意思
Describing friendship
文化背景
Danes often maintain friendships from childhood. The phrase 'en god ven' implies a high level of trust and 'hygge'. Friendship is often based on equality and shared activities rather than social status. Expats in Denmark often find it hard to 'have a good friend' quickly because Danes take time to open up. On Danish social media, 'en god ven' is often used in 'appreciation posts'.
Gender Matters
Always use 'veninde' if you are talking about a woman to sound more natural and precise.
Don't say 'godt'
Even though 'godt' is common, 'ven' is an n-word, so 'god' is the only correct form here.
