Danglish is a form of speech or writing that combines elements of Danish and English. The word Danglish is a portmanteau of Danish and English and has been in use since 1990. A variant form is Denglish, recorded since 2006. The term is used in Denmark to refer to the increasingly strong influx of English or pseudo-English vocabulary into Danish. It is an example of code switching, much like Spanglish in the United States.While it has been argued that the influx of English words, similar to the import of Latin and French words in the past, makes the language more expressive, it remains controversial in many sectors of society, notably with older people, who are often less accustomed to English terms.
