Q

In Danish we add an ending to the indefinite noun to give it the definite form – in singular the ending is the same as the article (‘en’ or ‘et’). In English this would be done by putting the article ‘the’ before the noun (‘a man’ - ‘the man’).

A

Examples:
en bil - bilen / a car - the car
to biler - bilerne / two cars - the cars
