Countdown to Publication: Fun Fact 28--Vocabulary List: Danish Words

There are a good number of Danish words in The Girl Who Fell From the Sky. I just noticed that most of the words are food words. Below is a primer.  (And please note that pastry in Danish is not called a Danish!)

• franskbroed = white bread (nothing at all like Wonder Bread by the way).
• rugbroed = rye bread
• wienerbroed = pastry
• marzipan = marzipan
• stille = silent
• hellig = holy
• frikadeller = yummy meatball patty
• kys = kiss
• Jeg elsker dig. = I love you.

Stay tuned for the definition of the best word of all in the Danish language (and possibly any language) -- hygge!
