BTW Danish is not worse than English just compare the <ou> in though and through - can phonetics be more sadistic?

Selvom nogle dialekter kan være charmerende, så synes jeg nu at den nuværende trend, hvor dialekterne langsomt nærmer sig en fælles national dialekt er en god ting. Det gider på sigt større incentiv til at reformere skriftsproget.
Although some dialects have their charm, I do think the present trend of the dialects slowly nearing a common national dialect is a good thing. It provides better incentive to reform the written language in the long run.
