      Scandinavian is at least 5 different languages. For Danish try:
      www.hardenfelt.com/
      For other Scandinavian languages you can try to ask the appropriate embassy or
      local consulate.

      Other possibilities are:

        i used to visit a Danish firm once a week to give English lessons; Espersen
        in Koszalin. As i recall, English seemed generally the simpler method
        for communication between the Danish and Polish workers, though some of
        the Polish did learn Danish, and the Danish, Polish.
        Whilst trying to remember the name of the firm, I came accross other Danish
        firms in Poland: NETTO, Arla, TK Holding, Elsam, Group 4 Falck, Sonion
        Microtronic, ScanPol Int'l, Shiptrans Holding, LM Glasfiber, and of course
        Carlsberg.

      In my view, the best Scandywegian language to learn is Danish, for the
      following reasons:

      1) It's easier to get there - you don't have to cross any water or the former
      Soviet Union - it's the only continentally available scandy tongue

      2) It's an EU member, and has been in the EU for the longest of the Scandy
      countries.

      3) It has a balanced economy, with plenty of investment into Poland.

      4) It is very close to Norwegian, but Norwegian fails on points 1, 2 and 3

      5) Because it is pronounced and spoken differently to the way it is written, it
      is arguably harder than the others - if you learn Danish, you can more easily
      understand Swedes and Norwegians than you would be able to understand Danes if
      you learned Swedish.

      I never learned Swedish formally, but I actually follow spoken Swedish better
      than spoken Danish.

      6) The other reason why Danish is a good option is I can tell you from
      experience that Mike Hardenfelt (who has already joined this thread) is a damn
      good teacher. He has written a very good book to teach Danish to Poles, and the
      material has been put together in an exemplary way. Teaching languages is like
      an art form for this guy.

      So, lykke til at laere dansk!
