(actually I made a tyop in my danish .. there was one two many "er" in it ..
WAIT .. it's not a bug .. it's a FEATURE .. yep I did that to trow you off
*s* .. you believe me right ? )

There are (are) several similarities .. (and) also with german.

Very true .. I know absolutely no dutch aber ich kann ein bichen deutch
sprechen/scrieben and that combined with my knowlegde of danish and english,
help.
My knowledge of french , italian and spanish however seems of no use here as
it seems that dutch dont lend up to theese languages.

I dont even know what a Frysian is .. but I reckon it some sort of dutch
dialect.
I like dialects .. especially dialect of languages I speak and/or
understand - Danish has it's variaties of charming dialects and norwegian
seems to have dialects in the hundreds or so .. some of them sound very much
like danish - certain sentences are actyually pronounced exactly the same -
other dialects however can be completely incomprehensible - even to the
average norwegian.

Yes .. so ? - Denmark is a milkproducing country too ( I only drink domestic
milk ) .. a milk exporting one too - With an entirely flat country and good
soil mostly everywhere it's only natural that Denamrk is big on agriculture.

The water where I live is so good they seriouly consider tapping it on
bottles and exporting it.
