What if I say “um” somewhere because I lost my place?
Then it’s your fault for not saying “uh” instead!
that’s one hell of a water bill if you were in the shower counting to one million.
Not if you count using a logarithmic base 10 scale!
Just yell 10! and you’ve counted way further already
When the thoughts get so deep you turn the water off and just stand there.
In English*
Yup, I can’t get past 5 in Norwegian.
It’s ‘fem’ in Swedish too, guessing it’s something similar in Norwegian? In Hebrew the first is 5 too (Chamesh/חמש), so that’s an interesting pattern
Yes, it’s ‘fem’ in Norwegian, too…
I got to three ín Hungarian.
they do if u kiss me
They do if you kiss yourself in the mirror, but only on the lips
You can only kiss your lips in the mirror
Wise man once said.
Another thought to disturb restful slumber, especially if you are vain: in a mirror you can kiss yourself only on the lips.

Not enough, Lemmy is embarrassingly credulous at times.
En, to, tre, fire, fem.
1000000 / 5 = 200000
Here’s the proof that Danish is 200.000 times better than English.
In romanian, it ends at 4. Romanian is 25% better than dutch and 250000 times better than english
250000 times better than english
That’s a very low bar tho
1 more and you learn why Swedish is superior.
One more and Germans get in on the action. And they get to say sechs (sex) right before.
As long as you have that ridiculous “to og en halvfjers” counting system, you do not have a superior system 😉
Haha! Yeah truth be told, our number system is completely stupid 😂
Besides the number system you got most things under control in Denmark.
You also have one of the greatest shows, Klovn 😂
Well thank you! Although I find Klovn to be too cringe for me, I do agree on the other statement, I feel incredibly lucky to be born here, where even born into unfortunate circumstances, it’s still possible to get a successful life.
I have watched every episode, it’s hilarious. Episodes ranging from them trying “the godfather of drugs” (heroin), to him stealing a wheelchair. I guess it might be too much for some people though, my wife can not watch it for similar reasons.
I feel the same way about being born in Norway. I come from unfortunate circumstances as you call it, and I am doing well. This is thanks to the extensive free education that I have gotten.
Speaking as a fellow Dane, I reject your “touch lips quickly while counting” criteria for language quality, especially since English is much more versatile and universally useful for communication and thus better 😁
Found the american.
I only have to count to 5
fem?
Ja
Don’t laugh at him it’s not nice.
same, but it’s pet (five)
It applies to any English-speaking country, which makes sense since it’s written in English.
I love this! It doesn’t seem like it could possibly be true, but my 30 seconds of testing haven’t debunked it.
My lips touch when I say one.
jedem?
dwa?

And then they touch for every number until 1 trillion
Portuguese (Brasil): 1 (um)
Is this this case in Brasil? In european portuguese your lips don’t touch for um
Yeah, forgot to specify ;P
