There are a bunch of links missing from my list for your team and I didn't see them on page #1 here either. I think some of these people might have a log, but just haven't remembered to rename it to reflect their team affiliation. So, if anyone who is missing on my list has a log, post the link on the main sign-up thread. I suspect there are also a few who have given up before they even started :(

I don't know if you want new members, but there is someone asking about it on the main thread. I said she should ask here.

THE DANISH CULTURAL "KANON"

On occasions I intend to give references to Norwegian and Swedish culture, as I am fairly familiar with both. I
am however unlikely to give you much about Danish culture, since I know it less well.

Today I stumbled over a list over the Danish "Kanon" which is an overview of what is supposed to be the
essence of Danish culture. I hope you enjoy it :-)

@BrunUgle: We've been asking for feedback for quite some time. Unfortunately we don't
know if all members are still on board.

Here are the missing log links from two members:
Jeff_lindqvist
Marya

Still no feedback from: Ignis Fatuus / Veel / araul.
No feedback if they are officially on board: Jonhello / limey75

Did the initial enthusiasm went up in smoke?

EDIT: I don't mind accepting new members, if they are willing to (1) work on their
languages and (2) be an active member of this team.
Unofficial groupies are welcome anyway! ;-)

The member in question seems to learn Danish and we lack in Danish learners here anyway, so I would be in favour of accepting her.

Indeed, some more Danish people would be nice, there aren't that many of them. And I
think that we already have a few inactive members, so don't think it will be bad to take
in a some more. I can imagine that in 2 months there will already be quite some people
who stopped keeping their log updated.

Me too... I posted this on the TAC Organisation thread:

I don't see any problems if you want to join us, Ana! So if you're still
interested, welcome on board! We didn't make any team decision on that, because it would
probably take ages until every member post their opinion. So let's just assume it's ok
;-)

It's obvious that we are way above the limit of 15 participants per team, but we seem to
have a few inactive members already. Furthermore, Ana is learning Danish, and as we have
so few of them, her participation would strenghten our Danish section.


I hope this is ok for everyone in our team. If not, I'm sorry, and I'll bear the
consequences, taking verbal slaps and turning the other cheek.

:))) Don't be worried about consequences. Despite all the stories about furious Vikings, we can be a friendly folk, if we want to. ;)

SECOND VIKING CHALLENGE

Write 3 sentences where you try to use as many of the words which in English are spelled with capital letters, and in Norwegian (and as far as I know also Swedish and Danish) are spelled with regular letters as possible.


I know I’m a little late and I’m still not sure where the challenges are supposed to be posted, but I’ll add mine here.

1 - Jag arbetar måndag till fredag men jag gillar att läsa romaner i helgen: just nu läser jag Krig och fred*.

2 - Jag firade jul med en stockholmare som flyttade till Rom i augusti.

3 - Om du vill arbeta i Förenta staterna måste du tala flytande engelska och spanska.

*In Swedish, only the first word in film and book titles is capitalized.
