Language quiz

Here are recordings of Danish, Norwegian and Swedish. Can you tell which is which?

By the way, I’ve just added pages of useful phrases in Danish, Norwegian and Swedish (and also Faroese and Icelandic) on Omniglot.

Danish, Norwegian, Swedish….?

My guess (like Esteban’s) is that they go in the order you listed them: Danish, Norwegian, then Swedish.

Thanks for adding the Faroese phrases! I was pleased when I discovered that I knew them all. I’ll definitely use the Icelandic ones for my trip this summer.

It is indeed 1. Danish, 2. Swedish and 3. Norwegian.

The recordings come from DR (Danish), Sveriges Radio (Swedish) and NRK (Norwegian)
