| A Danish Macedonian in need of his roots. |
| Delinquent_168 |
Hi lads.
I'm a danish born macedonian, I've been searching for a while for a course / school to learn macedonian (my parents only spoke danish) so all i know of the language is "swear-words" and that dossen't help it alot, if you know what i mean :]
and the last macedonian school closed in '95 in denmark so thats out of the question :[
I'm finding my self in more and more in an personality dilema, becourse i know i'm macedonian but several of my friends (none macedonian) speaks more than me *Sucks...
So if any of you got a link or anything for an 'allmost' lost macedonian ?!
i would apreciated it alot !
tia.

hey there. interesting! A Danish Macedonian, that's a first:D
Are you interested in learing the language through a university course?
I don't know of any Macedonian learning language sites......sorry, i'm sure other's here do though. |
| bliznak |
Delinguent 168, maybe you can search for Macedonian-Danish (private school) there...
|
| Delinquent_168 |
hehe, yeah i know im special [:D]
dejan >> yeah its the 'verbal' part of the language im intre. in learning 1st grade class, would even get me going *hehe
bliznak >> Well privat school's here is rediculess expencive
and private teachers are even more expencive.
Self learning - school books (smaller grades) english-macedonian translated. links, anything?
i mean i would love to pay to learn but i dont like the thought of going bankrupt [8)]
My worst fear is my pride and culture dying with me, instead of me passing it to my children.
Please help an Macedonian thats allmost gone :|

Delinquent_168,
was the teacher at the school in Denmak by any chance called Dimko Simonoski and had a son Dragan and daughter Gordana ?
|
| Delinquent_168 |
I remember the name 'Dimko' i don't recall the last name nor his childrens names just remember he had an daughter and moved to australia, And a female teacher 'Frosina' she moved to germany if im not mistaken.
Does the Name: "kostovski" say you anything ?

simonoski may have been his old,old family surname, i can find out his recent surname,
all i remember we used to call his son by a nickname "SIMONSEN" cos of his family simonoski
i will have to ask my mother and let you know of his current surname
are you in kopenhagen? |
| Delinquent_168 |
yeah, i live in Copenhagen
Thou the macedonian comunity is very small here
(most imigrants here have pakistani or turkish origin)
compared to sweden where i have family their comunity is large. |

It is ezy |
| Delinquent_168 |
Thanks guys.
I'll go book hunting monday :]
Phrases is a start i guess thanks Dejan. |
| dejan |
Yeah it is a good book. The phrases are all formal, although there are some words that appear to be incorrect, but that is only very few. |

Du skriver att du bor i Köpenhamn, vet inte om du kan förstå svenska så jag skriver väl på engelska... Have u asked in Denmark if they perhaps know if there is any macedonian classes in Sweden, cause from Copenhagen to Malmö there is about 20 minutes with train or car. Monthly it would cost u about 48 euro with train. I know they had classes for macedonians in Malmö but now I´m not sure. Hoppas jag kunnat hjälpa dig något. |
| peperutka |
I dunno if he read MY POST but you can actually order a beginners macedonian, and intermediate macedonian text book online (which I provided a link for) that will help you out tons... |

welcome. There are many macedonians here, dejan is an examlple of one, that have significantly improved their understanding of the macedonian language. I would suggest starting to read some macedonian newspapers online (the english versions for right now), and www.vmacedonia.com, www.nacedonia.org. I wouldn't mind sending you a cd with some macedonian songs if you promise to listen to them :). |
| Delinquent_168 |
Shema>> Hi and thanks !
I've acually been reading alot of those newspapers and general info about the country e.g.
'www.mymacedonia.net - www.macedonianews.com - macedonia.org' aso.
My quest/urge for infomation began in the beginning of the kosovo war (been reading ever since)
maybe that's why my 'crisis' is getting bigger since i can't express my self when im in macedonia (kumanovo) visiting family and i'm getting older and more aware of my idendity/origin.
I would love to get the CD and yes i promise to listen to it :] |
