Assignment 1
Find alle verberne (udsagnsordene) i præteritum (datid) i nedenstående tekst, og omskriv dem til præsens (nutid). Skriv hele teksten som dit svar, og markér verberne (udsagnsordene) tydeligt som i eksemplet.
Eksempel: | So this year I was in Denmark again,…
So this year I am in Denmark again,… |
So this year I was in Denmark again, ready to report on our small activities […]. The day before St John’s Eve […] on 23 June, we drove west to Jutland and then north as far as we could go, to Skagen. On the beach in Skagen a large crowd gathered around 9 pm, though the night was cold and wet. There were speeches on a stage, the longest by someone who worked promoting Denmark as a tourist destination to German tourists. We tried to sing along to “Midsommervise”, clutching a damp song sheet, but Danish was tricky. Gusty winds meant the bonfire could only be lit from one side, and it instantly looked dangerous. Three nonchalant firemen stood by while graduating high-school students, wearing traditional white caps that made them look like sailors in a stage musical, tossed study notes into the flames. A few hardy teens stripped down to underwear and ran into the sea. The witch – more of a scarecrow – flew off to Germany when I wasn’t looking. Darkness loomed, and the rain grew heavier, so we walked home around half-past ten, soaked to the skin. Paula Morris, “Inheritance”, 2017 |
