Danish is a tricky language

We love this photo.  Before you start thinking we're very rude, may we just remind you that the word "slut" in Danish means "the end".  By this account, you will also find the end of the words at every fairytale in Denmark:  "And they lived happily ever after..... SLUT".

Slut Spurt actually means "the race to the end" and in this particular context, it refers to the race towards the end of the sale. In English, well, check out the Urban Dictionary.

Read more about the joys of learning Danish on this website we found.
