Learn, remember and use it forever!

First Create flash cards! A flash card is a piece of cardboard with Danish on one
side and English on the other. Or you can download the free software Anki, and make
electronic flash cards. The program will space your repetitions for you according to how
well you have learned each card. Download Anki: http://ichi2.net/anki/
Its fine to make cards with single words, just make sure also to do one card for each
whole phrase. This is important.

ThenFlip through your flash cards many times a week. Preferably every day.
And finallyUse these expressions whenever you have the chance. Never mind
if you are having a conversation in English. Just go ahead and speak your Danish
phrases! People will love you for it!
