Sit, Stand and Lie in Danish Mics Languages 2021-04-06 | Once more I'll present a topic to you where Danish is different from English.In English you have the two verbs "lie" and "lay", but in Danish you use their counterparts "ligge" and "lægge" somewhat differently.Also, there are two words for "sit" (sidde / sætte) and two words related to "stand" (stå / stille).In this video I'll teach you how to use these 6 verbs, as always with lots of example sentences.We'll also look at reflexive pronouns, an important port of the Danish language.Mic's LanguagesSpeak it for real!http://micslanguages.comhttp://youtube.com/c/MicsLanguageshttp://facebook.com/MicsLanguageshttp://instagram.com/micslanguages
