DTU Campus Village
A mix of languages is present at Campus Village. While some students with common nationalities talk to each other in their native languages, many students make an effort to learn another language. Many international students hope to learn English by studying in Denmark, as most Danes speak English since a young age. Some Campus Village residents manage to learn phrases from an additional foreign language like French or Portuguese through living with native speakers of those languages. Some students attend a class at night to learn Danish.
Insular Danish
Insular Danish (Danish: "Ømål") are the traditional Danish dialects spoken on the islands of Zealand, Langeland, Funen, Falster, Lolland and Møn. They are recorded in the Dictionary of Danish Insular Danish ("Ømålsordbogen") which has been collected since the 1920s, and published in biannual volumes since 1992. There are significant differences between the different insular varieties, but they also share a number of features. A major difference is between Modern Danish and the traditional insular dialects are that some of them lack the stød but kept the tonal accent. Also, they kept three noun genders.
