- Report: The Queen of Denmark Margrethe II and her French husband Prince Henrik have been coming here for decades. Denmark is famous for its openness and the press is invited along to meet them
I’ve never heard her speak English and her English is absolutely impeccable. Honestly, it’s almost impossible to tell that she’s not from Britain!
Well, she studied in London when she was young. Still impressive I guess ...
what a lady, she is a thoroughly modern monarch - great to see and a great example
QUEEN Margrethe II IS THE BEST
What a lovely and respecteful lady ...God save and bless the Queen Margaret II , and all the Danish Nation .
The Queen of Denmark is a very gracious Lady, as are all the European monarchs. When one looks at the candidates for the US Presidency, thank God we still have a King or Queen as Head of State in several European countries.
The reason why she sounds so british is because she spent her studies in england.
Her grandparents on her mothers side was British
Wow--I knew Margrethe spoke English, but I didn't know it was that good. She sounds almost like Queen Elizabeth.
She's her second cousin twice removed.
Denmark gives openness to the world -- to muslims -- and they want to try and make it into the countries they're leaving. Just because Danes are white does not mean they're not worth protecting their rights and culture. God bless Denmark forever and always.
Denmark is the only country I want to visit.
I hope you get to go here sometime.👍🇩🇰
@BritishTrekkie952 Most Danish schools teach British, as links to Britain were very close until the end of the 90s, when our PMs started thinking more highly about the US.
Hers is a very good imitation, yes, but her intonation patterns are somewhat Danish. Supposedly, her French is impeccable, which is not difficult to imagine with a Frenchman for a husband.
i love queen margrethe!! jeg elsker hende rigtig meget!! hun er den bedste!!
@Lindshm. I agree Monarchs should be head of state and not politicians. I too would pay more taxes to keep the monarchy. I lost my country due to politicians. I think the Denmark Monarchy are wonderful. Having watched the video of the wedding of HRH Frederik to Mary Donaldson, though in the old days commoners did not marry Royals, seems to have changed a lot now. I think they are well matched couple. God Bless to them.

@tattyboo83 shes not THAT modern. from what ive heard she still uses oldschool landline phone, one of those where you spin that thing to dial up o.O because she refuses to get a mobile. i hear she dont want a computer either:)
Frogsmere She studied in London in her youth.
3rd cousin of HM Queen Elizabeth ll
I was nearly adopted by her grand-nephew.
wow she speaks like perfect english!
Your the Nazi. She is great women. Denmark has have many great kings and queens. I especially admire Christian X who was the greatest symbol of resistance against the Nazis in WWII
I choose to recognise Queen Margarethe II as my new queen, I reject Charles III.
Hope you enjoyed your year, times up
RedSeaCoral,
Where has Denmark "such infectious hatred toweard fellow human beings"?
So, all you Danes: Is this French prince's Danish as good as the Danish queen's English?
No! Absolutely NOT!
You should be more embarressed about your spelling. I'm a fan of Margrethe II. She seems to be a nice lady, if a bit stiff. It would be funny if she was packing since she insists on even carrying that darn purse to a press conference outside on the patio!
Lellobeetle She is very nice and a bit shy. That can come over as stiff. She isn't really.
She is queen Elizabeth’s the ll cousin
Is it just me or does she sound British?
Tom Mayer she studied in the UK when she was younger
Tom Mayer British is a very fine and respectful accent and it sounds like every British person is Royal, she kind of has an accent because in the 19’s danes had a British sounding accent to Also Sound respectful and that stuff
So she has been on the Throne for a long time and has the same accent while speaking English
RedSeaCoral,
No, I would not support a call for the destruction of a people.
However if you had a wellfounded point that would insult black people (can't think of one) I'd still support the right to say it.
Muslims have the same free speach rights as non-muslims but that does not mean everybody has to agree with you.
RedSeaCoral,
Popular speach doesn't need protection,
unpopular speach does.
I think religion is insulting and degrading,
but I don't want to ban it.
Does she speak French?
Yes, she was somewhat fluent in french for many years. However, after her husband's passing, she has admitted her french has become rusty.
mawyatah,
In Denmark we have both :).
Yet our Monarchs power is very limited.
A Leader should be chosen by the people,
not birthright.
There sure is a lot of enmity in the comments. I guess it's to be expected, right in the wake of the mohammed-drawings. Still, those had nothing to do with our Queen, the journalist just asked for her opinion on it.
agreed i dont really care for us presidents
Good English
she sounds English? whyyy?
Her majesty is only reoeareling what her government tell her . She us politically neutral and must never interfere in politics.shw us right about one thing the right to freedom of expression no matter how distasteful it may be.sje is not responsible for the actions of her people if an individual wants to be an araehole that's up to them don't blame the queen

@gringodeltoro1 . I find your language disgusting you may have your opinions, but do modify the language there is no need for it. If you lost a country due to politicians you would think twice about Monarchy. Bring back the Monarchy....
;l9
it really is a shame, for a country so beautiful and succesful in many ways to have such infectious hatred towards fellow human beings. it really is a contradiction.
no one asked the queen of denmark to agree with muslims, only that she and other like minded people show common courtesy and respect, whats the point of mindlessly insulting people?
and no, insult NEVER has a "wellfounded notion" its pure ignorance and bigotry. everyone and anyone with the smallest amount of reason can figure that out.
as much as i love and admire denmark and its great system of social security, i have disagree with this matter entirely. freedom of speach is a good thing, but when takenout of proportion to the point of insulting and degrading a religion, any religion, it passes the point of civility and becomes bigotry.
the quuen should know better than to say "oh well we should be able to say whatever we want", along with freedom of speach there's something called respect and decensy too.
I really hope you've become wiser over the last 9 years because that's some absolutely BS you've left there.
Freedom of speech is all about protecting unpopular speech, popular speech needs no protection at all. Provocative speech, critical speech, "blasphemous" (which is a nonsensical concept anyway) speech etc. is what needs protection.
If you back down there, you just have no freedom of speech left at all.
@elisabethkohler33
Yes I must be!! - Im a danish citizen, who find it hard to understand, why my daughter is being born into slavery.
I never voted for her, and my daughter will never be able to chose her leader either.
Not even nature, opholds such a perverse system.
You have misunderstood it all ,if you call the Queen the leader of the country she is not if you do not like the way things are going in Denmark you better go and vote for what ever party you prefere that is who are in power
omg.. this makes me fucking embarrised about being danish:/
Why? I'm not Danish, but if she were my sovereign I would be most proud.
@voiceofthera yeah, why??
The monarchy is not loved by everyone.
