When you have an interesse, it means you want to learn more about something or someone. For example, if you find a new hobby interesting, you have interesse in it. It's like having a curiosity about something. You can also show interesse in a conversation by asking questions. Having interesse helps you connect with new topics and people.
When learning Danish, understanding how to express your interests is really useful. At the B1 level, you're moving beyond basic survival phrases and starting to have more detailed conversations. The word 'interesse' is key here because it allows you to talk about what you find engaging or fascinating.
You'll use it to say you have an interest in something, or that something is interesting to you. This helps you connect with others by sharing common hobbies or topics you enjoy discussing. It's a foundational word for expanding your conversational range in Danish.
When discussing hobbies or what you like to do, you can use the word interesse in Danish, which means 'interest'. It's a B1 level noun, meaning you should be familiar with it when talking about everyday topics.
For example, if you want to say 'I have many interests', you would say 'Jeg har mange interesser'. The plural form is regular. You can also use it to ask someone about their hobbies, such as 'Hvad er dine interesser?' which means 'What are your interests?'.
§ Danish Word: interesse
- Word Type
- Noun (en interesse)
- CEFR Level
- B1
'Interesse' is a common Danish word. It means 'interest' or 'the state of wanting to know about something'. Think of it like the English 'interest'. It's a feminine noun, so you use 'en' before it in the singular indefinite form.
§ How to use it in a sentence
You'll often hear 'interesse' used with certain prepositions. The most common ones are 'for' (for) and 'i' (in). Let's look at how that works.
§ 'Interesse for' - Interest in something/someone
When you're talking about having an interest in something or someone, you use 'interesse for'. It's like saying 'interest for' in English, but it means 'interest in'.
Jeg har stor interesse for historie.
(I have great interest for history.)
Hun viser ingen interesse for ham.
(She shows no interest for him.)
§ 'Interesse i' - Stake or share in something
This one is a bit different. When you use 'interesse i', you're usually talking about a financial stake or a personal involvement in a company or project. It's not about curiosity, but about having a share or a vested interest.
Han har en økonomisk interesse i virksomheden.
(He has a financial interest in the company.)
Vi har alle en interesse i projektets succes.
(We all have an interest in the project's success.)
§ Verbs with 'interesse'
You can also combine 'interesse' with verbs. Here are some common examples:
- At have interesse (for/i) - To have interest (in/a stake in)
- At vise interesse (for) - To show interest (in)
- At vække interesse (hos) - To awaken interest (in someone)
- At miste interesse (for) - To lose interest (in)
Filmen vækkede min interesse for rumfart.
(The film awakened my interest for space travel.)
Jeg har mistet interesse for det spil.
(I have lost interest for that game.)
§ Plural Form
The plural of 'interesse' is 'interesser'.
Mine interesser er mange.
(My interests are many.)
- Key Takeaways
- Use 'interesse for' when talking about general curiosity or liking something.
- Use 'interesse i' when referring to a stake, share, or vested interest.
- 'Interesse' is a feminine noun: en interesse, interessen, interesser, interesserne.

This sentence structure (possessive + noun + preposition + noun + verb + adjective) is common in Danish to express strong interest in something. 'Min' (my) comes first, followed by 'interesse' (interest). 'For historie' (for history) specifies the area of interest, and 'er stor' (is great) describes the intensity.
The modal verb 'må' (must/may) comes before 'ikke' (not) when negating a permission or obligation. 'Miste' (lose) is the infinitive verb. 'Sin interesse' (his interest) is the direct object, and 'for projektet' (in the project) specifies the object of interest.
This sentence uses the passive voice 'blev vækket' (was awakened). 'Hans interesse' (his interest) is the subject. 'Af den nye historie' (by the new story) indicates the agent causing the awakening of interest. Remember the word order for passive sentences in Danish.
Listen for 'interesse' and how it relates to 'historie'.
Pay attention to the verb associated with 'interesse'.
Consider the phrase 'i din egen interesse'.
