And by the way, there's something else: You must promise us one thing, mum and dad, you may not imitate us young! — For if you do, you will look so funny. — you may not try to run way from your age, for you can't do that anyway.

1981, Mogens Wolstrup, Vild hyben: danske forfattere skriver om jalousi

But it is not your fault, Ditte says. You are young and intelligent. You are ugly and amazingly beautiful. You have the courage! You are on the right path with your show. I feel with your rebellion, and perhaps for that reason, I couldn't take any more. Your skin is smooth, you started in time.

Men det er ikke jeres skyld, siger Ditte. I er unge og kloge. I er grimme og fantastisk smukke. I har modet! I er på rette vej med jeres show. Jeg føler med jeres oprør, og måske derfor kunne jeg ikke klare mere. Jeres hud er glat, I er startet i tide.

Og lidt senere ”I har hørt at det er sagt: øje for øje og tand for tand. Men jeg siger jer, at I må ikke sætte jer imod det onde; men dersom nogen giver dig et slag på din højre kind, da vend ham også den anden til! ...

In Old West Norse, the nominative and accusative of this pronoun has been replaced by another pronoun, hverr, but the dative and genitive are still extant: hveim, hves. From Proto-Germanic *hwaz (“who”), cognate with English who, German wer, Gothic 𐍈𐌰𐍃 (ƕas). The pronoun goes back to Proto-Indo-European *kʷos, *kʷis.

From Old Danish thænnæ, Old Norse þenna, accusative of sjá. A derivation with a deictic suffix from the demonstrative den, from accusative Old Norse þann, accusative of sá. The neuter form dette goes back to Old Danish thættæ, Old Norse þetta, derived from the demonstrative det, from Old Danish thæt, Old Norse þat. The plural disse goes back to Old Danish thæssæ, Old Norse þessa, derived from de, from Old Danish the, Old Norse þá, but with a different suffix, which is also used in the singular in the Runic Old Danish form ᚦᚬᚾᛋᛁ (þąnnsi). The s-suffix also occurs in the corresponding West Germanic pronouns, cf. English this and German dieser.

I sit brev af 21. september svarede tsaren¹⁴, at det var en udmærket idé at overlade Stettin til den preussiske konge, hvis denne herved kunne drages over på de allieredes side.

For the expression, compare Old English nāthwylc (“somebody”) (from *ne wāt hwylċ), Middle High German neizwer (“somebody”) (from *ne weiz wer), Latin nescio quis (“somebody”).
The Danish form has -n from the old accusative, cf. Old Norse nǫkkurn, whereas the plural the old -r- has been replaced by -l- in the plural nogle, cf. Old Norse nǫkkura, Swedish några. The neuter noget contains a different pronoun than the rest of the paradigm: Old Norse nǫkkut, Norwegian Nynorsk noko, Swedish något, from Proto-Germanic *ne wait ek hwat.


noget

From Old Danish nokut (also nokot, nokæt, noghet), neuter form of nokær, cognate with Norwegian Nynorsk noko and Swedish något. Grammaticalization of the phrase Proto-Germanic *ne wait ek hwat (or alternatively formed by analogy as a neuter to nokær within early Old Norse). See more at nogen.

In most Germanic languages, it is an inflected adjective, but in modern Danish (and Norwegian), it is uninflected. In archaizing poetry, one may meet the possessive jer (jert, jere), which is probably reintroduced analogically to vor (“our”).

your (2nd person plural, possessive case)


hverandre

[ʋɛɐ̯ˈɑnd̥ʁɐ]

[ʋæɐ̯ˈɑnd̥ʁɐ]

From hver (“each”) + andre (“others”). Compare Swedish varandra, varann.

If Svante's was both newer and more expensive than that one, then why did he not steal it? "Do they know with certainty that it was a man?" "No, but it does sound too ridiculous to go and say 'they' about Svante's murderer."

Saa han taled, og heftig fortørnedes Alle tilhobe.

1837, Christian Wilster, Odysseen, book 17, v. 481:

Da dette kom det urolige folk for øren, knurrede det og erklærede, at det aldrig vilde böje nakke under et så tyngende trælleåg , hvorved fast alle til hobe, som dyrkede Kristus, kom til at stå under en trykkende præstevælde.

1880, P. Kierkegaard, transl., Præsten Helmolds Slavekrønike, page 234:

When this came to the notice of the unsettled people, they growled and declared that they would never bow their neck under such heavy yoke of slavery, by which almost all who worshipped Christ had come under the oppressive power of the priests.

Hvis det efter et vanvittigt Kapløb for at have mere end andre eller have det meste sluttelig føler, at alt til Hobe blot er forældet, trættende eller livløst Legetøj eller Liggendefæ, der ikke mætter, ingen Livsnæring indeholder, — hvad saa?

1938, H. Boringvad, Livsnæring og Livsfilosofi, page 41:

So if, after an insane race to have more than others or most, it finally feels that all of it was outdated, boring or lifeless toys or material property that doesn't satisfy, that doesn't contain any nutrition of life — so what?
