Excellent. I have to go back another generation before we get to half Danish... My mother's father (morfar if you've learned any of the language) was half Danish, half Norwegian. My mother's mother (mormor) was fully (or nearly) Swedish, her parents emigrated from Blekinge, in the far south. I have recently discovered that a sole Finn (so far) infiltrated our lineage in that area - in the early 1700s. So, yeah, I say Scandinavian rather than a particular country much of the time, because the answer to "which country?" is "yes." (I haven't found any Icelandics yet.)
No, but half of my ancestry is. I have always felt close to my Viking heritage.
Cool we got something in common my father is half Danish..
