뜻
Asking about the duration of a stay.
문화적 배경
Danes value their 'fritid' (free time) and planning. Asking this question helps them understand if they can fit a 'hyggelig' dinner into their schedule. In Greenland, hospitality is paramount. Asking how long someone is staying is often the first step toward offering a place to sleep or a meal. In Danish offices, hierarchy is flat. A CEO might ask a junior intern 'Hvor længe er du her?' just to be friendly and inclusive. It is considered polite to ask this of anyone visiting your city. It shows you recognize they are a guest and are interested in their trip.
The 'Hvor' Rule
Always use 'hvor' when asking 'how' followed by an adjective (hvor gammel, hvor stor, hvor længe).
Don't use 'langt'
Using 'langt' makes you sound like you are asking about the distance to the person's current location.
