I am going to happy you ) - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog It just struck me that the Danish word for happiness (gl?de) is both a noun and a verb. So in Danish you can experience happiness (f?le gl?de)?but you can also happy someone else (gl?de en anden). As in: I think this will happy my spouse (det vil gl?de min partner) or small acts can happy others (sm? ting kan gl?de andre). I dont want to read too much into that linguistic quirk, but it is interesting because it goes to the heart of what happiness is i.e. very much something we do for each other. Can you think of another language that has this feature? Also, the same word is also used to say that you are looking forward to something. Jeg gl?der mig til jul literally translates I happy myself about Christmas and?means Im looking forward to Christmas. Thanks for visiting my blog.
