How to say "danish" in Japanese
Choosing the right word
- nounThe pastry sense: a katakana loanword for the flaky bakery pastry English calls a danish. A less common rendering of 'danish'; think of choosing one at a bakery counter.
- デンマーク語デンマークごnounStrictly the language sense: 語 ('language') marks it as the Danish language, fitting talk of speaking, studying, or translating Danish rather than Danish people or things; a less common rendering of 'danish'.
Split by sense: 「デニッシュ」 for the pastry, 「デンマーク語」 for the Danish language; both are less common renderings of 'danish', and neither covers the general 'of Denmark' sense, as in Danish people or design.
