Celebrating one's day of birth.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The Danish flag (Dannebrog) is essential. It is used on cakes, tables, and flagpoles to signal a birthday. The 'Kageordning' (cake arrangement) means the birthday person MUST bring cake for everyone else. The birthday song involves making instrumental sounds like 'vov-vov' (dog) or 'bum-bum' (drum). In Greenland (part of the Danish Realm), a 'kaffemik' is often held when someone has a birthday, where the whole community is invited for coffee and cake.
The Flag Rule
If you see a flag, someone has a birthday. Don't be afraid to say 'Tillykke' if you know them!
No 'EN'
Remember: 'Jeg har fødselsdag', NOT 'Jeg har en fødselsdag'.
