An excellent example of someone who marries into a family, and a culture, and embraces the experience rather than trying to make everyone else around them change.
This is such a good point. Esp marrying into a royal family, you have to learn so much and adapt to their culture, customs and language, its a sign of respect to your new country and its people. And I think the people probably love her for it to. I certainly admire her, learning a new language is hard esp when you have to give speeches and interviews, it must have been nerve wracking at first.
She’s definitely the first person I thought of when Meghan started whining. I was like… it’s not like you had to learn an entire new language and completely different culture. Mary never whined
I would agree with her father. CP Mary _has_ a little bit of a Danish accent when she speaks English. It's quite charming and also very natural - she's been immersed in that language for several years now. A sure sign of "living in both worlds". 😊
Yes, she is very charismatic for sure. It is easy to see how the Crown Prince fell for her. She is beautiful, intelligent, dignified and all the good things. ❤️ She is a great role model.
Thank you very much for posting so much about the Danish Royal Family. They are my favorites royals. My hope is that via your postings people discover this amazing family and all the wonderful work they do for relevant and important causes. IMO they are the epitome of what a royal family can and should be. A royal family that modernizes and adapts to the times while still maintaining their history and traditions. Plus they seem so relatable and down to earth. They're a joy to follow.
I'm a dane and I'm proud of Queen Mary, the way she has embraced Denmark and her support of her husband HM kong Frederik X. She is obviously a very intelligent, thoughtful and clever person.
Thank you for your wonderful channel because most of us as foreigners subscribers don’t know about danish monarchy as I read just right now it’s one of oldest in world queen Margaret 11 can be traced.

How are you doing iam new subscriber Arabic lady citizen since Christmas 2019 I began to subscribe to British and American RUclips channels we are as foreigners subscribers as overseas students want to increase our cultural level improve our English language as well first of all make friendships with people from different countries actually English is international language I found out it’s easier than our native language yes our language is beautiful but we have so many rules one single word we have several vocabularies . I just read danish language or language of Denmark is derived from Germanic languages share terms of pronunciation vocabulary grammar iam so glad to be subscriber in your channel learn about Denmark civilization and history costumes and traditions.
Yes Danish is of Germanic origin so is english we have a few words with the same pronunciation but different meanings as well,it's great U are learning English as like U said it's a world language and therefore opens U up to many different cultures,I think the Arabic script is beautiful it seems to flow effortlessly I've seen it decorating mosques as well, I'm from Australia like princess Marry and think that she is a wonderful lady and am so very proud of how well she has integrated into the Danish royal family its sometimes hard to believe she was not the one born into royalty, keep up with your English and if your writing is any indication you seem to have pretty well mastered it already and I just wanted to say that you are the type of foreigner any country would be proud to have emigrate to as the way U are so willing to integrate into the new society makes everything that much easier for U to get used to and it also helps so much when it comes to making new friends in your new homeland I just know from your openness that you truly are a good person.
When I was searching RUclips and I kept hearing Mary Donaldson's name coming up so of course I became interested because my mother's maiden name is Donaldson. That's probably a common name.
Im pretty sure thats the american pronunciation of it, and it seems danes learn a mix with majority being american style and shes imiatating to fit in.
@@randomdude4669I don't think so. A great many people in UK also get this wrong, saying PronOUnciation, despite the word being spelled pronUNciation. ..... which I find somewhat ironic😂.
@@Creteliz The two words PronOUNce and pronUnciation clearly have different second syllable spellings and sounds (one stressed and one unstressed - which partly explains the problem) but a lot of people don't listen to, or don't learn, new words - and hardly anyone checks his/her own pronunciation with a dictionary! Thus the "bad" pronunciation becomes commonplace. Many words get mangled this way, e.g. vulnerable, probably, library...
@@randomdude4669no I don’t believe it is that as I do not know one person from the US who says “pronounce-iation”. To do so is an error in, well, pronunciation of the word. It is more likely that as she continued her immersion into Danish, she lost some of her native recall of English. Which is not surprising when you become so immersed into all of things Danish as she was.
The Australian accent has to be the most malleable accent on this earth, ive heard it converted to american, english, scottish and now with a danish accent on top 😂
To be fair, when I first heard her speak publicly I didn't think of her as Aussie. I always thought her Australian-English accent sounded on the posh side. Then over the years, her Aussie-English sounded more European-English, obviously because she has had to immerse herself completely in Danish language. She's integrated for love and won hearts in Denmark so she deserves the accolades.
@@liliyabigler2941 She is the crown princess of Denmark, one day she will be queen of Denmark. Would be neat if she could speak the language - after 20 years!

Imagine what a nightmare it would have been for the Dutchess of pots&pans!?
So hard to not name names?

She does not have that at all. She sounds like an aussie trying to sound posh.
@@MoyaBrennan6825 This video is from 20 years ago when she first moved to Denmark
@@MoyaBrennan6825 I totally agree with you, not a Danish accent but Australian accent.
Her father is very charming as well.
Runs in the family, I suppose...
She has a natural regal essence. 👸
She's very natural and charming. Has a very winsome personality like the Duchess of Cambridge.
Yes, she is very charismatic for sure. It is easy to see how the Crown Prince fell for her. She is beautiful, intelligent, dignified and all the good things. ❤️ She is a great role model.

I noticed her danish accent right away.
she is the most beautiful being as is her husband - idyllic couple/family
Crown Princess Mary has something in her accent her Father is right , I have such admiration for this beautiful Lady ....God Bless always 🇨🇦
Så imponert med henne. Stor respekt. Hun skal bli en dyktig dronning!
I'm a dane and I'm proud of Queen Mary, the way she has embraced Denmark and her support of her husband HM kong Frederik X. She is obviously a very intelligent, thoughtful and clever person.
In my opinion Mary is very smart. Her father seems to be a very intelligent man too.
He is a professor of mathematics so I think he's got a pretty good brain 🧠
Eres excelente muy amable y buena persona Educada bella persona te deseo todo lo bueno un abrazo con mucho cariño bendiciones gracias

The monarch is Margrethe II, not “11”. Regnal numbers are expressed in Roman numerals.

Danish/Swedish/Norwegian are specifically North Germanic. English is West Germanic.

Go and look at her father's speech from her wedding day U will see the Donaldson clan were very important in Scottish history

It was interesting to me that she said “pronounce-iation” instead of “pronunce-iation”.

she's a babe
And a certain someone couldn’t even learn to curtesy
Hear aussie accents come through even though she’s trying to use a british accent
She said pro-nounce-ci-ation instead of pronunciation, ohh dear , back to English Classes for Mary
That’s how we say it in the uk, both are correct
@@Izzy04_ Both are NOT correct. It's spelt, and pronounced, "proNUNciation."

The truth: Mary speaks Danish very, very poorly. She never learned it properly - neither grammatically nor the pronunciation.
i think you are exaggerating a bit by saying she speaks Danish VERY VERY POORLY.. Don´t belittle other people´s efforts
@@hyggesnak Let´s be real and honest. She does not speak Danish very well, does she?
Many thousands of Danes disagree with you, so *shrugs.*
@@liliyabigler2941 She is the crown princess of Denmark, one day she will be queen of Denmark. Would be neat if she could speak the language - after 20 years!
She speaks poorly in this video. The footage used must be quite old. She speaks much better Danish now.
