Description
What makes hygge-happy Danes, their humour, society and language so 'special'?
Explore useful insights and toe-curling incidents with professor emeritus Lita Lundquist, language and humour researcher at Copenhagen Business School, and British-born, Danish-based Helen Dyrbye, freelance proofreader/translator and principal author of The Xenophobe's Guide to the Danes - while learning to navigate humour better in international waters.
"Enjoyable and amusing reading. Backed by meaningful qualitative research, it reaches a broad audience. Anyone dealing with people from other nationalities in formal and working settings may benefit from the reflections expressed in this book."
The European Journal of Humour Research.
