What do you call the sponge you use to clean dishes?
Skuresvamp, which translates to scrubbing sponge.
Let me blow your mind: Danes don’t use a sponge for washing up. They would consider it very unhygienic and the traditional Anglo-Saxon washing up sponge as something you’d use to clean the toilet with.
Instead they use a brush on a sort of angled stick.
Hey! I'm danish, and I use a sponge!!! :)
Whaaaaaaaaa?????
I’ve literally never seen any Danes do that. Whereabouts in Denmark are you, if you don’t mind me asking?
Copenhagen
There's an imposter among us.
