om sproget / on language

Jeg vil skrive bloggen på både engelsk og dansk. Hvis du kan ikke forstå ordene, fortæl mig, og jeg vil forsøge at oversætte. Hvis du er dansk, vil jeg gerne fortælle dig, jeg endnu er ved at lære sproget, og mit dansk er ikke særlig godt. Hvis du gerne vil hjælpe mig med ordene, det er rart og tak for det. Min email er somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

This blog will be written in both English and Danish. If you, as a reader, have trouble with one of those languages and would like a translation, please let me know, and I will do my best to oblige. If you are a Danish reader, please know that I am just learning, and my Danish is far from perfect. If you would like to suggest corrections please do so. Email me at somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

Og nye navner

Last night I found out that since I am now a graduate student (as opposed to an undergraduate student) the large paper I thought I had due is in fact not due for three more weeks. This means that I could have gone out of the apartment Tuesday (I did not) and that I could have taken the time to plan a good show yesterday (I did anyway, but I could have done better).

A note about the Wednesday show -- though I usually “narrate” the evening programs in Danish, yesterday was all English, due to the fact that I was joined by a non-Danish-speaking guest host, Becca. Even though she declined to share Mulan quotes on air -- we didn’t, in fact, talk much at all -- I found the program pretty enjoyable.

Spillelisten:
1. Apple Blossom – Emily Jane Powers
2. I Grunden er Afgrunden Grunden – Thunderbear (DK)
3. Lord Anthony – Belle & Sebastian
4. Är Du Fortfarande Arg? – Säkert! (SV)
5. Miles and Miles – Said the Shark (DK)
6. Mission to the Moon – Harmony Boys (DK) -- now called SMALL
7. Arrows – Einar Stray (N)
8. Byen Driver – Under Byen (DK)
9. Tonight – Oliver North Boy Choir (DK)
10. Farrah – Action Biker (SV)
11. Oh! You Pretty Things – Au Revoir Simone

If you haven’t heard that last one, especially, you owe it to yourself to do it. It’s on the podcast, of course, or you can stream it here.
