معنی
Asking for the commencement time of an event.
زمینه فرهنگی
Punctuality is a core value. If you ask 'Hvornår starter det?', expect a very precise answer, and be prepared to be there at that exact time. The 'Academic Quarter' is a tradition where classes start 15 minutes late, but this is fading and only applies to universities. Danes love 'planlægning' (planning). Asking 'Hvornår starter det?' weeks in advance for a social event is very common. Danish trains (DSB) and buses are generally on time. People use the app 'Rejseplanen' to answer the question 'Hvornår starter det?' for their journey.
The V2 Rule
Always put the verb in the second position. It's the golden rule of Danish.
Silent Letters
Don't pronounce the 'h' in 'hvornår' or the 't' in 'det'.

Use 'Begynder' for class
In school or university, 'begynder' sounds more natural than 'starter'.
Be on time!
If someone tells you it starts at 8, they mean 8:00, not 8:15.
