There are no plural forms for indefinite articles, as the are only ever used to refer to singular things. (denne), (danne) (dette) can also be used for ''this'', ''these'', or ''those''. | |||
It should be mentioned that the distinction bewteen (den) and (dan) is not always clear. Most mainland Scandinavians tend to pronounce them almost the same since they are used to only distinguishing between two grammatical genders in their native languages. In some cases in Icelandic, the Masculine and Feminine are pronounced the same, and are only clearly seperate in writing as (-inn) and (-in). | |||
It is common for both (den) and (dan) to be pronounced [dɛn]. Likewise, if an emphasis is being put on the word, it can be pronouned as [den]. This happens when the speaker is talking about a specific object, similar to the difference between saying ''the car'' and ''that car'' in English. | |||
