Hvis du ikke har tid, ...
• fordi vi ikke kan vente

So the placement of ikke is an important clue that this is a subordinate clause.

Because kan finde means can find / are able to find / manage to locate.

In this context, the idea is:

• if you can’t find the bus stop
• meaning if you’re unable to locate it

If you used finder instead, the meaning would shift a little:

• hvis du ikke finder busstoppestedet = if you don’t find the bus stop

That is possible Danish, but ikke kan finde is more natural when talking about someone’s ability to locate a place.

Because Danish, like German, forms many nouns as compound words.

So busstoppestedet can be broken down as:

• bus
• stop
• sted
• -et = the definite ending

Together:

• busstoppested = bus stop
• busstoppestedet = the bus stop

English often writes this kind of thing as two or more words, but Danish often combines them into one.

du is the normal singular you in modern Danish, and it is used in almost all everyday situations.

So in this sentence, du is completely normal and neutral.

A formal you does exist:

• De

But De is much less common in modern Danish and can sound very formal, old-fashioned, or reserved depending on the context.

So for ordinary speech, messages, and conversations, du is the right choice.

Not usually. It normally sounds like a suggestion or friendly proposal.

So Lad os mødes overfor kiosken is like saying:

• Let’s meet opposite the kiosk
• Why don’t we meet across from the kiosk?

It is directive in form, but in tone it is usually cooperative rather than bossy.
