FSI Danish by Hej Danmark follows the audio-lingual format of the US Foreign Service Institute's language courses: you hear a short conversation, repeat it line by line, work on one or two sounds, then drill until the answers come without thinking. It is not affiliated with the FSI. Each unit is two episodes: A, the conversation, and B, the drills. Do A, then B the next day, then B again. Always answer out loud, at full volume, in the gap.
The three voices are synthetic (text-to-speech): an English-speaking teacher and a female and a male Danish voice. The Danish text was written by Hej Danmark with AI assistance and is reviewed by a person before a unit is published; if you hear something a Dane would not say, write to us. The course is a pilot at about level A1 and makes no other claim about levels.
